YBCO coated conductors have been fabricated with a newly developed oxide-precursor-based MOD process. The precursor solution was synthesized with low cost YBCO powders as starting materials and YBCO coated conductors have been deposited on IBAD substrate ($CeO_2$/IBAD-YSZ/SS). YBCO coated conductor prepared by dip coating shows transport $I_c$ of 15A/cm-w at 77 K. Microstructural and crystallographic analyses indicate that YBCO layer was grown in epitaxy with substrate and exhibited well-developed dense microstructure. Also discussed are processing and analysis of YBCO coated conductor by slot-die web coating method. It was shown that this oxide-based MOD process provides a low cost route to coated conductor with high $J_c$.

A low cost MOD processing using YBCO oxide powder as a starting precursor was employed for fabrication of YBCO thin films. YBCO oxide is advantageous over metal acetates or TFA salts which are popular starting precursors for conventional MOD-TFA process. YBCO thin films were prepared by oxide-precursor-based MOD process and annealing condition was optimized. The YBCO thin film annealed at 78$0^{\circ}C$ shows no transport $I_c$ and poor microstructure. However, the YBCO thin film annealed at higher temperature shows improvement in microstructure and current transport property. In order to improve critical current, YBCO thin film was prepared by double coating method. YBCO thin film prepared with double coating approach shows enhanced superconducting performance ($I_c$>100A/cm-w).

Colloidal III-V semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots (NQDs) have attracted attention as they can be applied in various areas such as LED, solar cell, biological imaging, and so on because they have decreased ionic lattices, lager exciton diameter, and reduced toxicity compared with II-VI compounds. However, the study and application of III-V semiconductor nanocrystals is limited by difficulties in control nucleation because the molecular bonds in III-V semiconductors are highly covalent compared to II-VI compounds. There is a need for a method that provides rapid and scalable production of highly quality nanoparticles. We present a new synthetic scheme for the preparation of InP nanocrystal quantum dots using new phosphorus precursor, P(SiMe2tbu)3. InP nanocrystals from 530nm to 600nm have been synthesized via the reaction of In(Ac)3 and new phosphorus precursor in noncoordinating solvent, ODE. This opens the way for the large-scale production of high quality Cd-free nanocrystal quantum dots.

${\beta}$-SiC thin film was deposited on a Si substrate without buffer layer using a single precursor of Hexamethyldisilane (Si2(CH3)6) by chemical vapor deposition method. HCI gas was introduced into hexamethyldisilane /H2 gas mixture, and the feeding schedule of HCI and precursor gases was modified in order to enhance the selectivity of SiC deposition between a Si substrate and a SiO2 mask. The effect of HCI gas on the surface roughness of the SiC film was investigated and typical electrical properties of the SiC film were also investigated by Hall measurement.

CuO has been synthesized using the layered organic-inorganic hybrids, $Cu_2(OH)_3(CH_3COO){\cdot}H_2O$ as precursor. The simple thermal decomposition of $Cu_2(OH)_3(CH_3COO){\cdot}H_2O$ is used without any external organic templates. This method provides large-scale production at a low cost of the single-crystalline CuO particles. The morphology of CuO aggregated particles is strongly dependent on structure of the precursor.

Ultrafine NiO/YSZ (Yttria-Stabilized Zirconic) composite powders were prepared by using a glycine nitrate process (GNP) for anode material of solid oxide fuel cells. The specific surface areas of synthesized NiO/YSZ composite powders were examined with controlling pH of a precursor solution and the content of glycine. The binding of glycine with metal ions occurring in the precursor solution was analyzed by using FTIR. The characteristics of synthesized composite powders were examined with X-ray diffractometer, a BET method with $N_2$ absorption, scanning and transmission electron microscopies. Strongly acid precursor solution increased the specific surface area of the synthesized composite powders. This is suggested to be caused by the increased binding of metal ions and glycine under a strong acid solution of pH=0.5 that lets glycine consist of mainly the amine group of NH$_3$$^{+}$ After sintering and reducing treatment of NiO/YSZ composite powders synthesized by GNP, the Ni/YSZ pellet showed ideal microstructure very fine Ni Particles of 3-5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were distributed uniformly and fine pores around Ni metal particles were formed, thus, leading to an increase of the triple phase boundary among gas, Ni and YSZ.Z.

We synthesized nano-sized $La_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_3$ ($x=0.1{\sim}0.4$) cathode catalyst for the zinc air secondary batteries by citrate method, And we measured the cathode's electrochemical characteristics according to content of strontium compose the cathode catalyst. We controlled the pH of precursor solution by 10 in the process of manufacturing the precursor, We heat treated the prepared precursor at various calcination temperature ($500{\sim}900^{\circ}C$), and examined the optimum calcinations temperature by XRD analysis and electrochemical evaluation. We examined the ORR (oxygen reduction reaction) and OER (oxygen evolution reaction) performance of the prepared $La_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_3$ catalyst powder. When we consider ORR and OER performance simultaneously, $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}CoO_3$ catalyst has shown the best performance because of its lowest voltage deference between charge and discharge.

Oil-soluble poly(p-phenylene(1-methoxyethylene)), as a precursor of poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV), was synthesized add identified with NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The PPV films were prepared by PPV precursor films with a thermal treatment at $250^{\circ}C$ under vacuum, where the PPV precursor films wets formed on various substrates by using Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) method. The characterization of these films was carried out by FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-VIS absorption spectroscopym, and photoluminescence (PL). Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) has been used to investigate He surface morphology of PPV films.

A Well oriented Bi$_2$re$_2$CaCu$_2$O$\sub$8/(Bi2212) superconductor thick films were formed successfully on a copper substrate by liquid reaction between a Cu-free precursor and Cu tape using method in which Cu-free BSCO powder mixture was printed on copper plate and heat-treated. And we examined the mechanism for the rapid formation of Bi2212 superconducting films from observing the surface microstructure with heat-treatment time. At heat-treatment temperature, the printing layer partially melt by reacting with CuO of the oxidizing copper plate, and the nonsuperconducting phases present in the melt are typically Bi-free phases and Cu-free phases. Following the partial melting, the Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$\sub$8/ superconducting phase is formed at Bi-free phase/liquid interface by nucleation and grows. It was confirmed that the phase colony from the phase diagram of Bi$_2$O$_3$-(SrO+CaO)/2-CuO system is similar to the observed result.

This paper presents a system that measures the acceleration of the shock caused by the explosion of the precursor warhead for the tandem projectile. The proposed system, which is implemented based on the MIL-STD-810G, Method 517.1, consists of a miniaturized shock measurement device, a cable, accelerometers, and a trigger circuit. The shock measurement device has a size of ¢102 × 171 mm and cable has a length of 3 m. The operational confirmation test is conducted by implementing the measurement system. The Analysis of shock data(accelerometer output data) is carried out using Shock Response Spectrum(SRS), pseudo velocity and plot of acceleration time transient. Through measurement analysis, one can predict the damage of electronics in projectile when precursor warhead is exploded.
