Titania is widely used as an effective photocatalyst for the photodegradation of environmental pollutants in air. In this study, novel N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts were synthesized via sol-gel method and characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometer, transmission electron microscope, and X-ray diffractometer. N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts were nano-sized with an average particle size of about 20 nm. The XRD pattern of N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts showed both anatase and rutile phases. The photocatalytic activity of N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts was evaluated by degradation of NO under UV and visible light irradiation at various parameters such as amount of photocatalyst, concentration of NO, and intensity of light. The photocatalytic activity of N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts was effective for the enhancement of the degradation of NO and higher than that of $TiO_2$ photocatlysts under UV and visible light irradiation.

A (5 wt.%)Mn-(1 wt.%)$V_{2}O_{5}/TiO_{2}$ catalyst were prepared by co-precipitation method and used for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of $NO_x$ with ammonia in the presence of oxygen. The properties of the catalysts were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature programmed reduction (TPR) and scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). The experimental results showed that (5 wt.%)Mn-(1 wt.%)$V_{2}O_{5}/TiO_{2}$ catalyst yielded 81% NO conversion at temperature as low as $150^{\circ}C$ and a space velocity of $2,400\;h^{-1}$. Crystalline phase of $Mn_{2}O_3$ was present at ${\ge}\;15%$ Mn on $V_{2}O_{5}/TiO_{2}$. XRD confirmed the presence of manganese oxide ($Mn_{2}O_{3}$) at $2{\theta}=32.978^{\circ}(222)$. The XRD patterns presented of (5 wt.%)Mn-(1 wt.%)$V_{2}O_{5}/TiO_{2}$ did not show intense or sharp peaks for manganese oxides and vanadia oxides. The TPR profiles of (5 wt.%)Mn-(1 wt.%)$V_{2}O_{5}/TiO_{2}$ catalyst showed main reduction peat of a maximum at $595^{\circ}C$.

최근 이동통신 및 위성통신 등 마이크로웨이브를 이용하는 통신분야의 시장이 급속히 신장됨에 따라 RF(Radio Frequency) 부품의 산업적 중요성이 부각되고 있다. RF 부품은 크게 능동부품과 필터로 대표되는 수동부품으로 대별되는데, duplexer나 필터는 현재 대부분 마이크로웨이브 세라믹유전체를 사용 제조하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이들 부품들에 사용가능한 세라믹유전체를 개발하기 위한 연구의 일환으로 BaO-$Sm_2$$O_3$-$TiO_2$계 세라믹의 마이크로웨이브 유전특성과 여기에$La_2\$$O_3$를 첨가한 계인 BaO-($Sm_1$$-_X$$La_X$$)_2$$O_3$-$TiO_2$ 세라믹유전체를 제조하여 마이크로웨이브 유전특성을 살펴보았다. RF 부품에 사용되는 세라믹유전체는 높은 유전율$\varepsilon_r$높은 품질계수 (Q) 및 안정된 온도특성 $\tau_f$ 등의 조건을 충족시켜야한다. 본 연구에서는 유전체의 $\varepsilon_r$ 및 Q의 측정에 디스크형 유전체공진기와 두개의 도체평행판을 사용한 Hakki-Coleman법을 사용하였으며, $\tau_f$는 fixture를 항온조에 넣어서 측정하였다. BaO-$Sm_2O_3-TiO_2$계의 경우 소결온도 $1350^{\circ}C$까지는 $\varepsilon_r$및 Q가 증가하나 그 이상의 소결온도에서는 감소한다. 그리고 $\tau_f$는 $-35_{ppm}/^{\circ}C$에서 소결온도에는 거의 의존하지 않았다. $La_2O_3$를 첨가한BaO-($Sm_1$$-_X$$La_X$$)_2$$O_3$-$TiO_2$ 세라믹의 마이크로웨이브 유전특성은 $La_2O_3$의 첨가량이 많을수록 $\tau_f$값이 음에서 양으로 이동함이 관찰되었으며, x=0.15에서 $\tau_f$가 0이 되어 마이크로웨이브 부품용 마이크로웨이브 세라믹유전체를 얻을 수 있음이 확인되었다.

Transparent xBa(La$_{1}$2/Nb$_{1}$2/)O$_{3}$-(1-x)Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_{3}$ (x=8.5, 9.0[mol.%], Zr/Ti=70/30~40/60) ceramics were fabricated by the two-stage sintering method, the electrooptic properties were investigated with Ba(La$_{1}$2/Nb$_{1}$2/)O$_{3}$ content and Zr/Ti composition ratio. Decreasing the Zr/Ti ratio, the electrooptic property was changed from a quadratic electrooptic effect to a linear electrooptic effcet. In the BLN-PZT 9.0/50/50 specimen having the tetragonal structure, the linear electrooptic coefficient had the highest value of 6.01*10$^{-10}$ [m/V] and in the BLN-PZT 9.0/55/45 specimen which located near the MPB region, the quadratic electrooptic coefficient had the highest value of 10.53*10$^{-16}$ [m$^{2}$/V$^{2}$].

An anomalous positive temperature coefficient of electrical resistivity (PTCR) was investigated in a ferroelectric lead-free perovskite-type compound $(Bi_{0.5}Na_{0.5})TiO_3$ within $BaTiO_3$-based solid solution ceramics. The effect of $Nb_2O_5$ content on the electrical properties and the microstructure of (1 - x) $BaTiO_3-x\;(Bi_{0.5}Na_{0.5})TiO_3$ (BNT) ceramics made using a conventional mixed oxide process also has been studied. The Curie temperature was obviously increased with the increasing of $(Bi_{0.5}Na_{0.5})TIO_3$ content. The Nb - doped BNT ceramics (x=0.01) display low resistivity values of $10^{1{\circ}}C-10^{2{\circ}}C$ ohm.cm at room temperature and the Curie Temperature of $T_c=160^{\circ}C$.

The effects of Ni²⁺ substitution for Mg²⁺-sites on the microwave dielectric properties of (Mg_1-xNi_x)(Ti_0.95(Mg_1/3Ta_2/3)_0.05)O₃ (0.01 ≤ x ≤ 0.05) (MNTMT) ceramics were investigated. MNTMT ceramics were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction. When the MgO / TiO₂ ratio was changed from 1.00 to 1.02, MgTi₂O₅ was detected as a secondary phase along with the MgTiO₃ main phase in the MNTMT specimens sintered at 1,400 ℃ for 4h. For the MNTMT specimens with MgO / TiO₂ = 1.07 sintered at 1,400 ℃ for 4h, a single phase of MgTiO₃ with an ilmenite structure was obtained from the entire range of compositions. The relative density of all the specimens sintered at 1,400 ℃ for 4h was higher than 95 %. The quality factor (Qf) of the sintered specimens depended strongly on the degree of covalency of the specimens, and the sintered specimens with x = 0.01 showed the maximum Qf value of 489,400 GHz. The dielectric constant (K) decreased with increasing Ni²⁺ content because Ni²⁺ had a lower dielectric polarizability (1.23ų) than Mg²⁺ (1.32ų). As Ni²⁺ content increased, the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (TCF) improved, from -55.56 to -21.85 ppm/℃, due to the increase in tolerance factor (t) and the lower dielectric constant (K).

The characteristics of the ablation plume generated by 532 nm Nd: YAG laser irradiation of a Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (PZT) target have been investigated using a pulsed-field time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOFMS). The relative abundance of O+, Ti+, Zr+, Pb+, TiO+, and ZrO+ ions has been measured and discussed. TiO+ and ZrO+ ions were also found to be particularly stable within the laser ablation plasma with respect to PbO+ species. The behavior of the temporal distributions of each ionic species was studied as a function of the delay time between the laser shot and the ion extraction pulse. The most probable velocity of each ablated ion is estimated to be Vmp=1.1-1.6x 105 cm/s at a laser fluence of 1.2 J/cm2, which is typically employed for the thin film deposition of PZT. The TOF distribution of Ti+ and Zr+ ions shows a trimodal distribution with one fast and two slow velocity components. The fast velocity component (6.8x 10' cm/s) appears to consist of directly ablated species via nonthermal process. The second component, originated from the thermal evaporation process, has a characteristic velocity of 1.4-1.6 x 105 cm/s. The slowest component (1.2 x 105 cm/s) is composed of a dissociation product formed from the corresponding oxide ion.

The (1-x)$MgTiO_3-SrTiO_3$ (x=0,0.1,0.2,0.3) ceramics were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The structural properties were investigated with sintering temperature and composition ratio by XRD, SEM and DT-TGA. Increasing the sintering temperature from $1300^{\circ}C$ to $1600^{\circ}C$, second phase was decreased and grain size was increased. The average grain size of the $0.8MgTiO_3-0.2SrTiO_3$ ceramics sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$ were $3.61{\mu}m$.
