Effects of additives on phase development and physico-mechanical properties of mullite-carbon was investigated. Powdered clay, kaolinite and graphite of predetermined compositions were blended with additives using ball mill for 3 hrs at 60 rev/min. Samples were produced by uniaxial compression and sintered between $1400^{\circ}C$ and $1600^{\circ}C$ for one hr. They were characterized for various properties, developed phases and microstructural features. It was observed that the properties and phase developments in the samples were influenced by the additives. 10 wt % SiC served as nucleating point for SiC around $1400^{\circ}C$. 10wt % $TiO_2$ lead to development of 2.5 wt % TiC at $1500^{\circ}C$ which increased to 6.8 wt % at $1600^{\circ}C$. Ifon clay in the sample leads to development of anorthite and microcline in the samples. 10wt % $TiO_2$ is effective as anti-oxidant for graphite up to $1500^{\circ}C$. Base on strength and absorbed energy, sample C (with 10wt % $TiO_2$) sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$ is considered to be optimum.

Metallurgical grade silicon was recovered from slurry waste for ingot sawing process by acid leaching and thermal treatment. SiC abrasive was removed by gravity concentration and centrifugation. Metal impurities were removed by the acid leaching using HF/HCl. The remaining SiC was separated by the thermal treatment at $1600^{\circ}C$ in an inert atmosphere by the difference in melting points. The purity of the obtained silicon was found to be around 99.7%.

Degradation and recovery of damping capacity in a Cu-65%Mn alloy have been studied. When the alloy was isothermally aged at $400^{\circ}C$, the highest damping capacity was observed after aging for 4 hours. In case when the alloy aged at $400^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours was maintained at $100^{\circ}C$, the damping capacity gradually decreased with time. The microstructural observations showed that the formation of subdomains and ${\alpha}$-Mn precipitates are responsible for the degradation of damping capacity. When the degraded specimen was reheated at $250^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes, the damping capacity was recovered considerably owing to the redistribution of impurity atoms, the extinction of subdomains and the release of damping sources from ${\alpha}$-Mn precipitates during the repeated transformation, fcc${\leftrightarrow}$fct.

Since amorphous alloys have been known to have better mechanical and chemical properties than crystalline alloys of the same composition, a great number of studies on the formation of Al-based amorphous alloys have been carried out actively. However, little has been obtained about the effect of Rare-Earth metal and Transition metal addition on amorphous phase formed by melt spinning method. This study included fabrication of amorphous alloy $Al_{85}Ce_5Ni_{10}$ by melt spinning methods and DTA, XRD, TEM analysis to determine crystalization behavoir. Annealing treatments were carried out in Ar atmosphere under isothermal and nonisothermal conditions. The diffraction pattern of non-heated ribbons showed broad form characteristic of glass metallic alloy. The crystallization of amorphous $Al_{85}Ce_5Ni_{10}$ takes place eutedtoidly by homogeneous formation of Al and MS-1, followed by precipitation of the $Al_{11}Ce_3$ and later $MS-1{\rightarrow}Al_3Ni$ transformation.

The effect of aging on the precipitation of the $\sigma$ phase and corrosion resistance in W-substituted, super-duplex stainless steel was investigated. The volume fraction of the $\sigma$ phase and the current density increased as the aging temperature increased up to $750^{\circ}C$, and, then, they decreased. As aging time increased, the volume fraction of the $\sigma$ phase and the current density also increased. The $\sigma$ phase considerably influenced to corrosion resistance. When Mo was substituted for W in super-duplex stainless steel, the volume fraction of the $\sigma$ phase and the current density both decreased markedly.

Interactions of Cu films with Si substrates separated by thin layers of molybdenum and molybdenum nitride were investigated in the viewpoint of diffusion barrier to copper. the diffusion barrier behavior of the layers was studied as functions of deposition and annealing conditions by cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy and Nomarski microscopy. the layers deposited at $N_2$ gas ratios of 0.4 and 0.5 exhibited good diffusion barrier behaviors up to $700^{\circ}C$, mainly due to the phase transformation of molybdenum to $\gamma$-Mo$_2$N phase. The increase in the N gas ratio in deposition elevates the lower limit of barrier failure temperature. Futhermore, amorphous molybdenum nitride films deposited at 20$0^{\circ}C$ and 30$0^{\circ}C$ did not fail, while the crystalline $\gamma$-Mo$_2$N films deposited at 40$0^{\circ}C$ and 50$0^{\circ}C$ showed signs of interlayer interactions between Cu and Si after annealing at 75$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. Therefore, the amorphous nature of the molybdenum nitride layer enhanced its ability to reduce Cu diffusion and its stability as a diffusion barrier at elevated temperatures.

리모트 수소 플라즈마를 이용하여 실리콘 웨이퍼 표면 위에 있는 금속불순물의 제거 및 제거기구에 관하여 조사하였다. 실리콘의 표면과 내부분석을 위하여 TXRF(total reflection x-ray fluorescence)와 SPV(surface photovoltage), AFM(atomic force microscope)을 사용하였다. TXRF 분석결과 리모트 수소 플라즈마가 금속오염물질 제거에 상당한 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. TXRF분석결과 리모트 수소 플라즈마가 금속오염물질 제거에 상당한 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 리모트 수소플라트마 처리 후 금속오염은 금속원소의 종류에 따라 1010atoms/$\textrm{cm}^2$-1011atoms/$\textrm{cm}^2$수준이었다. SPV분석결과를 보면 수소 플라즈마 처리에 의해 minority carrier 수명이 전반적으로 증가하였다. AFM 분석을 통하여 수소 플라즈마 처리가 표면 손상을 일으키지 않으며 표면의 거칠기에 나쁜 영향을 미치지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 본 실험에서 나타난 결과들을 종합해 볼 때 금속오염물의 제거기구는 자연산화막 혹은 수소로 passivate된 실리콘 웨이퍼 표면을 수소 플라즈마에서 발생된 수소원자가 실리콘표면을 약하게 에칭할 때 떨어져 나가는 'lift-off'가 유력한 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this research is to improve the density and the hardness of the SUS alloys for wear resistant materials. The dependence of the density, shrinkage ratio and hardness of various alloys on the sintering temperature and composition were examined. Alloys added with 3% Ti shows the most proper sintering properties of shrinkage ratio and the hardness which is enough to substitute for existing high price materials.

The effect of $0.01{\sim}0.10%$ Sb and Sn on the wear resistance of ductile cast iron was investigated. The hardness was increased with Sb to 0.10%, but the elongation and the impact value were decreased. The tensile strength was increased with up to 0.05% Sb, however decreased with $0.05{\sim}0.10%$ Sb. The hardness and the tensile strength were increased and the elongation was decreased with up to 0.10% Sn. The nodularity of graphite was decreased with above 0.08% Sb however Sn had no effect on that. When the maximum compressive stress was low ($42kg.f/mm^2$), the weigth loss was decreased with increased hardness and when that was high ($54kg.f/mm^2$ and $65kg.f/mm^2$), the weight loss did not depend upon the hardness. The pearlite stabilization with Sb and Sn increased with the wear resistance of ductile cast iron.
