In general, the cause of slab cracking during heat treatment has been analyzed with focus on processing conditions. However, in the present work, the cause of cracking is analyzed based on the microstructural evolution during heat treatment. The microstructural analysis indicates that the structure of the slab consists of three main regions as the top, quarter, and center parts. The tensile properties are investigated in each region of the slab in the temperature range from 25 to 350 ℃. Results demonstrate that the cracking is mainly attributed to the thermal stress and specific morphology of the microstructure. It is proposed that the cracking during the heat treatment is related to the presence of inclusion at the ferrite phase which is located at the boundary of pearlite grains.

The effects of alloying elements on microstructural features and mechanical properties in 0.55%C medium carbon steels were investigated. The samples were austenitized at 105$0^{\circ}C$ for 30min. followed by quenching in a salt bath in the temperature range of 500 ~ $620^{\circ}C$. The addition of Cr resulted in the decrease of the volume fraction of pro-eutectoid ferrite and interlamellar spacing in pearlite and the increase of strength. However, the addition of B caused the increase of the volume fraction of pro-eutectoid ferrite. Reduction of area and Charpy impact values were influenced by the combined effect of microstructural features, such as the volume fraction of pro-eutectoid ferrite, interlamellar spacing and the thickness of lamellar cementite in pearlite.

강유전 요업체내에 존재하는 잔류응력에 대한 모델이 제시되었다. 모델로부터 다음과 같은 두가기 사실을 알 수 있었다. 첫째 잔류응력은 입계와 분역경계에 존재하며, 입계에 존재하는 응력이 분역경계에 존재하는 응력보다 컸다. 둘째는 입자내에 분역이 존재할 때, 잔류응력은 입자크기가 증가함에 따라 감소했다. 위와 같은 사실은 ($PbZr_{0.4}Ti_{0.6}O_3$)요업체에서 분극에 의해 유발된 미세균열과 입자크기에 따른 승온과 냉각시 유전율차이로부터 증명되었다.

High Temperature deformation behavior of newly developed beta-gamma TiAl alloy was investigated in this study. The optimum processing condition was investigated with the aid of Dynamic Materials Model (DMM). Processing maps representing the efficiency of power dissipation for microstructural evolution and instability were constructed utilizing the results of hot compression test at temperatures ranging from $1000^{\circ}C$ to $1200^{\circ}C$ and strain rate ranging from $10^{-4}/s$ to $10^2/s$. The Artificial Neural Network (ANN) simulation was adopted to consider the deformation heating. With the help of processing map and microstructural analysis, the optimum processing condition was presented and the role of $\beta$ phase was also discussed in this study.

Thin films of ZnO and Al doped ZnO were prepared by rf magnetron sputter techniques. When the oxygen fraction in Ar-O$_2$ sputter gas was about 2.0%, the films exhibited the composition of Zn:O=1.05:1. The films prepared at 250 W contain larger grains than the films grown at 100 W. However, high deposition rate seems to deteriorates the crystallinity as well as Al-substitution, resulting in lower concentration of mobile electrons. The Al-doped ZnO films which were deposited at $500^{\circ}C$ show resistance of 1$\times$10$^-2$ Wcm; optical band gap of the films ranges from 3.25 to 3.40 eV. These electrical and optical features are related with microstructural as well as crystalline characteristics of the films.

A new analytical model which can discribe the relationship between the bridging stress and the crack opening displacement was proposed to investigate the microstructural effect on the R-curve behavior in a polycrystalline alumina. The crack opening displacement according to the distance behind the stationary crack tip was measured using in-situ fracture technique in an SEM, and then used for a fitting procedure to obtain the distribution of bridging stress. The current model and an empirical power law relation were introduced into the fitting procedure. The results indicated that the bridging stress function and R-curve computed by the current model were consistent with those computed by the power law relation. The microstructural factor, e.g., the distribution of grain size, was also found to be closely related to the bridging stress. Thus, this model explained well the interaction effect between the distribution of bridging stress and the local-fracture-controlling microstructure, providing important information for the systematic interpretation of microfracture mechanism including R-curve behavior of a monolithic alumina.

Effect of MgO content on microstructural evolution and microwave dielectric properties of Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3 system was investigated. MgO content was varied from 10 mol% deficiency to 10 mol% excess of stoichiometric composition, respectively. It was found that MgO-deficient specimen showed faster grain growth rate than stoichometric and MgO excess BMT system. Besides, sandwich type precipitates of Ba5Ta4O15 which was formed within the BMT grain, might lead to the anisotropic grain growth of BMT grain. On the contrary, in MgO excess specimen, BMT grain growth rate was retarded by precipitations of MgO phase in grain boundary. Besides, the Q values of MgO-deficient showed lower than MgO-excess due to precipitations of Ba5Ta4O15 within BMT grain.

Development of phases, evolution of microstructures, and dielectric response characteristics of amorphous lead iron tungstates during crystabllization were investiageted. A series of mircographs showing the evolution sequence of microstructures is presented. Crystallization was observed to initiate from inside of the amorphous material. A cubic perovskite phase developed fully at $760^{\circ}C$ from amorphous state via intermediate metastable crystalline structures. Dielectric constant of amorphous PFM was totally insensitive to the temperature change around the Curie temperature of crystalline material. Sintered pellet, with relative density of 96% and an almost pore-free dense internal microstructure, could be prepared from amorphous powder.

This paper deals with the reaction-bonded silicon nitride I terms of its microstructural development during nitrida-tion. Silicon powder compacts were reacted with nitrogen at 1185$^{\circ}C$ and 13$65^{\circ}C$ according to the nitriding schedule. Microstructures of nitrided specimens were examined by means of optical and scanning electron microscope to discuss the nitridation or microstructural development at initial and intermediat stage of nitridation. Reaction products were also analysed by X-ray diffraction method at each stage of nitridation. The results indicate that ho-mogeneous and uniform microstructure with find porosity can be obtained only under the reaction condition. such as slow and relatively constant reaction rate with time.

Microstructural and mechanical properties of the TiN films deposited on Si substrates under various substrate bias voltages by a reactive magnetron sputtering have been studied. It was found that the crystallographic texture, microstructural morphology and mechanical property of the TiN films were strongly depended on the substrate bias voltage. TiN films deposited without bias exhibited a mixed (200)-(111) texture with a strong (200) texture, which subsequently changed to a strong (111) texture with increasing bias voltage. It is also observed that the crystallite size decreases with increasing bias voltage, which corresponds to the increasing diffraction peak width of XRD patterns. The average surface roughness was calculated from AFM images of the films; these results indicated that the average surface roughness was increased with an increase in the bias voltage of the coatings.
