The relationship between the isothermal age-hardening behavior and the phase transformation in the commercial dental Au-Ag-Cu-Pd alloy was investigated Age-hardening was mostly attributed to the lattice distortions of the supersaturated w phase resulting from the transformation to the metastable phasel which were more distinct at lower aging temperature. The lattice distortions resulting from the transformation of the metastable phases to the equilibrium phases also made a contribution to the age-hardening.

The crystallization of metastable "orthorhombic" phase from the glass in the system of Na $AlSi_3O_8-CaAl_2Si_2O_8$ is studied. These crystals are crystallized in the range of composition from $Ab_80An_20$ to An100. The symmetry of these crystals show orthorhombic as a possible space group P22121. Two probable twin models are proposed. proposed.

Monolayer $MoS_2$의 metastable phase인 T' phase가 stable한 H phase보다 안정해지는 조건을 모색하기 위해 substitutional doping을 했을 때와 strain을 걸어주었을 때의 에너지 차이를 DFT 방법으로 계산하였다. Doping을 했을 때와 strain이 있을 때 T' phase와 H phase의 에너지 차이가 감소함을 확인하였으나 H phase보다 T' phase가 안정해지는 조건을 찾지는 못하였다. 하지만 이 방법을 기존의 alkali adsorption 방법과 병행하여 기존 방법의 단점을 보완할 수 있을 것을 기대해 볼 수 있다. 또한 전자구조 분석 중 얻은 dopant의 주기와 족에 따른 경향성은 다른 TMD 물질의 phase engineering을 design할 때 universal한 design rule로서 응용할 수 있음을 기대해 볼 수 있다.

The graphite tube nozzle has been developed for the generation of metastable He jet by which the nitrogen molecules initially excited in a jet with Engelking type nozzle have been further excited in a corona excited supersonic expansion. The excitation process of nitrogen molecules in the jet collision has been discussed in detail by observing the emission intensity from the vibronic emission spectra of nitrogen molecules and nitrogen molecular ions upon helium jet collision.

The crystallizied Inactions of the two metastable phases in the glasses of plagioclase compositions were estimated by x-ray diffraction method. The orthorhombic metastable phase is easily drystaliized in the composition range of 70 to 80 mol% of albite, whereas the hexagonal metastable phase is mostly crystallized in the anonhite-rich side. For the purpose of refining the orthorhombic metastable structure some single crystal fragments of the composition Na,17ca‥‥All Isi2 nn were separated Som the crystallized glasses.

The position of Na and Ca atoms statistically distributed is splitted in two points with the occupancy of 0.5. The Si and Al atoms are statistically distributed in the six-membered ring of the Immm-type framework.

Rare earth magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnets and are integral to the high tech industry, particularly in clean energies, such as electric vehicle motors and wind turbine generators. However, the cost of rare earth materials and the imbalance in supply and demand still remain big problems to solve for permanent magnet related industries. Thus, a magnet with abundant elements and moderate magnetic performance is required to replace rare-earth magnets. Recently, $a^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Fe_{16}N_2$ has attracted considerable attention as a promising candidate for next-generation non-rare-earth permanent magnets due to its gigantic magnetization (3.23 T). Also, metastable $a^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Fe_{16}N_2$ exhibits high tetragonality (c/a = 1.1) by interstitial introduction of N atoms, leading to a high magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant ($K_1=1.0MJ/m^3$). In addition, Fe has a large amount of reserves on the Earth compared to other magnetic materials, leading to low cost of raw materials and manufacturing for industrial production. In this paper, we review the synthetic methods of metastable $a^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Fe_{16}N_2$ with film, powder and bulk form and discuss the approaches to enhance magnetocrystalline anisotropy of $a^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Fe_{16}N_2$. Future research prospects are also offered with patent trends observed thus far.

To obtain detailed information on the metastable and the equilibrium phases in rapidly solidified Al-(Fe,Ce) alloys, analysis of X-ray diffraction pattern has been carried out. It has been found that the metastable phase formed in Al-Fe alloys including up to 6wt%Fe is $Al_6Fe$ and the equilibrium phase is $Al_3Fe$. Any X-ray diffraction peak corresponding to the equilibrium phase $Al_{13}Fe_4$ has not been observed during aging. In Al-4wt%Fe alloy, which is ribbon shape with thickness less than $70\;{\mu}m$, aged at $400^{\circ}C$ for 1h after rapid solidification, unidentified phase has been found. In Al-4wt%Ce alloy, only X-ray diffraction peak corresponding to the equilibrium phase, $Al_4Ce$ has been observed. It has been found that the metastable phase Formed in Al-Fe-Ce alloys including up to 6wt% Fe and 4wt% Ce is $Al_6Fe$ and the equilibrium phases are $Al_3Fe$ and $Al_{10}CeFe_2$.

Four different mechanical alloying(MA) processes were employed to fabricate very fine intermetallic compound $Al_3Zr$ particles dispersed Al composite materials(MMC) with Al-4at.%Zr composition. Phase transformations including phase stability during MA and heat treatment processes were investigated. Part of Zr atoms were dissolved into Al matrix and part of them reacted with hydrogen produced by decomposition of PCA(methanol) to form hydride $ZrH_2$ during first MA process. These $ZrH_2$ hydrides disappeared when alloy powders were heat treated at $500^{\circC}$. Stable $Al_3Zr$ dispersoids with $DO_23$ structure were formed by heat treating the mechanically alloyed powders at $400^{\circC}$. On the other hand, metastable $Al_3Zr$dispersoids with $L1_2$ structure were formed during first MA of powers with Al-25at.%Zr composition. These metastable $Al_3Zr$ dispersoids transformed to stable $Al_3Zr$ with $DO_23$ structure when heat treated above $450^{\circC}$.

In this paper, we introduced a LIF measurement method and summarized the theoretical side. When an altered wavelength of laser and electric power, lamp applied electric power, we measured the relative density of the metastable state in mercury after observing a laser induced fluorescence signal of 404.8nm and 546.2nm, and confirmed the horizontal distribution of plasma density in the discharge lamp. Due to this generation, the extinction of atoms in a metastable state occurred through collision, ionization, and excitation between plasma particles. The density and distribution of the metastable state depended on the energy and density of plasma particles, intensely. This highlights the importance of measuring density distribution in plasma electric discharge mechanism study. The results confirmed the resonance phenomenon regarding the energy level of atoms along a wavelength. change, and also confirmed that the largest fluorescent signal in 436nm, and that the density of atoms in 546.2nm ($6^3S_1{\to}6^3P_2$) were larger than 404.8nm ($6^3S_1{\to}6^3P_2$). According to the increase of lamp applied electric power, plasma density increased, too. When increased with laser electric power, the LIF signal reached a saturation state in more than 2.6mJ. When partial plasma density distribution along a horizontal axis was measured using the laser induced fluorescence method, the density decreased by recombination away from the center.

Chemisorption of oxygen molecules on the Si(111)-(7x7) surface has been studied extensively as a model for the initial-stage oxidation of the surface. The basic step to the surface oxidation is the dissociation of the adsorbed O2 molecules, but the dissociation procedure and the atomic structure of the reaction products still remains as a subject of debates. We present here density-functional theory calculations on the initial-stage oxidation states of the Si adatom site for all possible dissociation configurations that can be generated by multiple O2 reactions. We determine the equilibrium structures and analyze their electronic and vibrational properties in comparison with measured UPS, XPS, and EELS spectra. The O(ad) atom bonded on top of the Si adatom is always less stable than the O(ins) atom inserted into one of the adatom backbonds. Our electronic and vibrational analysis demonstrates further that the O(ad) and O(ins) atoms account well for the metastable and stable features in previous experiments, respectively. Moreover, the calculated decay pathways of the metastable structures and the comparison of the calculated O ls core-level shifts with XPS data provides a convincing argument in unambiguously identifying the experimental metastable and stable structures, thereby making it possible to build a correct atomic-scale picture of the initial-stage oxidation process on this surface.
