중간온도$(700\~800^{\circ}C)$형 고체산화물 연료전지(solid oxide filet cells)의 양극재료로 이용을 목표로 $Gd_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}Co_{1-x}Fe_xO_3,\;(x=0.0\~0.5)$ 분말을 합성하고 이의 열적 안정성, 전도특성을 조사하였다. 또한 이를 CGO(Cerium-Gadolinium Oxide) 전해질 디스크에 부착하여 양극특성을 조사하였다. 양극재료를 구연산 법에 의하여 $800^{\circ}C$에서 하소하여 분말을 합성하였을 때, Fe의 함량에 상관없이 모두 페롭스카이트 단일상을 얻을 수 있었다. 합성분말의 열적 안정성을 측정하였는데, Fe의 함량이 적을수록 열적 안정성이 열악하여 x=0.0인 시료는 $1300^{\circ}C$에서 분해되었다 그러나 Fe이 치환된 재료의 경우에는 $1400^{\circ}C$까지 분해현상은 없었으나 $1300^{\circ}C$ 근처에서 용응되는 현상이 관찰되어 양극층의 접착온도를 $1300^{\circ}C$ 이하로 설정해야 함을 알았다. $Gd_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}Co_{1-x}Fe_xO_3,\;(x=0.0\~0.5)$로 반쪽전지를 제작하여 $800^{\circ}C$ 공기중에서 전지를 가동하며 양극의 산소환원 반응에 대한 활성을 조사한 결과 조성에 상관없이 $La_{0.9}Sr_{0.1}MnO_3$보다 우수한 활성을 가졌고, $x=0.0\~0.5$인 전극중에서는 x=0.2일 때 가장 좋은 양극특성을 보였다. 이와 같이 x=0.2인 경우에 가장 우수한 활성을 갖는 이유를, Fe의 함량이 많은 경우는 열적 안정성이 우수하나산소환원 반응에 대한 활성은 감소하므로 x=0.2에서 열적 안정성과 활성 사이에 최적의 trade-off가 나타남으로 설명하였다. x=0.2인 시료의 전기 전도도를 직류 4단자법에 의하여 측정하였을 때 $800^{\circ}C$에서 51 S/cm의 값을 나타내었고, 교류 2단자법으로 측정한 이온 전도도는$800^{\circ}C$에서 $6.0\times10^{-4}S/cm$의 값을 나타내었다. 즉 이 물질은 혼합 전도체로서 전극의 전 표면이 반응의 활성점으로 작용할 가능성이 있고, 이로부터 이들이 $La_{0.9}Sr_{0.1}MnO_3$보다 우수한 양극활성을 갖는 이유를 설명할 수 있었다.

Three isostructural lanthanide coordination polymers, $[Ln(L)_3(H_2O)_2](H_2O)_3$ {Ln = Eu (1), Tb (2), Gd (3); L = $trans$-3-(3-pyridyl)acrylate, (3-py)-CH=CH-COO}, were prepared from HL, lanthanide nitrate, and NaOH in $H_2O$ by microwave heating. In all coordination polymers, the metal is bonded to eight oxygen atoms, and all pyridyl nitrogen atoms do not coordinate to the metals. All polymers have a 1-D loop-connected chain structure. The hydrogen atoms in the aqua ligands and lattice water molecules all participate in the hydrogen bonds of the O-$H{\cdots}O$ or O-$H{\cdots}N$ type. The hydrogen bonds connect the 1-D chains to create a 2-D network. Polymer 1 exhibited red luminescence in the solid state at room temperature.

New pyrochlore-type phases($A_2$$B_2$$O_{7}$) were synthesized in the systems: CaO-C$eO_2$-T$iO_2$, CaO-$UO_2$(T$hO_2$)-Z$rO_2$, CaO-$UO_2$(T$hO_2$)-$Gd_2$$O_3$-T$iO_2$-Z$rO_2$, 및 CaO-T$hO_2$-S$nO_2$. The starting materials were pressed with the pressure of 200~400 MPa and sintered at 1500~ 155$0^{\circ}C$ for 4~8 hours in air and at 1300~ 135$0^{\circ}C$ for 5 ~50 hours under oxygen atmosphere. The products were characterized using XRD, SEM/EDS and TEM. In the bulk compositions of CaCe$Ti_2$$O_{7}$, CaTh$Zr_2$$O_{7}$,($Ca_{0.5}$ Gd$Th_{0.5}$)(ZrTi)$O_{7}$) ($Ca_{0.5}$Gd$Th_{0.5}$)(ZrTi)$O_{7}$, ($Ca_{0.5}$G$dU_{0.5}$)(ZrTi)$O_{7}$ and CaTh$Sn_2$$O_{7}$ , pyrochlore was the major phase, together with other oxide phase $of_2$$O_{7}$ fluorite structure. In the samples with target compositions CaU$Zr_2$$O_2$및 $Ca_{0.5}$ G$dU_{0.5}$)$Zr_2$T$iO_{7}$ pyrochlore was not identified, but a fluorite-structured phase was detected. The formation factor as the stable phase depended on crystal chemical characteristics of the actinide and lanthanide elements of the system concerned.

Trivalent rare-earth ($RE^{3+}=Eu^{3+}\;and\;Tb^{3+}$) ions activated $CaGd_4O_7$ phosphors were synthesized by a sol-gel process. After annealing at $1,500^{\circ}C$, the XRD patterns of the phosphor confirmed their monoclinic structure. The photoluminescence excitation spectra of $Eu^{3+}$ and $Tb^{3+}$ doped $CaGd_4O_7$ phosphor shows the broad-band excitations in the shorter wavelength region due to charge transfer band of completely filled $O^{2-}$ to the partially filled $Eu^{3+}$ ions and f-d transitions of $Tb^{3+}$ ions, respectively. The photoluminescence spectra show that the reddish-orange ions and green emission for $Eu^{3+}$ and $Tb^{3+}$ ions, respectively. Owing to the importance of thermal quenching property in the technological parameters, the temperature-dependent luminescence properties of these phosphors were measured for examing the suitability of their applications in the development of light emitting diodes (LEDs). In addition to those measurements, the cathodoluminescence properties were examined by changing the acceleration voltage and filament current. The calculated chromaticity coordinates of these phosphors were close proximity to those of commercially available phosphors for LED and field emission display devices.

The ingot fabrication conditions related with the thermal shock bearing phase and microstructure have investigated for the rare earth zirconate ceramic material, lanthanum gadolinium zirconate, as a thermal barrier coating using electron beam evaporation method. The thermal shock resistance of the prepared ingot was evaluated by high energy electron beam irradiation. The rare earth zirconate ceramic powder was prepared by controlling the raw material powder composition of $La_2O_3$, $Gd_2O_3$ and $ZrO_2$ so as to have a composition of $(La_{0.3}Gd_{0.7})_2Zr_2O_7$ which was selected from the former study. Ingot samples were prepared under two conditions. The first condition is prepared by sintering the prepared powder mixture to form an ingot. The second condition is prepared by calcining the prepared powder mixture to form a composite phase and then sintering to form an ingot. X-ray diffraction(XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) were used to analyze phase forming behavior and microstructure of ingot samples. Nanoindentation method used to obtain elastic modulus and hardness of each ingot specimen. Also the stress distribution of ingot was simulated by using FEM method assuming the ingot surface was exposed to electron beam. As a results, in the case of an ingot having a network-shaped microstructure in which relatively coarse pores are included, it seems that the thermal shock resistance was higher than in the case of an ingot having a microstructure composed of relatively fine grains only or particles with the similar level size when the high energy electron beam irradiation.

Gadolinium tetraboride ($GdB_4$) was synthesized by reduction of $Gd_2O_3$ using boron carbide in presence of carbon. Effect of temperature on product quality was investigated. Pure $GdB_4$ powder was obtained in vacuum at $1500^{\circ}C$. Pressureless sintering experiments revealed that sintering takes place only above $1600^{\circ}C$. A maximum density of 77.1% of the theoretical value was obtained at $1800^{\circ}C$ by pressureless sintering. Hot pressing resulted in 95.5% of theoretical density at the lower temperature of $1700^{\circ}C$ under 35 MPa pressure. Hardness and fracture toughness of dense $GdB_4$ were measured and found to be 21.4 GPa and $2.3MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively. After exposure to air at $900^{\circ}C$, the formation of a porous and non-protective oxide layer was observed.

Red europium(III) and green terbium(III) activating phosphors have been doped and co-doped in gadolinium oxide supports by a hydrothermal method. Scanning electron microscope images reveal that they are one-dimensional nanorods of 40~50 wide and 250~300 nm long. The gadolinium oxide supports show Gd(OH)3 of hexagonal phase and Gd2O3 of cubic crystal structure before and after a thermal annealing, respectively based on X-ray diffraction analysis. Their physicochemical characteristics have further been examined by photoluminescence spectroscopy, FT-IR, UV-visible absorption, and optical microscope. The emission colors are characterized by CIE coordinates. In addition, the emissions from Eu(III) and Tb(III) are assigned to $5D0{\rightarrow}7FJ$ (J=0,1,2,3,4) and $5D4{\rightarrow}FJ$ (J=6,5,4,3), respectively.

$(Y,Gd)BO_3$: Eu, $Zn_2$$SiO_4$ : Mn and $BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ : Eu phosphors used in PDP were continuously irradiated by vacuum ultra violet generated from the penning gas (96%Ar+4%Xe) discharge and then the change of emitting intensity with time was investigated. The brightness of these phosphors decreased exponentially with VUV excitation time. The experimental data showed that the degradation rate increased in the order of $Zn_2$$SiO_4$ : Mn>(Y,Gd)$BO_3$: Eu>$BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ : Eu phosphor. This different degradation property of phosphors was interpreted in terms of brightness saturation and stability against VUV irradiation. It was found that the degradation property of $(Y,Gd)BO_3$ : Eu red phosphor synthesized by ultrasonic thermal spray was superior to commercial phosphor.
