Increasing of the demand for energy savings for buildings, thermal barrier films have more attracted. In particular, as heat loss through the windows have been pointed out to major problems in the construction and automobile industries, the research is consistently conducted for improving the thermal blocking performance for windows. The main theory of the technology is reflect the infrared rays to help the cut off the inflow of the solar energy in summer and outflow of the heat from indoors in winter to save the energy on cooling and heating. Furthermore, this is well known for prevent glare, reduces fading caused by harmful ultraviolet radiation and easy to apply on constructed buildings if it made as a film. In addition to these advantages, apply the transparent electrode to eliminate condensation by heating. Generally ITO is used as a transparent electrode, but is has a low stability in environmental factors. In this study, ITO and its alternative, ATO, is deposited by sputtering system and then the characteristic is evaluated each material based thermal barrier thin film. The optical property was measured on wide range of wavelength (200 nm 2500 nm) to know the transparency in visible wavelength and reflectivity in IR wavelength range. The electrical property was judged by sheet resistivity. Finally the changes of the temperature and current of the deposited film was observed while applying a DC power.

This study has been analyzed the sound performance of the noise barriers with respect to the configuration of the front perforated panel geometries and the filled absorption materials. Noise barriers' acoustic performance should be required to meet 0.7 of NRC value at least. The global absorbing performance of the barriers have been investigated by changing the opening ratio of the front perforated panel and the absorbing characteristics of the absorbing material using two microphone method. Therefore, It it possible to obtain to increase acoustic performance of the specific frequency ranges by designing the perforate rates of the front panel and absorbing characteristics of the absorbing materials inside, as well. This study try to find out the possibilities of applying the absorbing noise barrier to railway usage.

Schottky barrier thin film transistors (SB-TFT) on polycrystalline silicon(poly-Si) are fabricated by platinum silicided source/drain for p-type SB-TFT. High quality poly-Si film were obtained by crystallizing the amorphous Si film with excimer laser annealing (ELA) or solid phase crystallization (SPC) method. The fabricated poly-Si SB-TFTs showed low leakage current level and a large on/off current ratio larger than $10^5$. Significant improvement of electrical characteristics were obtained by the additional forming gas annealing in 2% $H_2/N_2$ ambient, which is attributed to the termination of dangling bond at the poly-Si grain boundaries as well as the reduction of interface trap states at gate oxide/poly-Si channel.

DBD(Dielectric Barrier Discharge) plasma in air is well established for the production of large quantities of ozone and is more recently being applied to aftertreatment processes for HAPs(Hazardous Air Pollutants). Aim of this work is to determine design and operating parameters of a hybrid air cleaning system. DBD and ESP(Electrostatic Precipitator) are used as nano particle charger and collector, respectively. Pelletized MnO$_2$ catalyst or activated carbon is used fer ozone decomposition or adsorption material. AC voltage of 7～10 KV(rms) and 60 Hz is used as DBD plasma source. DC - 8 KV is applied to the ESP for particle collection. The overall particle collection efficiency for the hybrid system is over 85 % under 0.64 m/s face velocity. Ozone decomposition efficiency with pelletized MnO$_2$ catalyst or activated carbon packed bed is over 90 % when the face velocity is under 0.4 m/s in dry air.

The nitrone-based free radical trapping reagent, $\alpha$-phenyl-n-tert-butyl nitrone (PBN) has been proposed as therapeutic agent for stroke. We used this for model drug of development of new drug for neuroprotection. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability of PBN in Sprague-Dawly (SD) rats. The BBB transport of PBN was investigated in SD rats using internal carotid artery perfusion (ICAP) method at a rate of 4 mι/min for 15 second. We also obtained pharmacokinetic parameters of PBN using single intravenous injection technique. When we estimated BBB permeability of PBN with ICAP method, the brain volume of distribution of PBN was 60.0 $\pm$ 12.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ι. The brain uptake of PBN after IV injection at 120 min was 0.15 $\pm$ 0.01%ID/g. The PBN was transported to the brain through the BBB well in rats, because PBN is small molecule (MW 177) and lipid-soluble (log P 1.23) compound.

Radiant barrier systems(RES) constructed with low emissivity materials bounded by an open air space can be used to reduce the net radiation transfer between two surfaces. To analyze the heat transfer characteristics of the radiant barrier systems which consist of a single-glass and radiation barriers, a simple theoretical model based on energy balances was suggested. And the model was validated by means of the experimental results. Using a guarded hot box, the temperatures of layers in selected RES and energy use for each cases were measured. The results show that the model well explained the heat transfer characteristics of those RES. Also, the heat transfer coefficient correlations considering natural and forced convection heat transfer ware suggested. It is found that the heat transfer efficiency of a RBS with aluminium surface improved up to 66.6% over that of a single glazing system.

The Ni/SiC Schottky diode was fabricated with the $\alpha$-SiC thin film grown by the ICP-CVD method on a (111) Si wafer. $\alpha$-SiC film has been grown on a carbonized Si layer in which the Si surface was chemically converted to a very thin SiC layer achieved using an ICP-CVD method at $700^{\circ}C$. To reduce defects between the Si and $\alpha$-SiC, the surface of the Si wafer was slightly carbonized. The film characteristics of $\alpha$-SiC were investigated by employing TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy) and FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). Sputterd Ni thin film was used as the anode metal. The boundary status of the Ni/SiC contact was investigated by AES (Auger Electron Spectroscopy) as a function of the annealing temperature. It is shown that the ohmic contact could be acquired beyond a 100$0^{\circ}C$ annealing temperature. The forward voltage drop at 100A/cm was I.0V. The breakdown voltage of the Ni/$\alpha$-SiC Schottky diode was 545 V, which is five times larger than the ideal breakdown voltage of the silicon device. As well, the dependence of barrier height on temperature was observed. The barrier height from C- V characteristics was higher than those from I-V.

Environmental barrier coatings(EBCs) are applied to the SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites(CMCs) in order to protect CMCs from being corroded with water vapor by combustion gas in gas turbine engines. Ytterbium silicates, such as ytterbium monosilicate and ytterbium disilicate, are ones of the candidate materials for EBCs due to their excellent resistance to water vapor corrosion as well as thermal-expansion match with SiC. In this study, ytterbium silicates are fabricated with 2-step solid-state synthesis targeting ytterbium disilicate. After synthesizing ytterbium monosilicate, the mixtures of ytterbium monosilicate and SiO₂ are heat-treated and densified by using pressureless sintering or hot pressing with a variety of heating conditions. The phase formation, thermal expansion, and oxidation behavior are examined with fabricated specimens. The final densified bodies are found to be composites between ytterbium monosilicate and ytterbium disilicate with different ratios, which results in 4.43 to 6.72×10^-6/K range of coefficients of thermal expansion. The probability of these ytterbium silicates for EBC applications is also discussed.

Corrosion properties of dissimilar friction stir welded 6061 aluminum and HT590 steel were investigated to understand effects of galvanic corrosion. As cathode when coupled, HT590 was cathodically protected. However, the passivation of AA6061 made the aluminum alloy cathode temporarily, which leaded to corrosion of HT590. From the EIS analysis showing Warburg diffusion plot in Nyquist plots, it can be inferred that the stable passivation layer was formed on AA6061. However, the weld as well as HT590 did not show Warburg diffusion plot in Nyquist plots, suggesting that there was no barrier for corrosion or even if it exists, the barrier had no function for preventing and/or retarding charge transport through the passivation layer. The open circuit potential measurements showed that the potential of the weld was similar to that of HT590, which lied in the pitting region for AA6061, making the aluminum alloy part of the weld keep corrosion state. That resulted in the cracked oxide film on AA6061 of the weld, which could not play a role of corrosion barrier.
