As the technology has developed and new materials have been produced, it is important to measure the thermal diffusivity of material and to predict the heat transfer in the solid subject to thermal processes. This measurement can be done in a non-contact way using photothermal displacenent spectroscopy. In this study, photothermal displacement method was used to measure the thermal diffusivity quantitatively. The specimens used in this study were the pure materials. The Ar-ion laser was used as an energy source and the periodical deformation induced by this pump laser was detected by the He-Ne laser. The magnitude and the phase angle of deformation gradient were measured. The thermal diffusivity was obtained by analyzing the phase angle of deformation gradient. As the result, comparing with the literature value, the thermal diffusivities of materials measured were showed about 2% error.

This study has been purposed to provide thermal comfort range in accordance with the residential style of radiant floor heating space, and to compare it with the thermal comfort range at predicted mean vote. The survey for the thermal sensation vote to the subjects and the measurement of environmental factors has been executed, and regression analysis has been performed. It is interpreted that the combination of the physical factor and the psychological factor results lower neutral point of the floor sitting style than that of the chair sitting style. There are some difference between the measured predicted mean vote and the thermal sensation vote via survey, which appears to be caused by distinctive heat transfer characteristic of floor radiant heating space, such as, high radiant temperature and contact thermal sensation of floor surface.

Current crowding problem can worsen the internal quantum efficiency and the negative-voltage ESD of InGaN-based LEDs. In this paper, by using photon emission microscope and thermal emission microscope measurement, we confirmed that the electric field and the current of the InGaN-based LED sample are crowded in specific regions where the distance between p-type metal contact and n-type metal contact is shorter than other regions. To improve this crowding problem of electric field and current, modified metal contact geometry having uniform distance between the two contacts is proposed and verified by a numerical simulation. It is confirmed that the proposed structure shows better current spreading, resulting in higher internal quantum efficiency and reduced reverse leakage current.

Linear motion (LM) ball guides have good accuracy and high efficiency. They are widely applied for precision machinery such as machine tools, semiconductor fabrication machines and robots. However, friction force incurs heat between the balls and grooves. Thermal expansion due to the heat deteriorates stiffness and accuracy of the LM ball guides. For accurate estimation of stiffness and accuracy during the linear motion, friction models of LM ball guides are required. To formulate accurate frictional models of LM ball guides according to load and preload conditions, rolling and viscous frictional analyses have been performed in this paper. Contact loads between balls and grooves are derived from Hertzian contact analysis. Contact angle variation is incorporated for the precision modeling. Viscous friction model is formulated from the shear stress of lubricant and the contact area between balls and grooves. Experiments confirm validity of the developed friction model for various external load and feedrate conditions.

The butt joint was verified to satisfy the thermal stability of the ITER magnet system through the ITER CS model coil test. Since the contact area in the butt joint is limited to the cross section of the cable, it is necessary to analyze and control the joining parameters precisely for improving the DC resistance. It is difficult to simulate the cables, which are composed of a lot of strands, as three-dimensional models using the commercial code. The random numbers were used to simulate many kinds of contact patterns of the strands on the bonding surface for calculating the bonding area and the DC resistance of the butt joint. The calculated DC resistance decreases with an increase of cable filling factor in terminal. The calculated DC resistance of a 0.9 cable filling factor is about 0.48 n-Ohm, which is about one-tenth of that in the CS model coil test when not considering the electrical contact resistance. From this difference, the electrical contact resistance between the strands and copper sheet was calculated.

A thin Te interlayer was applied to a Ni/n-InGaAs contact to reduce the contact resistance between Ni-InGaAs and n-InGaAs. A 5-nm-thick Te layer was first deposited on a Si-doped n-type $In_{0.53}Ga_{0.47}As$ layer, followed by in situ deposition of a 30-nm-thick Ni film. After the formation of the Ni-InGaAs alloy by rapid thermal annealing at $300^{\circ}C$ for 30 s, the extracted specific contact resistivity (${\rho}_c$) reduced by more than one order of magnitude from $2.86{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ to $8.98{\times}10^{-6}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ than that of the reference sample. A thinner Ni-InGaAs alloy layer with a better morphology was obtained by the introduction of the Te layer. The improved interface morphology and the graded Ni-InGaAs layer formed at the interface were believed to be responsible for ${\rho}_c$ reduction.

This paper presents an estimation procedure for axial displacement in spindle equipped with angular contact ball bearings due to rotational speed. High-speed spindle-bearing system experiences axial displacement due to thermal expansion and rotational speed-dependent characteristics of angular contact ball bearings. This paper deals with the axial displacement caused by the rotational speed-dependent effects such as centrifugal force and gyroscopic moments. To this end, a bearing dynamic model is established that includes all the static and dynamic properties of angular contact ball bearing. An analytical formula to calculate the axial displacement based on contact angles between ball and races is derived to discuss the physics regarding the axial displacement in spindle. The proposed dynamic model is compared with a reference and a commercial program. Numerical examples are presented to show the effects of centrifugal force and gyroscopic moment on the axial displacement. The proposed model is also validated with an experimental result.

III-nitride 게 물질들은 blue와 UV 영역의 LED, LD와 같은 광소자뿐만 아니라 HBT, FET와 같은 전자소자로도 널리 응용되고 있다. 이와 같은 물질을 이용한 소자를 제작할 경우 낮은 저항의 ohmic contact은 필수적이다. p-GaN의 ohmic contact은 아직까지 많은 문제점을 내포하고 있다. 그 중의 하나는 높은 doping 농도(>1018cm-3)의 p-GaN 박막을 성장하기가 어렵다는 것이며, 또 하나는 낮은 접촉 비저항을 얻기 위해선 7.5eV 이상의 큰 재가 function을 지닌 금속을 선택해야 한다. 그러나 5.5eV 이상의 재가 function을 갖는 금속은 존재하지 않는다. 위와 같은 문제점들은 p-GaN의 접촉 비저항이 10-2$\Omega$cm2이상의 높은 값을 갖게 만들고 있으며 이에 대한 해결방안으로는 고온의 열처리를 통하여 p-GaN와 금속사이에서 화학적 반응을 일으킴으로써 표면근처에서 캐리어농도를 증가시키고, 캐리어 수송의 형태가 tunneling 형태로 일어날 수 있도록 하는 tunneling current mechaism을 이용하는 것이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 MOCVD로 성장된 p-GaN 박막을 Mg의 activation을 증가시키기 위해 N2 분위기에서 4분간 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 RTA로 annealing을 하였으며, ohmic 접촉을 위한 금속으로 높은 재가 function과 좋은 adhesion 그리고 낮은 자체저항을 가지고 있는 Ni/ZSi/Ni/Au를 ohmic metal로 하여 contact한 후에 $700^{\circ}C$에서 1분간 rapid thermal annealing (RTA) 처리를 했다. contact resistance를 계산하기 위해 circular-TLM method를 이용하여 I-V 특성을 조사하였고, interface interaction을 알아보기 위해 SEM과 EDX, 그리고 XRD로 분석하였다. 또한 추가적으로 Si 계열의 compound metal인 PdSi와 PtSi에 대한 I-V 특성도 조사하여 비교하여 보았다.

In this study, numerical investigation has been performed on the spreading and solidification of a droplet impacting onto a solid substrate in the thermal spray process. The finite difference method with volume-of-fluid approach is used to analyze the free surface flow and the source-based enthalpy method is employed to model the latent heat release during the solidification. In this work, the numerical model is validated through the comparison of the present numerical result with experimental data available for the flat substrate.

This paper presents the thermal characteristics analysis of a high-speed HMC(horizontal machining center) with spindle speed of 30,000rpm and fried rate of 40m/min. The spindle speed is achieved by introducing angular contact ball bearings, oil-jet lubrication method, oil jacket cooling method, and so on. The spindle system is a motor-separated type composed of the main spindle and sub-spindle which are mechanically connected by the flexible coupling. The spindles are supported by two front and rear bearings, and the built-in motor is located between the front to and rear bearings of the sub-spindle. The thermal analysis model of HMC is constructed by the finite element method, and the thermal characteristics in the design stage are estimated based on temperature distribution and heat flow under the various testing conditions related to spindle speed and feed rate.
