Among the micro machining techniques, micro EDM is generally used for machining micro holes, pockets, and micro structures on difficult-cut-materials. Micro EDM parameters such as applied voltage, capacitance, peak current, pulse width, duration time are very important to fabricate the tool electrode and produce the micro structures. Developed micro EDM machine is composed of a 3-axis driving system and RC circuit equipped with pulse generator. In this paper, using micro EDM machine, the characteristics of micro EDM process are investigated and it is applied to micro holes, slots, and pockets machining. Through experiments, relations between machined surface and voltages and between MRR and feedrate are investigated. Also the trends of tool wear are investigated in case of hole and slot machining.

The purpose of this study is to enhance an adhesion between substrate and Diamond-like Carbon (DLC) film. DLC has many outstanding properties such as low friction, high wear resistance and corrosion resistance. However, it is difficult to achieve enough adhesion because of weak bonding between DLC film and the substrate. For improvement adhesion, a layer between DLC film and the substrate was prepared by dual post plasma. DLC film was deposited on nitrided layer by linear ion source. The composed compound layer between substrate and DLC film was investigated by Glow Discharge Spectrometer (GDS) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The synthesized bonding structure of DLC film was analyzed using a micro raman spectrometer. Mechanical properties were measured by nano-indentation. In order to clarify the mechanism for improvement in adhesive strength, it was observed by scratch test.

Surface roughness of mechanical components is an important factor which affects the tribological phenomena. Various surface patterns have been applied to surfaces to improve the tribological characteristics of mechanical components. In this work, the friction reduction effect of micropatterns on silicon was investigated. For this purpose, micro-dimple patterns were fabricated on silicon wafer by DRIE process. In the friction experiments silicone oil was used as lubricant. Also, the lubricant was cleaned to simulate a lubricant depleted condition. In depleted lubricated condition, friction coefficient of micro-pattern specimens was lower than specimens without micro-patterns. It was found that friction reduction effect of micro-pattern could be successfully maintained even after cleaning the lubricant on the surface.

DLC is considered as the candidate material for application of moving parts in automotive components relatively in high pressure and temperature operating conditions for its high hardness with self lubrication and chemical inertness. The properties of interlayer between the substrate and the DLC film were studied. Arc ion plating method have been employed to deposit onto substrate and sputtering method was used for synthesizing DLC onto interlayer. Among these six types of interlayer, deposited DLC film onto TiCN showed excellent value for characteristics. From the results of analysis for physical properties of DLC films, it seems that the adhesion forces were more important factors than intrinsic mechanical properties such as hardness, roughness and wear resistance of DLC films. AFM(Atomic Force Microscope) was used for understanding roughness of DLC films. Hardnesses of the coating layers were identified by nano-indentation method and adhesions were checked by scratch method.

표면처리는 전기적, 물리적, 화학적 처리방법 등을 통해 보호표면을 생성시킴으로서 재료의 외관미화, 내마모성, 전기절연, 전기전도성 부여 등의 폭넓은 목적을 달성시키고자 하는 일련의 조작을 말한다. 최근 스마트 휴대폰으로 대표되는 이동통신기기 산업의 빠른 성장으로 인하여 이들 기기를 보호하기 위한 표면 처리기술도 함께 발전하고 있다. 그중 대표적인 것이 나노기술을 융합한 보호막 도장기술이다. 나노입자를 분산하거나 나노상(phase)을 융합하여 제품의 표면에 보호막을 도장하는 기술이며, 그 주된 목적은 내 스크래치, 내 부식 등의 물리 화학적 보호기능을 수행하도록 층(layer)을 형성하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 제조된 실리카 나노입자와 유기물을 사용하여 휴대폰 케이스에 도장막을 형성하였고, Scratch, Wear, hardness Test등의 분석을 통하여 유무기 하이브리드 도장막의 특성을 평가하였다.

Cr-C-Ni composites were synthesized in situ from elemental powders of Cr, Ni and C by high energy milling followed by reactive sintering. The milled powders with the grain size in nano-scale were pressed to compacts and sintered. During the following thermal treatment at first the chromium carbide was formed and then the $Cr_3C_2-Ni$ cermets were sintered in one cycle. The interface between the binder phase and the carbide grains of the in situ composite has a good bonding strength as it is not contaminated with oxidation films or other detrimental surface reactions.

New methods of nano-sized material and composite coating preparations have been considered on the base of mathematical model of abrasion-reaction interaction of milling and grinding bodies in planetary centrifugal mill. The essence of the method is the abrasive and oxidative wear of the milling bodies and amorphous (better inert) additives. Interactions between them has been supplied the necessary impulse of pressure and temperature on the impact-frictional contacts and promoted chemical processes. The offered method can find application for such processing as sintering and geological minerals opening.

To overcome some of the limitations in the conventional photolithography technique, MC-SPL which has advantages such as flexibility and high speed was developed in the past. To make a fine pattern using MC-SPL, there are many variables to control, for example, applied load, scribing speed, chemical etching condition, and etc. In this work, the effect of contact load on the width of the pattern was investigated. The load not only influences the width of the pattern but it also affects the wear of the probe tip. It was found that it is beneficial to load the tip in two stages. Futhermore, the experimental results showed that the pattern width was more sensitive to the initial contact force.

Frictional behavior of a single carbon nanotube(CNT) was investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. A single CNT aligned horizontally on silver or graphene substrate was modeled to evaluate its frictional behavior such as frictional force and rolling/sliding motion with respect to potential parameter and lattice structure of the substrate. As a result, it was found that friction and rolling was affected by adhesion between two surfaces and period of the rolling depended on lattice distance of the substrate.

This paper discusses the importance of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in enhancing performance and resistance of tennis rackets with the application of nanotechnology. This paper discusses how nanomaterials work toward making the equipment lighter, stronger, and more durable by combining CNTs with composite materials in Tennis Rackets. Distinctive properties of the CNTs, such as the very high strength-to-weight ratio and exceptional mechanical resilience, have been exploited in racket performance optimization for better power transmission, increased control on shots, and improved durability. Resistance to wear and tear is discussed in terms of the life of a CNT-enhanced tennis racket and its continued performance with time. The findings imply that the CNTs increase the security and overall performance of tennis rackets, hence promising further innovation in sports technology equipment and the various performances expected from users.
