Solid oxide electrolytes of the MCe1-xGdxO3-x/2 (M: Ba, Mg. x=0.0-0.20) system were prepared using powders synthesized by the "liquid mix" method and calcined from the cross-linked polyacrylic polymer. The specimens were analyzed using XRD and SEM with EDX, and the sintering behavior of the electrolytes and their electrical conductivity were also studied. Although Mg-cerate is relatively inferior to Ba-cerate in the sinterability and chemical homogenity(EDX analysis data), both the Ba- and the Mg-cerate electrolytes at 80$0^{\circ}C$ show their maximum conductivities at x=0.10 and their values are in the same order of magnitude, i.e., 3.5$\pm$0.17.10-2(ohm.cm)-1.ohm.cm)-1.

By addition of 1～5mol% CeO$_2$to powders with composition in the BaO-Nd$_2$O$_3$-TiO$_2$, temperature coefficient of permittivity of sintered ceramics may be decreased from approximately-140ppm/$^{\circ}C$～-65ppm/$^{\circ}C$. Dense, fine grained ceramics were prepared with permitivity within the range of 78～92 and Q above 1000.

High-efficiency mutually pumped phase conjugation (MPPC) has been realized in a BaTiO$_3$:Ce crystal in the bridge geometry. The laser source is a dye laser operating from 580 to 650 nm. We have observed that, with a beam ratio of 1, self-pumped phase conjugation (SPPC) appears and competes with MPPC at short wavelengths while it disappears at long wavelengths. When the beam ratio is slightly higher than 1, SPPC no longer occurs. Phase conjugate reflectivity near 500% has been obtained at a beam ratio of 70. Our experiments demonstrate that Ce-doped BaTiO$_3$crystals, which have already been found efficient in SPPC experiments, are also efficient for the generation of MPPC.

We have synthesized bluish-green, highly-efficient $BaSi_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$ and $(Ba,Sr)Si_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$ phosphors through a conventional solid state reaction method using metal carbonate, $Si_3N_4$, and $Eu_2O_3$ as raw materials. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of these phosphors revealed that a $BaSi_2O_2N_2$ single phase was obtained. The excitation and emission spectra showed typical broadband excitation and emission resulting from the 5d to 4f transition of $Eu^{2+}$. These phosphors absorb blue light at around 450 nm and emit bluish-green luminescence, with a peak wavelength at around 495 nm. From the results of an experiment involving Eu concentration quenching, the relative PL intensity was reduced dramatically for Eu = 0.033. A small substitution of Sr in place of Ba increased the relative emission intensity of the phosphor. We prepared several white LEDs through a combination of $BaSi_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$, YAG:$Ce^{3+}$, and silicone resin with a blue InGaN-based LED. In the case of only the YAG:$Ce^{3+}$-converted LED, the color rendering index was 73.4 and the efficiency was 127 lm/W. In contrast, in the YAG:$Ce^{3+}$ and $BaSi_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$-converted LED, two distinct emission bands from InGaN (450 nm) and the two phosphors (475-750 nm) are observed, and combine to give a spectrum that appears white to the naked eye. The range of the color rendering index and the efficiency were 79.7-81.2 and 117-128 lm/W, respectively. The increased values of the color rendering index indicate that the two phosphor-converted LEDs have improved bluish-green emission compared to the YAG:Ce-converted LED. As such, the $BaSi_2O_2N_2:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor is applicable to white high-rendered LEDs for solid state lighting.

The potential candidates for IT-SOFCs cathode materials, $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ (BSCF) and $La_{0.6}Ba_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_{3-{\delta}}$ (LBCF) powders, were synthesized by a EDTA-citrate combined method from $Sr(NO_3)_2$, $Ba(NO_3)_2$, $La(NO_3)_3{\cdot}6H_2O$, $Co(NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$, $Fe(NO_3)_3{\cdot}9H_2O$, citric acid and $EDTA-NH_3$. The cathode performance of symmetrical electrochemical cells consisting of BSCF-GDC or LBCF-GDC composite electrodes and a GDC electrolyte was investigated using by AC impedance spectroscopy at the temperature range of 500 to $700^{\circ}C$. It was found that a single phase perovskite could be successfully synthesized when the precursor is heated at $850^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. Due to thermal expansion mismatch between BSCF and GDC, the composite cathodes with lower GDC content than 45 wt% were peeled off from the GDC electrolyte and their electrode polarization resistance was estimated to be high. The thermal expansion coefficient of BSCF-GDC composites was decreased with increasing the GDC content and the electrode peeling off did not occur in BSCF-45 and 55 wt% GDC composites. BSCF-45 wt% GDC composite electrode showed the lowest area specific resistances (ASR) of 0.15 and $0.04{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ at 600 and $700^{\circ}C$, respectively. On the other hand, LBCF-GDC composite cathodes showed higher ASR than the BSCF-45 and 55 wt% GDC and their cathode performance were decreased with the GDC content.

$BaCe_{0.9}Gd_{0.1_O_{2.95}$ powder was synthesized by oxalate coprecipitation method. Precipitate with a stoichimetric ratio of the cations was prepared by adding a mixture of Ba, Ce and Gd nitrate solution to an oxalic acid solution at pH 4. Reaction between the constituent oxides to form a perovskite phase was initiated at $800^{\circ}C$ and a single phase $BaCe_{0.9}Gd_{0.1_O_{2.95}$ powder having good sinterability was obtained after calcination at $1000^{\circ}C$. Sintering green compacts of this powder for 6 h showed a considerable densification to start at $1100^{\circ}C$ and resulted in 93% and 97% relative densities at $1300^{\circ}$ and at $1450^{\circ}C$, respectively. Whereas the power compacts prepared by solid state reaction had lower relative densities, 78% at $1300^{\circ}$and 90% at $1450^{\circ}C$. Fine particles of $CeO_2$ second phase were observed in the surface of the sintered compacts. This was attributed to the evaporation of BaO from the surface that had been exposed during thermal etching.

Opal glass samples having different chemical compositions were synthesized and transparent glass was obtained after melting. The effects of $TiO_2$, $BaF_2$, and $CeO_2$ content on the color of the opal glass were studied by observing images of the opal samples and analyzing the results via ultraviolet visible spectroscopy and color spectrometry. The aesthetic properties of the opal glass were determined by studying the transmittance of visible light in the 400 nm to 700 nm range. The basic chemical composition of opal glass was $SiO_2$ 52.9 wt%, $Al_2O_3$ 12.35 wt%, $Na_2CO_3$ 15.08 wt%, $K_2CO_3$ 10.35 wt%, $Ca_3(PO)_4$ 4.41 wt%, $MgCO_3$ 1.844 wt%, $LiCO_3$ 2.184 wt%, and $TiO_2$ 0.882 wt%. The glass samples were prepared by varying the weight percentage of $TiO_2$, $BaF_2$, and $CeO_2$. The transmittance of visible light was decreased from 95 % to 75 % in the glass samples in which $TiO_2$ content was increased from 0 to 3.882 wt%. In the blue spectrum region, as the content of $TiO_2$ increased, the reflectance value was observed to become higher. This implies that $TiO_2$ content induces more crystal formation and has an important effect on the optical properties of the glass. The opalescence of opal samples that contained $CeO_2$ or $BaF_2$ is stronger than that in the samples containing $TiO_2$. Opal glass samples comprising $TiO_2$ had tetragonal lattice structures; samples including $CeO_2$ as an additive had cubic lattice structures (FCC, $CeO_2$).

For the fabrication of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ thick film, a substrate of $Y_2BaCuO_5$ was fabricated by adding $CeO_2$ into $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and two types of doping materials added with binder material were prepared. Each doping material was patterned on $Y_2BaCuO_5$substrate by the screen printing method and then was annealed at the temperature with a few step. It could be observed by X-ray diffraction patterns and SEM photographs that through the diffusion process of the $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and each doping material, the $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ phase was formed. And with n additive of $CeO_2$ the thickness of formed $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$decreased. From the experiment of current limiting on thick film, the sample with thiner thickness of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ showed the more effective characteristics of current limiting.

The dielectric and electrical characteristics of Ce doped (Ba0.6Sr0.4)TiO3 (BST) thin films were investigated as a function of Ce content. Both atomic force microscopy (AFM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that increasing the Ce doping ratio causes the decrease in grain size while the surface remains smooth and crack-free. The dielectric properties of the Ce doped BST films were found to be strongly dependent on the Ce contents. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the BST films decreased with increasing Ce content. However, it was also found that, compared with undoped films, the increase of Cecontent improves the leakage-current characteristics. The improvement of the electrical properties of Ce-doped BST films may be related to the decrease in the concentration of oxygen vacancies. The figure of merit (FOM) reached the maximum value of 48.9 at the 1 mol % of Cedoping. The dielectric constant, loss factor, and tunability of the 1 mol% Ce doped Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 thin films were 320, 0.011, and 46.3%, respectively.
