A novel Er(III) complex with oxydiacetate and 1,10-phenanthroline was synthesized and its structure and luminescence properties were characterized. The complex of $[Er(ODA){\cdot}(phen){\cdot}4H_2O]^+$ crystallizes in the monoclinic space group $P2_1$/n with a = 12.216(4) ${\AA}$, b = 16.680(2) ${\AA}$, c = 12.627(3) ${\AA}$, ${\beta}=108.30(2)^{\circ}$, V = 2442.7(11) ${\AA}^3$, Z = 4 and ${\rho}=1.841 g/cm^3$. When the complex is excited at the He-Cd 325-nm line, it produces two broad bands spanning the regions 350-650 nm and 1200-1650 nm. The emission band of the complex is characterized by a series of spectral dips in the visible emission profile. The complex exhibits sensitized near- IR emission via two kinds of energy transfers from phen to Er(III): nonradiative and radiative energy transfers.

The microstructure, electrical and dielectric characteristics of ZnO varistors were investigated at various metal oxide (NiO, MgO, and Cr$_2$O$_3$) additives. The average grain size was increased with addition of NiO while that was decreased with addition of Cr$_2$O$_3$-Thereby, the varistor voltage was higher in Cr$_2$O$_3$-added composition. Among varistors, the varistor added with Cr$_2$O$_3$ exhibited the highest nonlinearity, with 40.5 in the nonlinear exponent and 2.7 ${\mu}$A in the leakage current and its dielectric dissipation factor was relatively low value of 0.0589.

The effects of $Dy_2O_3$ and $Er_2O_3$ co-doping on electrical properties and temperature stability of barium titanate ($BaTiO_3$) ceramics were investigated in terms of microstructure and structural analysis. The dielectric constant and the insulation resistance (IR) of 0.7 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ and 0.3 mol% $Er_2O_3$ co-doped dielectrics had about 60% and 20% higher than the values of undoped one, respectively, and the temperature coefficient of capacitance (TCC) met the X7R specification. The addition of $Dy_2O_3$ contributed to electrical properties caused by increase of tetragonality; however, preferential diffusion of $Dy^{3+}$ ions toward A site in $BaTiO_3$ grain exhibited an adverse effect on temperature stability by grain growth. On the other hand, The $Er_2O_3$ addition in $BaTiO_3$ could affect the TCC behavior and the IR with suppression of grain growth caused by reinforcement of grain boundary and electrical compensation. Therefore, the enhanced electrical properties and temperature stability through the co-doping could be deduced from the increase of tetragonality and the suppression of grain growth.

Single crystals of Yttrium Calcium Oxyborate (YCOB) doped with different concentrations of Er3+ and Yb3+ ions were growth by Czochralski method. High qualities of crystals in morphology and transparency were obtained . Analysis on crystal structure and lattice parameters were performed by X-ray diffraction method. It was found that congruent melting composition is YCA4.2O1.2(BO3)3. Absorption and fluorescence properties of grown crystals were also reported.

Six different SiC ceramics with SiO2-Re2O3 (Re=Yb, Er, Y, Dy, Gd, Sm) as sintering additives have been fabricated by hot-pressing the SiC-Re2Si2O7 compositions at 1850$^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr under a pressure of 25 MPa. The room temperature strneth and the fracture toughness of the hot-pressed ceramics were characterized and compared with those of the ceramics sintered with YAG (Y3Al5O12). Five SiC ceramics (Re=Yb, Er, Y, Dy, Gd) investigated herein showed sintered densities higher than 94% of theoretical. Tthe SiC-Re2Si2O7 compositions showed lower strength and comparable toughness to those from SiC-YAG composition, owing to the chemical reaction between SiO2 and SiC during sintering. SiC ceramics fabricated from a SiC-Y2Si2O7 composition showed the best mechanical properties of 490 MPa and 4.8 MPa$.$m1/2 among the compositions investigated herein.

It was grown ZrO2:10 mol% Y2O3 single crystals doped with 1 wt% of rare earth metal ion (Ce, Pr, Nd, Er, Eu) by Skull Method. Grown crystals showed Ce:orange-red, Pr:golden-yellow, Nd:lilac, Er:pink, Eu:light pink due to dopant effect. It was examined color centers in light absorption pattern of visible region (λ= 300~700 nm); in as grown samples, absorption by Ce4+, (Pr4+, Pr3+), Nd3+, Er3+, Eu3+ ions were important, and in samples after vacuum annealing, decrease of absorption by Pr4+ ion and increase of absorption by Pr3+ ion was important, and absorption by Ce3+, Eu2+ was important due to reduction of activator.
