A homologous series of side chain liquid crystalline polymers, poly [1-{4-(4'-cyanophenylazo)phenoxyalkyloxy}ethylene]s(CAPETn, where n, the number of methylene units in the spacer, is $2{\sim}10$) were synthesized from poly(vinyl alcohol) and 1-{4-(4'-cyanophenylazo)phenoxy}alkylbromides(CAPBn, n=$2{\sim}10$), and their thermotropic liquid crystalline phase behaviors were investigated. The CAPBn with n of $2{\sim}5$ did not show any liquid crystalline behavior, while those with n of 6 and $7{\sim}10$ showed enantiotropic and monotropic nematic phases, respectively. In contrast, among the CAPETn polymers, only CAPET5 exhibited an enantiotropic nematic phase, while other polymers showed monotropic nematic phases. The isotropic-nematic transition temperatures of CAPETns and their entropy variation at the phase transition that were higher values than those of CAPBns, demonstrated a typical odd-even effect as a function of n. These phase transition behaviors were disscussed in terms of the 'virtual trimer model' by Imrie. The mesophase properties of CAPETns were largely different from those reported for the polymers in which the (cyanophenylazo) phenoxy groups are attached to polyacrylate, polymethacrylate, and polystyrene backbones through polymethylene spacers. The results indicate that the mode of chemical linkage of the side group with the main chain plays an important role in the formation, stabilization, and type of mesophase.

Amorphous silicon films of large area have been crystallized by a line shape excimer laser beam of one dimensional scanning with a gaussian profile in the scanning direction. In order to characterize the crystalline phase transition of thickness variables in excimer laser annealing(ELA), angle wrapping method was used. And also to characterize the residual stresses of crystalline phase transition in the case of angle wrapped-crystalline silicon on corning 7059 glass, polarized raman spectroscopies were measured at various laser energy density and substrate temperature. The residual stress varies from $9.0{\times}10^9$ to $9.9{\times}10^9$, and from $9.9{\times}10^9$ to $1.2{\times}10^10$dyne/${cm}^2$ of the substrate temperature at room temperature and varies from $8.1{\times}10^9$ to $9.0{\times}10^9$, and from $9.0{\times}10^9$ to $9.9{\times}10^9$dyne/${cm}^2$ of the substrate temperature at $400^{\circ}C$ as a function of direction from surface to substrate. According to the direction from the surface in liquid phase to the interface and from the interface to near the substrate in solid phase of recrystallized Si thin film, respectively. Thus, the stress is increased from(Liquid phase to solid phase) with phase transition.

The crystal structure of surface coatings on Al1050 alloy by PEO (Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation), were investigated. The electrolyte for PEO was Na-Si-P system solution. The main crystalline phase were $\gamma$-alumina and $\alpha$-alumina. Crystallinity was increased with applied voltage and applied time. The dominant crystalline phase were affected not only chemical composition of Al alloy substrate and electrolyte, but also the +/- ratio of applied voltage.

The preparation of $PbTiO_3$ powder was carried out using the oxide starting material by hydrothermal method. The powder of a crystalline phase with perovskite structure was synthesized. The optimum conditions for the preparation of powder were as follows; hydrothermal solvent; 8M-KOH or 8M-NaOH, reaction temperature; 250~$270^{\circ}C$, run time; 10 h. The ,shape of synthesized powders were well developed crystalline faces with specific surface area of about 2.3 $\textrm m^2$/g in KOH solution and about 5.0 $\textrm m^2$/g in NaOH solution. The cell parameters of powder were a = 3.90$\AA$, c = 4.14 $\AA$ and cell volume was 57.30 $\AA^3$. The cell ratio (c/a) of powder was the same as the theoretical ratio with c/a = 1.06 and the phase transition temperature(Tc) of the powders was about $470^{\circ}C$.

We have investigated the crystallinity, preferential ordering, and interfacial stability of 1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylene-hexanitrile (HATCN) thin film interconnected with organic/inorganic multilayer. At the region close to the organic-organic interface, HATCN formed low crystalline order with substantial amorphous phase. As film growth continued, HATCN stacked with high crystalline phase. After a sputtering deposition of the indium zinc oxide (IZO) layer on top of HATCN/organic layer, the volume fraction of preferentially ordered HATCN crystals increased without any structural deterioration. In addition, the HATCN surface was kept quite stable by preserving the sharp interface between HATCN and sputtering deposited IZO layers.

High-quality one-dimensional GaN nanorods and nanowires were synthesized on Ni-coated c-plan sapphire substrate using halide vapor-phase epitaxy (HVPE). Their structure and optical properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence techniques. Full substrate coverage of densely packed, uniform, straight and aligned one-dimensional GaN nanowires with a diameter of 80nm were grown at $700{\sim}900^{\circ}C$. The X-ray diffraction patterns, transmission electron microscopic image, and selective area electron diffraction patterns indicate that the one-dimensional GaN nanostructures are a pure single crystalline and preferentially oriented in the [001] direction. We observed high optical quality of GaN nanowires by photoluminescence analysis.

Polymer electronics is the one of the most promising way to realize the flexible electronics and many studies made remarkable progress to achieve the improvement in performance of polymer electronics comparable to current silicon-based technology. PBTTT is conjugated semiconducting polymer with highly ordered, chain-extended crystalline microstructures and shows high field effect mobilities above 0.1 $cm^2/Vs$. We studied PBTTTs FETs phase and explored methods to control channel interface in various device structures. Especially, in PBTTTs' unique nano-ribbon phase, we could obtain high mobilities of up to 0.4 $cm^2/Vs$, which was not reached before. Alignment of PBTTTs film was carried out using zone casting and anisotropy of mobilities in parallel and perpendicular to the polymer chain direction was investigated. Optical anisotropy in aligned nano-ribbon PBTTT FETs was also studied using a polarized optical absorption.

As the fundamental research on preparation of fine single crystalline ferroxaplana by means of glass-crystallization methods using steel twin-roller, the properties of ferroxplana crystallized from glass were studied. Most of the specimens quenched by twin-roller at about 130$0^{\circ}C$ were glass phase, the crystallization of these glasses underwent multi-steps and ferroxplana phase was only stable in the temperature range of 88$0^{\circ}C$ to 95$0^{\circ}C$. Above 95$0^{\circ}C$ ferroxplana begines to be decomposed in glass. Ferroxplana had such magnetic properties as M8=29emu/g, MHC=166Oe, and Curie Temperature, Tc=610$\pm$5K.

We have performed Liquid Chromatography-Solid Phase Extraction-NMR (LC-SPE-NMR) analysis for liquid crystalline mixture and elucidated the structures of selected components by NMR spectra. Combining the results of one-dimensional 1H experiments as well as homonuclear and heteronuclear two-dimensional experiments, we could analyze the molecular structure of the liquid crystal singles whose structure had not been interpretable by mass spectrometry alone.

The Spray-ICP technique uses the ICP(Inductively Coupled Plasma) of ultra-high temperature which is produced by r.f power. The ICP is well-kwown as a clean heat source for the preparation of pure ceramic particles because the ICP is a electrodeless-thermal plasma without contamination. In this study,{{{{ { SnO}_{2 } }}}} particles were sythesized from metal salt solution by Spray-ICP technique. The effects of concentration of solution, collecting location of powders were investicated. The prepared {{{{ { SnO}_{2 } }}}} particles from each concentration of solution had same crystalline phase(tetragonal {{{{ { SnO}_{2 } }}}}) a nd the mean size decreased in proportion to the increase of solution concentration. Each {{{{ { SnO}_{2 } }}}} p owders collector in reactor and electrostatic collector had same crystalline phase and morphologies. The mean size of {{{{ { SnO}_{2 } }}}} p articles prepared by Spray-ICP technique was below 30nm.
