Various surface treatments and thin film coating processes on the surface of injection die steel have been developed to extend the life. Most of previous studies were mainly focused on investigating the wear and static bonding behavior of thin films. In this study complex surface treatments of DLC coating combined with ion nitriding were applied to increase fatigue life and wear resistance. Ion nitriding, DLC coating, and DLC coating following nitriding on the surface of Fe-3.0Ni-0.7Cr-1.4Mn-X steel were investigated to uncover the beneficial effect which is applicable to injection die. The effect of various surface treatments and coating conditions on high cycle fatigue resistance was studied. Surface morphology change during fatigue tests were observed with AFM. Fatigue life of the die steel increased by 10 to 1,000 times at the various level of stress amplitudes in the condition of DLC coating following the ion nitriding for 3 hrs comparing with the only DLC coated condition.

Alumina-coated SiC whiskers wee prepared by the calcination (1150$^{\circ}C$, 1h, Ar) of the alumina hydrate layer which was precipitated homogeneously on whisker surface from a solution of Al2(SO4)3 and urea as a precipitant. In addition carbon coated SiC whiskers were prepared by the pyrolysis (1000$^{\circ}C$, 4h Ar) of phenolic resin coated whisker. The effects of coating conditions on the thickness and morphology of the coated layers were examined by SEM and TEM. It was found that Al2O3-coating layers become thinner and more uniform with decreasing the Al2(SO4)3 concentration. Thin (0.075-0.1$\mu\textrm{m}$) and uniformly alumina-coating layers were obtained at the Al2(SO4)3 concentration 0.010mol/l. On the other han carbon-coating layers were uniform but very thin (5-16 nm) in thickness. For thicker carbon-coating layers ethanol as a disperse medium was found to be more efficient compared tousing acetone.

The In2S3 thin films of tetragonal structure and In2O3 films of cubic structure were synthesized by a spin coating method from the organometallic compound precursor triethylammonium indium thioacetate ($[(Et)_3NH]^+[In(SCOCH_3)_4]^-$; TEA-InTAA). In order to determine the electron mobility of the spin-coated TEA-InTAA films, thin film transistors (TFTs) with an inverted structure using a gate dielectric of thermal oxide ($SiO_2$) was fabricated. These devices exhibited n-channel TFT characteristics with a field-effect electron mobility of $10.1cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ at a curing temperature of $500^{\circ}C$, indicating that the semiconducting thin film material is applicable for use in low-cost, solution-processed printable electronics.

The suspension of $Al_2O_3$ which has long-term stability was made by mechanical milling. Thin films were evaluated and made to use as coating materials. A particle size of the suspension manufactured was 98 nm when 2 mt% nitric acid was added. It indicated that viscosity of the suspension is 12 cps and that it had the long-term stability. Thickness which was from 200 nm to 600 nm of the thin films was able to be made by adjusting draw rate and organic additive. Cracks of thin films at room temperature were prevented by adding Ethyl cellulose from 0.5 wt% to 2 wt%. The thin film heated at $500^{\circ}C$ indicated a hydrophilic property against water and an excellent permeability against a visible ray.

In this study, we prepared Pb-Ti stock solution by sol-gel processing and deposited PbTiO3 thin film on a Pt coated SiO2/Si wafer by spin coating using the stock solution. We used lead acetate trihydrate and titanium isopropoxide. The stock solution was partially hydrolized and finally a 0.25M coating solution was prepared. We achieved spin coating at 4000rpm for 30 seconds and heated the thin film at 375$^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes and at $600^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes successively, first and second heating state. And the thin film was finally sintered at 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour in the air. The upper electrode of the thin film was made by gold sputtering and was cricle shape with radius 0.4mm. Measured dielectric constant, dissipation factor and phase transition temperature(Cuire Temp.) were about 275, 0.02 and 521$^{\circ}C$ respectively. To observe ferroelectric characteristics we calculated Pr(remnant polarization) and Ec(coercive field) byhysteresis curve. Ec was 72kV/cm and Pr was 11.46$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

Transparent conductive indium zinc oxide thin films were prepared by spin-coating a sol-gel solution. Zinc acetate dihydrate [$Zn(CH_3COO)_2{\cdot}2H_2O$] and indium acetate [In$(CH_3COO)_3$] were used as starting precursors, and 2-methoxyethanol with 1-propanol as solvents. Upon annealing in a temperature range from 500 to $1000^{\circ}C$, the thin film crystallizes into polycrystalline $In_2O_3$(ZnO). The lowest electrical resistivity was obtained at an annealing temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ as $2{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$. Average optical transmittances were higher than 80% at all annealing temperatures. These experimental results confirm that the sol-gel spin-coating can be a good simplified practical method for forming transparent electrodes.

A thin spray coating of inorganic black lithium polysilicate (IBLP) on black anodized AZ31B magnesium alloy was fabricated for better corrosion resistance and thermo-optical properties for thermal control of spacecraft components. The morphology of the specimens with and without IBLP-based spray coating was characterized by SEM-EDS techniques. Impedance and potentiodynamic measurements on the specimens revealed better corrosion resistance for the specimen with a thin coating of lithium polysilicate. This was primarily due to the presence of lithium polysilicate inside the micro-cracks of the black anodized specimen, restricting the diffusion paths for corrosive media. Environmental tests, namely, humidity, thermal cycling, thermo vacuum performance, were used to evaluate the space-worthiness of the coating. The thermo-optical properties of the coating were measured before and after each environmental test to ascertain its stability. The specimen with an IBLP-based spray coating showed enhanced thermo-optical properties, greater than ~0.90. Hence, the proposed coating demonstrated better handling, better corrosion resistance, and space-worthiness during the pre-launch phase owing to its improved thermo-optical properties.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) used a transparent electrode of a photoelectric device has a low sheet resistance and a high transmittance. However, ITO is disadvantageous in that the process cost is expensive, and the process time is long. Silver nanowires (AgNWs) transparent electrodes are based on a low cost solution process. In addition, it has attracted attention as a next-generation transparent electrode material that replaces ITO because it has similar electrical and optical characteristic to ITO, it is noted as a. AgNW thin films are mainly produced by spin-coating. However, the spin-coating process has a disadvantage of high material loss. In this study, the material loss was reduced by using about 2~10 ㎕ of AgNW solution on a (25 × 25) ㎟ substrate using the shear-coating method. It was also possible to align AgNWs in the drag direction by dragging the meniscus of the solution. The electro-optical properties of the AgNW thin film were adjusted by changing the experimental parameters that the amount of AgNWs suspension, the gap between the substrate and the blade, and the coating speed. As a result, AgNW thin films with a transmittance of 90.7 % at a wavelength of 550 nm and a sheet resistance of 15 Ω/□ was deposited and exhibited similar properties to similar AgNW transparent electrodes studied by other researchers.

Structural morphology, annealing behavior and dielectric properties of polyaniline-emeraldine base (Pani-EB) and poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) thin films prepared by spin coating technique have been studied. MIM and MISM structures were used to investigate annealing and dielectric behavior. The XRD and AFM spectrum of as grown and annealed thin films indicates the amorphous nature. The observed amorphous phase, low loss, dielectric behavior and thermal stability even at high temperatures implies the feasibility of utilizing PMMA and Pani-EB thin films as gate dielectric insulator layer in organic thin film transistors which can find application in flat panel display.
