Transparent conductive oxide (TCO) are necessary as front electrode or anti-reflecting coating for increasing efficiency of LED and Photodiode. In this paper, aluminum-doped Zinc oxide films(AZO) were prepared by DC magnetron sputtering on glass(corning 1737) and Si substrate at temperature of $100^{\circ}C$ and then annealed at temperature of $400^{\circ}C$ for 1hr in Ar and vaccum. The AZO films were etched in diluted HCL (0.5 %) to examine the surface morphology properties. After annealing, Structural and electrical property were investigated. The c-axis orientation along (002) plane was enhanced and the electrical resistivity of the AZO film decreased from $1.1\times10^{-1}$ to $1.6\times10^{-2}{\Omega}cm$. We observed textured structure of AZO thin film etched for 2s.

We fabricated Ni and Ni alloy substrates for YBCO coated conductors. The Ni and Ni alloy substrate was fabricated by powder metallurgy technique and cold rolling. The texture of substrates had a strong 4-fold symmetry and ［111］∥ND texture after annealing temperature of 100$0^{\circ}C$. The measured full-width half-maximum (FWHM) of in-plane and out-of-plane was in the range of 6$^{\circ}$-10$^{\circ}$. The powder metallurgy technique is fabrication of the substrates for considered to be suitable for the application of YBCO coated conductors.

The material properties and the TFT characteristics fabricated on SiOS12T substrate by LPCVD using SiHS14T gas were investigated. The deposition rate showed Arrhenius behavior with an activation energy of 31Kcal/mol. And the transition temperature form amorphous to crystalline deposition was observed at 570$^{\circ}C$-580$^{\circ}C$. The strong(220) texture was observed as the deposition temperature increases. XRD analysis showed that the film texture of the as-deposited polycrystalline silicon does not change after annealing at 850$^{\circ}C$. The fabricated TFT's based on the as-deposited amorphous film showed superior electrical characteristics to those of the as-deposited polycrystalline films. It is considered that the different electrical characteristics result from the difference of flat band voltage(VS1FBT) due to the interface trap density between the gate oxide and the active channel.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of various deformation ratio on texture of Ag tapes that can be used as a RE-$Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ coated conductor tapes without any buffer layer. We fabricated as-rolled Ag substrate with various deformation ratio per step. Thickness and total deformation ratio of Ag tapes were $100{\mu}m$ and >98%, respectively. And as-rolled Ag substrate was annealed at $750^{\circ}C$ for 30min. The as-rolled and recrystallization textures were measured using x-ray pole figures and orientation distribution function (ODF) analysis. With the increase of rolling ratio from 5 to 20%, deformation texture are changed from {1l0}<311> to {1l0}<112>, {032}<100>, {051}<211>. After recrystallization by annealing, main texture was observed to {013}<100> under present condition.

Interstitial free (IF) steel sheets were cold rolled by the cross-roll rolling mill in which the roll axes are tilted by ${\pm}7.5^{\circ}$ away from the transverse direction of the rolled sample. After cross-roll rolling of IF steel sheets, the cold rolling and the recrystallization textures were distinguished from those observed after rolling in a normal rolling mill. The three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) simulation revealed that the operation of a large shear strain ${\varepsilon}_{23}$ during cross-roll rolling leads to the formation of a distinct cold rolling texture. During recrystallization annealing, a pronounced change in texture components was not observed, which is attributed to the lack of either selective growth or oriented nucleation during the recrystallization process. Cold cross-roll rolling led to the formation of finer recrystallized grains in IF steel sheets.

Heat-treatable Al-Mg-Si-Cu alloy sheets, which are expected to have a growing demand, were fabricated by Cross rolling to improve their formability. The mechanical properties and texture of the sheets after the final annealing process were investigated by a tensile test, EBSD and XRD analysis. The grain size of the cross-rolled sheets was remarkably decreased compared to conventional rolled sheets, and the R-value of the cross-rolled sheets was notably increased by about one and a half times that of the conventional rolled sheet. Cube{001}<100> and cubic system orientations were strongly developed in conventional rolled sheets. However, randomized textures were formed in the cross-rolled sheets without specific texture. It is thought that much shear deformation was induced during the cross rolling. The results show that the cross rolling method is effective for improving the R-value of aluminum alloys sheets and their grain refinement. As a result, it is considered that cross rolling is effective for improving formability.

An OptiNeural system is developed for optical pattern classification. It is a novel hybrid system which consists of an optical processor and a multilayer neural network. It takes advantages of two dimensional processing capability of an optical processor and nonlinear mapping capability of a neural network. The optical processor with a binary phase only filter is used as a preprocessor for feature extraction and the neural network is used as a decision system through mapping. OptiNeural system is trained for optical pattern classification by use of a simulated annealing algorithm. Its classification performance for grey tone texture patterns is excellent, while a conventional optical system shows poor classification performance.

We fabricated the Au/Ni template for YBCO coated conductors and evaluated texture formation and the microstructural evolution. The cube textured Ni substrate was fabricated by rolling and recrystallization annealing, and subsequently Au layer formed on the substrate by electroless-plating method. The texture was evaluated by pole-figure with x-ray goniometer with orientation distribution function (ODF) analysis. The surface roughness and grain boundary morphology of template were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) We observed that Au layer deposited epitaxially on Ni substrate and formed a strong cube texture when plating time was optimized. The full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) was $8.4^{\circ}$ for out-of-plane and $9.98^{\circ}$ for in-plane texture for plating time of 30 min. Microstructural observation showed that the Au layer was homogeneous and dense without formation of crack/microcrack. In addition, we observed that root-mean-square (RMS) and depth of grain boundary were 14.6 nm and 160 $\AA$ for the Au layer, respectively, while those were 27.0 nm and 800 $\AA$ for the Ni substrate, indicating that the electoless-plated Au layer had relatively smooth surface and effectively mollified grain groove.

As deposited and annealed MTJs with the structure of $Ta(5 nm)/Cu(10 nm)/Ta(5 nm)/Ni_{80}Fe_{20}(2 nm)/Cu(5 nm)/ Ir_{25}Mn_{75}(10 nm)/Co_{70}Fe_{30}(2.5 nm)/Al-O/Co_{70}Fe_{30}(2.5nm)/Ni_{80}Fe_{20}(t)/Ta(5nm)/Ni_{80}Fe_{20}(t)/Ta(5 nm)$, where t=10, 30, 60 and 100 nm were characterized by XRD and magnetic hysteresis loops measurements. The XRD measurements were done in grazing incidence $(GID scan-2{\theta})$ and ${\theta}-2{\theta}$ geometry, by rocking curve $(scan-{\omega})$ and pole figures in order to establish correlation between texture and crystallites size and magnetic parameters of exchange biased and interlayer coupling. The variations of shifting and coercivity field of free and pinned layers after annealing in $300^{\circ}C$ correlate with the improvement of ［111］ texture and grains size of $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$ and $Ir_{25}Mn_{75}$ respectively. The exchange biased and the coercivity fields of the pinned layer linearly increased with increasing grain size of $Ir_{25}Mn_{75}$, The reciprocal proportionality between interlayer coupling and coercivity fields of the free layer and grain size of $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$ was found. The enhancement of interlayer coupling between pinned and free layers, after annealing treatment, indicates on the correlated in-phase roughness of dipolar interacting interfaces due to increase of crystallites size of $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$.

The plastic strain ratio is one of the factors that affect the deep drawability of Al alloy sheet. The deep drawability of Al alloy sheet is limited because of its low plastic strain ratio. Therefore an increase in the plastic strain ratio to improve the deep drawability of Al alloy sheet is needed. The current study investigated the increase of the plastic strain ratio and the change in texture of AA5083 Al alloy sheet after a 2 step asymmetric rolling with heat treatments. The average plastic strain ratio of initial AA5083 Al alloy sheets was 0.83. After the first asymmetric rolling step of 88% deformation and subsequent heat treatment at $320^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes the value was still 0.83. After the second asymmetric rolling of 14% reduction and subsequent heat treatment at $330^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes the plastic strain ratio rose to 1.01. The average plastic strain ratio after the 2 step asymmetric rolling and heat treatment is 1.2 times higher than that of initial AA5083 Al alloy sheet. This result is related to the development of ND/<111> texture component after the second asymmetric rolling and heat treatment.
