We have carried out two-beam interference experiment to form holographic grating on amorphous $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ single-laver, $MgF_{2}/As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ muliti-layer. In this study holographic grating formed using He-Ne laser(632.8nm) under different polarization state(intensity, phase polarization holography). The diffraction efficiency was obtained by first order intensity. The maximum diffraction efficiency of $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ single-laver was 0.8% and The maximum diffraction efficiency of $MgF_{2}/As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ multi-layer(multi-layer I, multi-layer II) were 1.4% and 3.1%.

Garbon steel(SM35C) was gas nitrocarburized at $580^{\circ}C$ in $55%N_2-40%NH_3-5%CO_2$ mixed gas atmosphere, and then the steel was induction hardened at $850^{\circ}C$. The microstructure of gas nitrocarburized surface layer was observed by optical microscope and SEM. The phase analysis was carried out by X-ray diffraction method. The mechanical properties of gas nitrocarburized SM35C steel was evaluated by hardness, wear and fatigue test. The thickness of compound and diffusion layer were increased with increasing the gas nitrocarburizing time and the densest compound layer was obtained at 3 hours gas nitrocarburizing time. In case of 15sec induction hardening after gas nitrocarburizing, the surface hardness was decreased from 800Hv to 630Hv owing to the decomposition of compound layer, but wear resistance was increased because of increased hardness of diffusion layer. The fatigue strength of induction hardened steel after gas nitrocarburizing, $58kgf/mm^2$, was higher than $41.5kg/mm^2$ of gas nitrocarburized steel and $45kg/mm^2$ of induction hardened steel, respectively.

Objectives: This study evaluated the impact of different methods of irrigant agitation on smear layer removal in the apical third of curved mesial canals of 3 dimensionally (D) printed mandibular molars. Materials and Methods: Sixty 3D-printed mandibular second molars were used, presenting a 70° curvature and a Vertucci type II configuration in the mesial root. A round cavity was cut 2 mm from the apex using a trephine of 2 mm in diameter, 60 bovine dentin disks were made, and a smear layer was formed. The dentin disks had the adaptation checked in the apical third of the teeth with wax. The dentin disks were evaluated in environmental scanning electron microscope before and after the following irrigant agitation methods: G1(PIK Ultrasonic Tip), G2 (Passive Ultrasonic Irrigation with Irrisonic- PUI), G3 (Easy Clean), G4 (HBW Ultrasonic Tip), G5 (Ultramint X Ultrasonic tip), and G6 (conventional irrigation-CI) (n = 10). All groups were irrigated with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite and 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. Results: All dentin disks were 100% covered by the smear layer before treatment, and all groups significantly reduced the percentage of the smear layer after treatment. After the irrigation protocols, the Ultra-X group showed the lowest coverage percentage, statistically differing from the conventional, PIK, and HBW groups (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference among Ultramint X, PUI-Irrisonic, and Easy Clean (p > 0.05). None of the agitation methods could remove the smear layer altogether. Conclusions: Ultramint X resulted in the most significant number of completely clean specimens.

In this paper, we analyzed the electric characteristics of the OLEDs device of which anode ITO has been treated with the oxygen plasma. We fabricated the basic three-layer structure (ITO / AF / $Alq_3$ / $Cs_2CO_3$ / Al) device, analyzed how the oxygen plasma treatments of the ITO surface affects to the electrical characteristics of OLEDs. We also produced a four-layer structure device (ITO / AF / TPD / $Alq_3$ / $Cs_2CO_3$ / Al) with the oxygen plasma treatment. From the comparative analysis to the devices, we confirmed following results. The three-layer structure OLEDs device with oxygen plasma treatment has better characteristics than the device without the treatments; maximum luminance, luminous efficiency, and external quantum efficiency are improved approximately 151 [%], 126 [%], and 175[%], respectively. Also, the electric characteristics of the four-layer structure device with oxygen plasma treatment are improved comparing to the characteristics of the three-layer structure device with oxygen plasma treatment; maximum luminance, luminous efficiency, and external quantum efficiency are improved approximately 144 [%], 115 [%], and 124[%], respectively.

Recently, in order to improve the performance of the colloidal quantum dot solar cells (CQDSCs), various efforts such as the modification of the cell architecture and surface treatment for quantum dot (QD) passivation have been made. Especially, the incorporation of halides into the QD matrix was reported to improve the performances significantly via passivating QD trap states that lower the life-time of the minority-carrier. In this work, we fabricated a lead sulfide (PbS) QD bilayer treated with different ligands and utilized it as a photoactive layer of the CQDSCs. The bottom and top PbS layer was treated using metal iodide ($MI_x$ and butanedithiol (BuDT), respectively. All the depositions and ligand treatments were carried out in air using layer-by-layer spin-coating process. The fabrication of the active layers as well as the n-type zinc oxide (ZnO) layer was successfully carried out on the bendable indium-tin-oxide (ITO)-coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate, which implies that this technique can be applied to the fabrication of flexible and/or wearable solar cells. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the CQDSCs with the architecture of $PET/ITO/ZnO/PbS-MI_x/PbS-BuDT/MoO_x/Ag$ reached 4.2 %, which is significantly larger than that of the cells with single QD (PbS-BuDT) layer.

In this paper, we propose the industrial controller with multi-function/multi-purpose in order to cope with a small-amount and large-items environments. The controller designed consists of Main Unit including all of information and Display Unit. The software in the Main Unit is composed of tasks and device drivers and each task is being processed in parallel by operating system supporting multitasking. The controller is structured in three levels to promptly address the control algorithm’s modification, MMI’s change, and so on. We can produce a controller without changing the first layer(hardware) and the second layer(firmware). We only modify the third layer(control algorithm) depending on control targets.

IMML(Inorganic metal multi-layer) was used as cathode in the OLED devices to reduce the reflectance or ITO and increase the contrast ratio. Device structure was $ITO/{\alpha}-NPD/Alq_3:DCJTB/Alq_3/IMML/Al$. $Alq_3$ and DCJTB (4 - (dicyanomethylene) - 2 - ( 1 - propyls) 6 - methy 4H - pyrans) as host material lot red emission and red emitting guest material. IMML made three different layer: thin aluminum layer, aluminum layer doped with silicon monoxide, thick aluminum layer. The red OLED device with IMML showed the average reflectance of $4.97\%$, and then normal OLED with or without polarizer showed the average reflectance of $4.55\%$, $46\%$ at visible range from 380 nm to 780 nm. The brightness of OLED with IMML at 13 V was 5557 $cd/m^2$, and that of normal OLED with polarizer was 4872 $cd/m^2$. IMML could be the substitution for polarizer with same reflection, low cost, easy process in flat panel display market.

In SiC semiconductor device processing, it needs high temperature anneal for activation of ion implanted dopants. The macrosteps, 7~8nm in height, are formed on the surface of SiC substrates during activation anneal. We have investigated the effect of thermally-grown SiO$_2$layer on the suppression of macrostep formation during high temperature anneal. The cap oxide layer was found to be efficient for suppression of macrostep formation even though the annealing temperature is as high as the melting point of SiO$_2$. The thin cap oxide layer (10nm) was evaporated during anneal then the macrosteps were formed on SiC substrate. On the other hand the thicker cap oxide layer (50nm) remains until the anneal process ends. In that case, the surface was smoother and the macrosteps were rarely formed. The thermally-grown oxide layer is found to be a good material for the suppression of macrostep formation because of its feasibility of growing and processing. Moreover, we can choose a proper oxide thickness considering the evaporate rate of SiO$_2$at the given temperature.

In the devices structure of ITO/N,N'-diphenyl-N,N' bis (3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) /tris (8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum$(Alq_3)$electron-transport-layer(ETL)(2,9-Dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline(BCP))/Al, we have studied the efficiency improvement of organic light-emitting diodes depending on the thickness variation of BCP using electron transport layer. The thickness of TPD and $Alq_3$ was manufactured 40 nm, 60 nm under a base pressure of $5{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr using at thermal evaporation, respectively. The TPD and $Alq_3$ layer were evaporated to be deposition rate of $2.5{\AA}/s$. And the BCP was evaporated to be a4 a deposition of $1.0{\AA}/s$. As the experimental results, we found that the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency of the device is superior to others when thickness of BCP is 5 nm. Also, operating voltage is lowest. Compared to the ones from the devices without BCP layer, the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency were improved by a factor of four hundred ninty and five hundred, respectively. And operating voltage is reduced to about 2 V.
