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.

Thin films of $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}\;nBaTiO_3(n=1&2)$ were prepared using sols erived Ba-Bi-Ti complex alkoxides. The sols were spin-cast onto $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrates and followed by pyrolysis for 1 hr at $620^{\circ}C,\;700^{\circ}C\;and\;750^{\circ}C$ In the thin films a pyrochlore phase seemed to be formed at a lower temperature and then tran-formed to the layered perovskite phase as the heating temperature increased. In the thin films pyrolyzed at formed to the layered perovskte phase as the heating temperature increased. In the films pyrolyzed at $750^{\circ}C$ the amount of $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}{\cdot}BaTiO_3$ reached to 94% while $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}{\cdot}BaTiO_3$ was 77% in composition. This result shows that the formation of the layered pervoskite phase becomes difficult as the amount of complexing $BaTiO_3$ increases. The microstructures and the electrical properties of the thin films were gen-erally improved with the incease of the heating temperature. However the presence of the pyrochlore phase could not be removed effectively. Our study showed that the electrical properties of $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}{\cdot}BaTiO_3$ were pronouncedly improved with complexing with BaTiO3 when compared to those of $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ while the presence of the pyrochlore phase was detrimental to the those of $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}{\cdot}2BaTiO_3$.

In order to synthesize Ba-ferrite fine particles by molten salt method and inhibit the abnormal grain growth of sintered specimen, KCI anti NaCl were added to basic composition to 50% by weight, and added 1 male% of $SiO_2$ to control the shape of Ba-ferrite particles. $H_{c}$ and $M_{r}$ were decreased when F $e^{3+}$ was substituted with $Co_{2+}$ and $Ti_{4+}$ from x=0 to x=1.0 in $BaFe_{12-2x}$ $Ti_{x}$ $Co_{x}$ $O_{19}$ , and 1 mole% $SiO_2$ increased the size but shortened c-axis of hexagonal ferrite. Seeds added in Ba-ferrite particle effected inhibition of abnormal grain growth during sintering.ing.g.

PTCR ceramics of $(Ba_{0.998}Sm_{0.002})TiO_3+0.001MnCO_3+xSiO_2$ (x=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 mol%) were fabricated by solid state method. Disk samples of diameter 5 mm and thickness about 1mm were sintered at $1,290^{\circ}C$ for 2 h in reduced atmosphere of $5%H_2-95%N_2$ followed by re-oxidation at $600^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. in $20%O_2-80%N_2$.and their microstructures and electrical properties were investigated with SEM and Multimeter. The color of sintered samples was strongly dependent on $SiO_2$ content showing that the color of samples with $SiO_2$ of 1~2 mol% was gray but that of samples with $SiO_2$ of 4~6 mol% was changed from gray to blue, which seems to be related with the reduction of samples due to the oxygen vacancies created during the sintering in reduced atmosphere. $SiO_2$ content had a great influence on the microstructure and the electrical properties. With increasing $SiO_2$ content, the grain size of samples increased and the resistivity as well as the resistivity jump ($R_{285}/R_{min}$) decreased, which is considered to be attributed to the resistivity change at grain interior and grain boundary due to the fast mass transfer through $SiO_2$ liquide phase during the sintering. Samples with 2 mol% $SiO_2$ has the resistivity of $202{\Omega}cm$ and the resistivity jump of 3.28. It is expected that $SiO_2$ doped $BaTiO_3$ based PTC ceramics can be used for multilayered PTC thermistor due to the resistance to the sintering in reduced atmosphere.

In this paper, reflectance and the dielectric characteristics for $P_2O_5$-ZnO-BaO system and $SiO_2-ZnO-B_2O_3$ system have been investigated as a function of contents of $TiO_2$. The reflectance was decreased with increasing the contents of $TiO_2$ contents, and the reflectance of $P_2O_5$-ZnO-BaO system was lowered than that of $SiO_2-ZnO-B_2O_3$ system. The dielectric constant of $P_2O_5$-ZnO-BaO system was higher than $SiO_2-ZnO-B_2O_3$ system, and the dielectric constant in the both system was increased with increasing of $TiO_2$ contents. This can explained as the space charge effects. These results are could be applied to the lower dielectrics layer of PDP required high reflective ratio and breakdown strength.

$Ba_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ ($B_2S:Eu^{2+}$) powders were prepared by firing the dry gel obtained by the sol-gel and the hybrid process (sol-gel and combustion), respectively, and their structure and luminescence were investigated. Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was used as a Si source. The phase transition was observed with the TEOS content. With 1.2M TEOS, the powders prepared by the sol-gel process without prior calcination were composed of the $B_2S:Eu^{2+}$ single phase, whereas those by the sol-gel and the hybrid process with prior calcination consisted of the dominant $B_2S:Eu^{2+}$ and minor $BaSiO_3:Eu^{2+}$ ($BS:Eu^{2+}$) phases and their emission intensities were approximately two times higher than those without prior calcination. The hybrid process could reduce the process time innovatively compared to the sol-gel process, even though the former was a little inferior to the latter in the emission intensity of $B_2S:Eu^{2+}$. With 1.1M TEOS, the $B_2S:Eu^{2+}$ single phase was obtained by the hybrid process, and its green emission was observed at 505 nm originated from the $4f^65d^1{\rightarrow}4f^7$ transition of $Eu^{2+}$ ions.

M type hexa-ferrites were prepared by means of a solid state reaction using mill scale, $Fe_{2}O_{3}$, and the mixture of mill scale and $Fe_{2}O_{3}$. The mixture of powders were calcined at $1150^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs. and sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs, with varing the mole ratio of $Fe_{2}O_{3}$/$BaCO_{3}$, by 5.2~6.0. And the magnetic properties and morphologies of Baferrites with impurities such as $SiO_{2},\;Al_{2}O_{3},\;MgO,\;CaO\;and\;Na_{2}O$ in the mill scale were investigated. The magnetic properties were worsened by the addition of $Na_{2}O because of non-reacted iron oxide and intermediate compound of $BaFe_{2}O_{4}$ but they were improved apparently by the addition of $Si_{2}$ and $Al_{2}O_{3}$ in the composition of $BaO.5.6Fe_{2}O_{3}$. Moreover, $M_{s}$ decreased but $_{B}H_{C}$ increased through the addition of $Al_{2}O_{3}$ in Ba-ferrite. ${(BH)}_{max}$ of sintered BM($BaCO_{3}$, mill scale mixture) and BFM($BaCO_{3}$, $Fe_{2}O_{3}$, and null scale mixture) were 0.86 and 1.04 MGOe, respectively, and the magnetic properties were changed around $440^{\circ}C$.

The friction characteristics of automotive brake friction materials that contained different ceramic content were investigated. Several kinds of raw materials, such as resin-based binder, reinforcing fiber, friction restraint, abrasive, and filling materials were mixed, pressed, and heated in order to make the brake friction materials. The contents of SiC and $BaSO_4$ changed from 5 vol% to 20 vol%, respectively. In addition to this, the content of $Al_2O_3$ adjusted from 1 vol% to 16 vol%. The surface morphology of the SiC containing sample appeared rough while more debris was observed when the contents of SiC increased. This implies that the SiC containing brake composite was not adequate for the automobile. However, the relatively smooth surface was observed in samples that contained the $Al_2O_3$. But the roughness was low with a content of 11 vol% $Al_2O_3$ compared to the other samples. This is consistent with the abrasive properties of the samples. In the case of $BaSO_4$ containing samples, the smoothes surface was observed in the contents of 15 vol% $BaSO_4$. Thus, it was concluded that the 11 vol% $Al_2O_3$ and 15 vol% $BaSO_4$ containing composite would be the optimum content for the brake composite. Similar to the results of the surface morphology, the abrasion resistance consistently decreased when the content of SiC increased. On the contrary, the sample that contained 11 vol% $Al_2O_3$ and 15 vol% $BaSO_4$ showed the highest abrasion resistance compared to the other samples.

Elelctrical properties of $BaTiO_3$ were characterized with addition of $Y_2O_3, CaO,SiO_2$ and Mn to develope the composition of PTC thermistor suitable as a current limiting device for automobile motor system. With the addition of 0.2 mol% $Y_{2}O_3$ to $BaTiO_3$, the minimum resistance of 16.5 ${\Omega}{\cdot}$cm was obtained at room temperature. $(Ba_{0.996}Y_{0.004})TiO_3$ exibited a minimum resistance of 50${\Omega}{\cdot}$cm with addition of 1.6 mol% $SiO_2$. The grain size of $(Ba_{0.996}Y_{0.004})TiO_3$ decreased from 34.95 ${\mu}$m to 13.4 ${\mu}$m and thus breakdown voltage could be improved by changing the composition as $(Ba_{0.996}Y_{0.004}Ca_{0.05}) TiO_3$ with substition of 5 mol% Ca into Basites. When 0.04 mol% Mn was added, the optimum PTCR properties could be obtained : the resistivity at room temperature and ${\rho}_{max}/{\rho}_{min}$ were 30~40${\Omega}{\cdot}$cm and $1.5{\times}10^5$ respectively.

In this study, the structural properties were Investigated for the deposited (Ba,Sr)(Nb,Ti)O$_3$[BSNT] thin films grown on Pt/TiO$_2$/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by RF sputtering method. The structural properties of the BSNT thin films affected by the Ar/02 ratios were Investigated. In the case of the BSNT thin films deposited with condition of 60/40(Ar/O$_2$) ratio, the BaTiO$_3$, SrTiO$_3$ and BaNbO$_3$ phases were showed. The composition ratio of Nb and Ti in the BSNT thin films were nearly equivalent. Also, in the BSNT thin films deposited with condition of 60/40 and 80/20(Ar/O$_2$) ratios, the composition of Ba, Sr, Nb and Ti were relatively uniform. The Ba, Sr, Nb and Ti in the BSTN thin films were not diffused into the Pt layer.
