Coating films of $SiO_2-TiO_2-AgO$ have been prepared on soda-lime-silica slide glasses and single crystal silicon wafer by the sol-gel method using a spin-coating technique. Commercially available tetraethyl orthosilicate, titanium trichloride, and silver-nitrates were used as starting materials. The heat treatment temperature of this coating films was $500^{\circ}C$ properly, obtained from TG-DTA result. The films with thickness of 310 nm were prepared by 5 times coating. In the case of l0 mol% AgO, the film showed a crack-free and smooth surface, but the higher Ago content exhibited the more pin hole and the segregated cluster of AgO. The IR absorbance of the films decreased in the range of 400 nm to 700 nm with the increase of annealing temperature. And the reflectance of the coating films decreased and the color was changed light yellow to white yellow with the increase of Ago content.

The electorchemical properties of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ added with Cr was tested. The addition or substitution of atoms to $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ are expected to modify the crystal structure, and therefore to change the electrochemical performances of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$. After the spinel structure $Li_4Ti_{5-x}Cr_xO_{12}$ (x = 0~0.2) were obtained via sol-gel method, the gel was heated in a muffle furnace at $800{\sim}850^{\circ}C$ for 12 h in air. The physical properties of the samples were characterized by TG-DTA, XRD, SEM, FT-IR, and the electrochemical properties were tested with battery cycler at 0.01~2.0 V range. The $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ exhibited 169.9 mAh/g at 1C and capacity recovery was 97.5% of the initial capacity at 0.1C. $Li_4Ti_{4.9}Cr_{0.1}O_{12}$ (Cr 1% added) showed best performance of 193.8 mAh/g at 1C and the capacity recovery was increased to 98.8% of the initial capacity at 0.1C.

The microwave sintered BaTiO3 samples were obtained by using the microwave sintering device which can precisely control the sintering temperature and the sinter time by using IR optical thermometer and PID temperature controller. During microwave sintering the internal temperature of samples were mesur-ed by the optical fiber thermometer to compare the sintering behaviors between microwave- and con-ventionally sintered ones. The former showed the faster rate of grain growth with sintering time and the larger grain size than the latter. Also they showed the similar pattern of dielectric properties with tem-perature changes from 2$0^{\circ}C$ to 16$0^{\circ}C$.

In this study, Li₂O-BaO-Ga₂O₃-TeO₂-TiO₂-GeO₂ glasses with high transmittance in mid-infrared region and high refractive indices were successfully synthesized. The relationship between glass properties and glass composition was analyzed. In Li₂O-BaO-Ga₂O₃-TeO₂-TiO₂-GeO₂ glass system, as increasing TeO₂ concentration, the refractive index increases and the glass transition temperature decreases. In addition, as increasing BaO concentration, the refractive index increases without decrease of Abbe number. The IR-cut off wavelength shifted to the longer wavelength with increasing TeO₂ and BaO contents due to their large molecular weight. The glass transition temperature significantly decreases when BaO was replaced with Li₂O.

Amphiphilic PCZ-r-PEG random copolymer assisted solvothermal process is used to prepare mesoporous $TiO_2$ microspheres generated from nanoparticles by self-assembly method. Synthesized PCZ-r-PEG is characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The mesoporous $TiO_2$ are prepared by PCZ-r-PEG, glucose, water in tertrahydrofuran solution at $150^{\circ}C$ for 12 h and the $TiO_2$ microspheres are calcined at $550^{\circ}C$ for 30 min to further crystallize and organic residue are removed. Morphology and crystallization phase is characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) respectively. The mesoporous $TiO_2$ crystallized in pure anatase phase with diameter of $300{\pm}20nm$.

The structural evolution during the thermal treatment of $70SiO_2-3OTiO_2(mole%)$ sol-gel derived powders and films was investigated by FT-IR, Raman and XPS, and XRD. From these results, the $TiO_2-rich$ regions involving $Ti^{4+}$ ions in octahedral coordination were confirmed to be amorphous at $600^{\circ}C$. However, Raman spectra along with XRD patterns indicated that at high temperature (above $700^{\circ}C)$, the amorphous $TiO_2was$ segregating to form anatase crystal. Also, the effect of experimental variables such as thermal treatment, heating rate and exposure to water vapor on structural changes, refractive index and thickness of the film coated on sodalime-silicate glass were investigated.

카메라 모듈용 적외선 차단 필터를 설계하고 이온빔 증착 장비를 이용한 코팅 공정 후 특성을 조사하였다. 코팅 실험에 앞서 Macleod 프로그램을 이용하여 640nm 차단 필터를 설계하였으며, 실험은 Ion-Assisted Deposition 장비를 사용하여 $TiO_2/SiO_2$ 유전층을 다층 박막으로 증착하였다. 투과도 분석에서 640nm 차단 필터는 설계 곡선과 약 8nm 이내에서 일치하였으며, 갓 성장된 박막 투과도는 400~600nm에서 약 80% 이었으며, 급속열처리 및 열처리 후 약 5% 증가된 투과도를 보였다. 표면거칠기 또한 감소하였다. 따라서 열처리로 인한 재결정화 및 결함감소에 의해 필터특성이 향상되었음을 알 수 있었다.

The growth characteristics of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) $Pb(Zr_xTi_{1-x})O_3 (PZT) thin films were investigated for the application of high-density ferroelectric random access memories (FRAM) devices beyond 64Mbit density. The supply control of Pb precursor plays the most critical role in order to achieve a reliable process for PZT thin film deposition. We have monitored the changes in the microstructure and electrical properties of films on increasing the Pb precursor supply into the reaction chamber. Under optimized conditions, $Ir/IrO_2/PZT(100nm)/Ir capacitor shows well-saturated hysteresis loops with a remanent polarization (Pr) of $~28{\mu}C/textrm{cm}^2$ and coercive voltage of 0.8V at 2.5V. Other issues such as step coverage, compositional uniformity and low temperature deposition was discussed in viewpoint of actual device application.

The physicochemical properties of crystalline titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO₂ NPs) were investigated by comparing amorphous (amTiO₂), anatase (aTiO₂), metaphase of anatase-rutile (arTiO₂), and rutile (rTiO₂) NPs, which were prepared at various calcination temperatures (100℃, 400℃, 600℃, and 900℃). X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses confirmed that the phase-transformed TiO₂ had the characteristic features of crystallinity and average size. The surface chemical properties of the crystalline phases were different in the spectral analysis. As anatase transformed to the rutile phase, the band of the hydroxyl group at 3,600-3,100 cm^-1 decreased gradually, as assessed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). For ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectra, the maximum absorbance of anatase TiO₂ NPs at 309 nm was blue-shifted to 290 nm at the rutile phase with reduced absorbance. Under the electric field of capillary electrophoresis (CE), TiO₂ NPs in anatase migrated and detected as a broaden peak, whereas the rutile NPs did not. In addition, anatase showed the highest photocatalytic activity in an UV-irradiated dye degradation assay in the following order: aTiO₂ > arTiO₂ > rTiO₂. Overall, the phases of TiO₂ NPs showed characteristic physicochemical properties regarding size, surface chemical properties, UV absorbance, CE migration, and photocatalytic activity.

Porous $TiO_2-SiO_2$ particles were synthesized by co-assembly of nanoparticles of $TiO_2$ and $SiO_2$ in evaporating aerosol droplets. Poly styrene latex (PSL) particles were employed as a template of porous particles. Flowrate of dispersion gas, weight ratio of $TiO_2/SiO_2$ and $SiO_2$ concentration in the precursor, and PSL size were chosen as process variables. The morphology, crystal structure, chemical bonding, and pore size distribution were analyzed by FE-SEM, XRD, FT-IR, BET. The morphology of porous $TiO_2-SiO_2$ particles was spherical and the average particle size range were from 1 to $10{\mu}m$. The particles were composed of meso and macro pores. The average particle diameter and pore volume of the as prepared particles were dependant on process variables. It was found that UV-Vis absorption of the porous particles was comparable with pure $TiO_2$ nanoparticles even though $TiO_2/SiO_2$ ratio is low in the porous particles.
