In the present work, $WO_3$ and $WO_3-TiO_2$ were prepared by the chemical deposition method. Structural variations, surface state and elemental compositions were investigated for preparation of $WO_3-TiO_2$ sonocatalyst. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were employed for characterization of these new photocatalysts. A rhodamine B (Rh.B) solution under ultrasonic irradiation was used to determine the catalytic activity. Excellent catalytic degradation of an Rh.B solution was observed using the $WO_3-TiO_2$ composites under ultrasonic irradiation. Sonocatalytic degradation is a novel technology of treating wastewater. During the ultrasonic treatment of aqueous solutions sonoluminescence, cavitaties and "hot spot" occurred, leading to the dissociation of water molecules. In case of a $WO_3$ coupled system, a semiconductor coupled with two components has a beneficial role in improving charge separation and enhancing $TiO_2$ response to ultrasonic radiations. In case of the addition of $WO_3$ as new matter, the excited electrons from the $WO_3$ particles are quickly transferred to $TiO_2$ particle, as the conduction band of $WO_3$ is 0.74 eV which is -0.5 eV more than that of $TiO_2$. This transfer of charge should enhance the oxidation of the adsorbed organic substrate. The result shows that the photocatalytic performance of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles was improved by loading $WO_3$.

[ $WO_3$ ]powders were ball-milled with an alumina ball for 0-72 hours. $In_2O_3$ doped $WO_3$ was prepared by soaking ball-milled $WO_3$ in an $InCl_3$ solution. The mixed powder was annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 30 min in an air atmosphere. A paste for screen-printing the thick film was prepared by mixing the $WO_3$:In2O3 powders with ${\alpha}$-terpinol and glycerol. $In_2O_3$ doped $WO_3$ thick films were fabricated into a gas sensor by a screen-printing method on alumina substrates. The structural properties of the $WO_3$:$InO_3$ thick films were a monoclinic phase with a (002) dominant orientation. The particle size of the $WO_3$:$InO_3$ decreased with the ball-milling time. The sensing characteristics of the $In_2O_3$ doped $WO_3$ were investigated by measuring the electrical resistance of each sensor in the test-box. The highest sensitivity to 5 ppm $CH_4$ gas and 5 ppm $CH_3CH_2CH_3$ gas was observed in the ball-milled $WO_3$:$InO_3$ gas sensors at 48 hours. The response time of $WO_3$:$In_2O_3$ gas sensors was 7 seconds and recovery time was 9 seconds for the methane gas.

In this study, development of a new LTCC material using non-glassy system was attempted with repsect to reducing the fabrication process steps and cost down. Lowering the sintering temperature can be achieved by liquid phase sintering. However, presence of liquid phases usually decrease dielectric properties, especially the quality factor. Therefore, the starting material must have quality factor as high as possible in microwave frequency range. And also, the material should have a low dielectric constant for enhancing the signal propagation speed. Regarding these factors, dielectric constants of various materials were estimated by the Clausius-Mosotti equation. Among them, $ZnWO_4$ was turned out the suitable LTCC material. $ZnWO_4$ can be sintered up to 98% of full density at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours. It's measured dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 15.5, 74380GHz, and $-70ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively. In order to modify the dielectric properties and densification temperature, $B_{2}O_{3}$ and $V_{2}O_{5}$ were added to $ZnWO_4$. 40 mol% $B_{2}O_{3}$ addition reduced the dielectric constant from 15.5 to 12. And the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency was improved from -70 to $-7.6ppm/^{\circ}C$. However, sintering temperature did not change due to either lack of liquid phase or high viscosity of liquid phase. Incorporation of small amount of $V_{2}O_{5}$ in $ZnWO_{4}-B_{2}O_{3}$ system enhanced liquid phase sintering. 0.1 wt% $V_{2}O_{5}$ addition to the $0.6ZnWO_{4}-0.4B_{2}O_{3}$ system, reduced the sintering temperature down to $950^{\circ}C$. Dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 9.5, 16737GHz, and $-21.6ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Due to their unique properties, tungsten borides are good candidates for the industrial applications where certain features such as high hardness, chemical inertness, resistance to high temperatures, thermal shock and corrosion. In this study, conditions were investigated for producing tungsten boride powder from tungsten oxide($WO_3$) by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) followed by HCl leaching techniques. In the first stage of the study, the exothermicity of the $WO_3$-Mg reaction was investigated by computer simulation. Based on the simulation experimental study was conducted and the SHS products consisting of borides and other compounds were obtained starting with different initial molar ratios of $WO_3$, Mg and $B_2O_3$. It was found that $WO_3$, Mg and $B_2O_3$ reaction system produced high combustion temperature and radical reaction so that diffusion between W and B was not properly occurred. Addition of NaCl and replacement of $B_2O_3$ with B successfully solved the diffusion problem. From the optimum condition tungsten boride($W_2B$ and WB) powders which has 0.1~0.9 um particle size were synthesized.

적층일체형 RF 수동소자 모듈 구현을 위한 저온소결 유전체로의 사용을 위해 B$_2$O$_3$ 및 CuO의 첨가가 PbWO$_4$-TiO$_2$계 세라믹의 고주파 유전특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구자는 PbWO$_4$가 8$50^{\circ}C$에서 소결이 가능하고 우수한 유전특성($\varepsilon$$_{r}$=21.5, Q$\times$f$_{0}$=37200 GHz, $ au$$_{f}$ =-31 ppm/$^{\circ}C$)을 보여 LTCC 재료로의 응용가능성이 있다고 판단하였다. 이에 PbWO$_4$의 $\tau$$_{f}$ 조절을 위해 TiO$_2$를 첨가하여 8$50^{\circ}C$에서 소결한 결과 TiO$_2$의 함량이 8.7 mol%일 때 $\tau$$_{f}$ 를 +0.2ppm/$^{\circ}C$로 조절할 수 있었고, 이때 $\varepsilon$$_{r}$ 및 Q$\times$f$_{0}$ 값은 각각 22.3과 21400GHz이었다. TiO$_2$첨가량 증가에 따른 Q$\times$F$_{0}$ 값의 감소는 결정립 크기 감소에 의한 것이었다. Q$\times$f$_{0}$ 값의 개선을 위해 다양한 량의 CuO 및 B$_2$O$_3$를 첨가한 결과, 최적의 유전특성을 얻기 위해서는 적정량의 첨가량이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. CuO 첨가의 경우 유전특성 개선을 위한 최적의 첨가량은 0.05 wt%이었고 이 조성을 8$50^{\circ}C$에서 소결한 결과, 얻어진 유전특성은 $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=23.5, Q$\times$f$_{0}$=32900 GHz, $\tau$$_{f}$ =-2.2 ppm/$^{\circ}C$이었다. B$_2$O$_3$첨가의 경우 최적의 첨가량은 1.0~2.5 wt%이었으며 8$50^{\circ}C$에서 소결한 경우 얻어진 유전특성은 $\varepsilon$$_{r}$20.3~22.1, Q$\times$f$_{0}$=48700~54700 GHz, $\tau$$_{f}$ =+2.4~+8.2ppm/$^{\circ}C$이었다.

PbWO$_4$ can be densified at 85$0^{\circ}C$ and it shows fairy good microwave dielectric properties; dielectric constant($\varepsilon$$_{r}$) of 21.5, quality factor(Q $\times$f$_{0}$) of 37,224 GHz, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency($\tau$/suf f/) of -31ppm/$^{\circ}C$. Due to its low sintering temperature, PbWO$_4$ can be used as a multilayered chip component at microwave frequency with high electrical performance by using high conductive electrode metals such as Ag and Cu. However, in order to use this material for microwave communication devices, the $\tau$$_{f}$ of PbWO$_4$ must be stabilized to near zero with high Q$\times$f$_{0}$. In present study, PbWO$_4$ was modified by adding TiO$_2$, B$_2$O$_3$, and CuO in order to improve the microwave dielectric properties without increasing the sintering temperature. The addition of TiO$_2$ increased the $\tau$$_{f}$ and $\varepsilon$$_{r}$, due to its high rr(200ppm/$^{\circ}C$) and $\varepsilon$$_{r}$(100). However, the addition of TiO$_2$ reduced the Q$\times$f$_{0}$ value. When the mot ratio of PbWO$_4$ and TiO$_2$ was 0.913:7.087, near zero $\tau$$_{f}$(0.2ppm/$^{\circ}C$) was obtaibed with $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=22.3, and Q$\times$f/$_{0}$=21,443GHz. With this composition, various amount of B$_2$O$_3$ and CuO were added in order to improve the quality factor. The addition, of B$_2$O$_3$ decreased the $\varepsilon$$_{r}$. However, increased Q$\times$f$_{0}$ and $\tau$$_{f}$. When 2.5 wt% of B$_2$O$_3$ was added to the 0.913PbWO$_4$-0.087TiO$_2$ ceramic, $\tau$$_{f}$ =8.2, $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=20.3, Q$\times$f$_{0}$=54784 GHz. When CuO added to the 0.913PbWO$_4$-0.087TiO$_2$ ceramic, $\tau$$_{f}$ was continuously decreased. And $\varepsilon$$_{r}$ . and Q$\times$f$_{0}$ were increased up to 1.0 wt% then decreased. At 0.1 wt% of CuO addition, the 0.913PbWO$_4$-7.087Ti0$_2$ Ceramic Showed $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=23.5, $\tau$$_{f}$=4.4ppm/$^{\circ}C$, and Q$\times$f$_{0}$=32,932 GHz.> 0/=32,932 GHz.X>=32,932 GHz.> 0/=32,932 GHz.

In the design of a complementary electrochromic windows based on $WO_3/Li^+$ conducting electrolyte/$V_2O_5$ system, a characterization of electrochromic properties of $WO_3/V_2O_5$ complementary devices as a function of thickness combinations is necessary in order to predict such as the safe operating voltage, the optical modulation range and the optical switching response. In this paper, the effects of $WO_3\;and\;V_2O_5$ thin films thickness combinations on device performance were systematically investigated.
