The dark current and photocurrent(PC) spectrum of Mg-doped GaN thin film were investigated with various bias voltages and temperatures. At high temperature and small bias, the dark current is dominated by holes thermally activated from an acceptor level Al located at about 0.16 eV above the valence band maximum $(E_v)$, The PC peak originates from the electron transition from deep level A2 located at about 0.34 eV above the $E_v$ to the conduction band minimum $(E_ C)$. However, at a large bias voltage, holes thermally activated from A2 to Al experience the field-in-duces tunneling to form one-dimensional defect band at Al, which determines the dark current. The PC peak associated with the transition from Al to $E_ C$ is also observed at large bias voltages owing to the extended recombination lifetime of holes by the tunneling. In the near infrared region, a strong PC peak at 1.20 eV appears due to the hole transition from deep donor/acceptor level to the valence band.

Presented in this study are the variations of microstructures and mechanical properties with tempering and Post-Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) conditions for SA508 Gr.4N steel used as Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) material. The blocks of model alloy were austenitized at the conventional temperature of $880^{\circ}C$ then tempered and post-weld heat treated at four different conditions. The hardness and yield strength decrease with increased tempering and PWHT temperatures, but impact toughness is significantly improved, especially in the specimens tempered at $630^{\circ}C$. The sample tempered at $630^{\circ}C$ with PWHT at $610^{\circ}C$ shows optimum mechanical properties in hardness, strength, and toughness, excluding only the transition property in the low temperature region. The microstructural observation and quantitative analysis of carbide size distribution show that the variations of mechanical properties are caused by the under-tempering and carbide coarsening which occurred during the heat treatment process. The introduction of PWHT results in the deterioration of the ductile-brittle transition property by an increase of coarse carbides controlling cleavage initiation, especially in the tempered state at $630^{\circ}C$.

This study investigates the natural convection of air(Pr=0.7) between two walls having a small- wave- number sinusoidal temperature distributions with a phase difference. The wave number and the phase difference of wall temperatures are k=0.5 and ㄱ/2, respectively. In the conduction-dominated regime at small Rayleigh number, two slightly inclined cells are formed over one wave length. At higher Rayleigh number, however, multicellular convection occurs in thermally unstable region. A spatial symmetry is intermittently broken in the transient period at the Rayleigh number near the critical value. The steady-state flows always satisfy the spatial symmetry. A steep increase of Nusselt number occurs near the Rayleigh number at which transition of flow pattern occurs.

The influences of A(Cu1/3Nb2/3)O3(A=Pb, Ba and Sr) on the ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition of BaTiO3 ceramics has been investigated. The tetragonality of crystal structure decreased with increasing A(Cu1/3Nb2/3)O3 content at room temperature. A linear correlation between Curie point and the tetragonality of lattice was not observed. In all three systems the variation of Curie point with the mole fraction showed similar tendency that the Curie point decreased at lower mole fraction but gradually increased in the region of higher mole fractions, Diffuse phase transitions were observed at higher mole fractions. The variation of Curie points could be explained by internal stress and Jahn-Teller distortion of BO6 due to Cu2+, and it was thought that the diffuse character of phase transition was caused by compositional fluctuation.

Flow characteristics in transitional boundary layers on a flat plate were experimentally investigated under three different freestream conditions i. e. uniform flow with 0.1 % and 3.7% freestream turbulent intensity and cylinder-wake with 3.7% maximum turbulent intensity. Instantaneous streamwise velocities in laminar, transitional and turbulent boundary layers were measured by I-type hot-wire probe. For estimation of wall shear stresses on the flat plate, measured mean velocities near the wall were applied to the principle of Computational Preston Tube Method (CPM). Distributions of skin friction coefficients were reasonably predicted in all developed boundary layers. Intermittency profiles, which were estimated using Conditional Sampling Technique in transitional boundary layers, were also consistent with previously published data. It was predicted that the incoming turbulent intensity had more influence on transition onset point and transition process than freestream turbulent intensity existed just over the transition region. It was also confirmed that non-turbulent and turbulent profiles in transitional boundary layers could not be simply treated as Blasius and fully turbulent profiles.

Turbo-type molecular drag pumps ( MDPs ) are used in the liquid crystal display ( LCD ), semiconductor and other thin film industries. Siegbahn ( disk-type ) molecular drag pumps are used as high-pressure stages in the hybrid-type turbomolecular pumps, where they can operate in the viscous, the transition and the free molecular flow regime. In this study is performed to investigate the pumping characteristics of three-stage disk-type molecular drag pump ( DTDP ) in the molecular transition flow region. The experiments are measured using five vacuum pressure gauges in the positions for rotors of DTDP. The test is performed with nitrogen gas ( $N_2$ ).

We have employed a technique of corona excited supersonic expansion to generate electronically excited but jet-cooled o-tolunitrile. The vibronically well-resolved emission spectrum of the jet-cooled o-tolunitrile in the $S_{1}\rightarrow S_{0}$ transition was recorded in the uv region using a Fourier transform spectrometer equipped with a Quartz-uv beam splitter. The electronic transition and vibrational mode frequencies in the ground electronic state were accurately determined from the analysis of the spectra observed.

The technique of corona-excited supersonic expansion was applied to produce electronically excited but rovibrationally cooled m-tolunitrile. The well-resolved vibronic emission spectrum of the jet-cooled m-tolunitrile in the $S_1\;\rightarrow \;S_0$ transition was recorded in the uv region using a Fourier transform spectrometer equipped with a Quartz-uv beam splitter. From an analysis of the spectrum observed, it was confirmed that the electronic transition and vibrational mode frequencies in the ground electronic state were accurately determined.

The performance of turbo code is improved by updating extrinsic information. The bit patterns are categorized by the transition characteristics of extrinsic information in this paper. And the distribution of these patterns is surveyed according to signal-to-noise ratio. Based on the results, the dominant error pattern is determined at high signal-to-noise ratio range. Thus, it is expected to improve the error performance in the error floor region by correcting the dominant error pattern which is found in this paper.

Sodium niobate single crystals were grown by high temperature solution growth with Na2O/B2O3 flux. The phase transitions and domain structures of sodium niobate were observed using transmission polarizing microscope from room temperature to $650^{\circ}C$. There was imperfect extinction region within as-grown crystals and this area could be removed by heat treatment. The area existed within crystal till 3$65^{\circ}C$, in which temperature the space group of sodium niobate is changed from Pbma to Pmnm. The phase transition from Pbma to Pmnm happened abruptly with changing domain structure. At 48$0^{\circ}C$, 52$0^{\circ}C$ and 572$^{\circ}C$, the colors and walls of domains were changed. All domains disappeared and the space group of sodium niobate was changed from P4/mbm to Pm3m at 64$0^{\circ}C$. When sodium niobate changed from high temperature phase to low temperature phase, the memory effect of domain structure was not observed.
