The $Cu_2O/TiO_2$ inverse opal heterojunction arrays were developed by electrochemical deposition of $Cu_2O$ nanoparticles on $TiO_2$ inverse opal arrays. The $Cu_2O$ nanoparticles completely filled the inner pores of $TiO_2$ inverse opal film (prepared by liquid phase deposition with an average thickness of 400 nm) and covered the entire area; exhibiting high crystalline properties of anatase and cubic phase from $TiO_2$ and $Cu_2O$, respectively. From asymmetric current-voltage profile, it was noticeable that a heterojunction was well formed for charge transport from $Cu_2O$ to $TiO_2$ film resulting from the enhanced charge separation yield. In addition, increased photocurrent of 0.19 $mA/cm^2$ (versus 0.08 $mA/cm^2$ under dark condition) was obtained at -0.35 V from the heterojunction structure in the 0.5M $Na_2SO_4$ solution.

In this paper, the $(SrPb)(CaMg)TiO_3$-xBi_2O_3{\cdot}3TiO_2$ ceramics with paraelectric properties were fabricated by the mixed oxide method. In order to investigate the behavior of charged particles, the characteristics of electrical conduction and thermally stimulated current were measured respectively. As a result on characteristics of the electrical conduction, the leakage current was increased as measuring temperature was increased. At room temperature, the conduction current was divided into the three steps as a function of DC electric field. The first step was Ohmic region due to ionic conduction, below 15[kV/cm]. The second step was showed a saturation which seems to be related to a depolarizing field occuring in field-enforced ferroelectric phase, between 15[kV/cm] and 40[kV/cm]. The third step was attributed to Child's law related to spare charge which injected from electrode, above 40[kV/cm]. Thermally stimulated currents(TSC) spectra with various biasing fields exhibited three distinguished peaks that were denoted as ${\alpha}$, ${\alpha}'$ and ${\beta}$ peak, each of which appeared at nearby -30, 20 and 95[$^{\circ}C$] respectively. It is confirmed that the a peak was due to trap electron trapped in the grainboundary, and ${\alpha}'$ peak that was observed above only 1.5[kV/mm] was attributed to field-enforced ferroelectric polarization. The origin of ${\beta}$ peak was identified as ion migration which caused the degradation.

Gel-type polyacrylonitrile(PAN) polymer electrolytes have been prepared using ethylene carbonate(EC), propylene carbonate(PC) and dimethyl carbonate(DMC) plasticizer, $LiPF_6$ salt and $TiO_2$ ceramic filler. Electrochemical properties, such as electrochemical stability, ionic conductivity and compatibility with lithium metal and mechanical properly of polymer electrolytes were investigated. Charge/discharge performance of lithium secondary battery using these polymer electrolytes were investigated. The maximum load that the polymer electrolyte resists increased about two times as a result of adding $TiO_2$ in the polymer electrolyte containing EC and PC. Polymer electrolyte containing EC, PC and $TiO_2$ also showed ionic conductivity of $2\times10^{-3} S/cm$ at room temperature and electrochemical stability window up to 와 4.5V. Polymer electrolyte containing EC, PC, and $TiO_2$ showed the most stable interfacial resistance of $130\Omega$ during 20 days in the impedance spectra of the cells which were constructed by lithium metals as electrodes. Lithium metal secondary battery which employed $LiCoO_2$ cathode, lithium metal anode and $TiO_2$-dispersed polymer electrolyte showed $90\%$ of charge/discharge efficiency at the 1C rate of discharge.

A study using selective catalytic reduction (SCR) was conducted in conjunction with ammonia as a reducing agent for controlling nitrogen oxides, a typical secondary inducer of fine dust in the atmosphere. For NH₃-SCR experiments, a commercial catalyst of V/W/TiO₂ only and also V/W-Sb/TiO₂ catalyst with Sb were used, and phosphorous durability was confirmed. As a result of NH₃-SCR experiments, it was confirmed that the addition of Sb to V/W/TiO₂ had durability against phosphorous. In addition, the physical and chemical properties were comparatively analyzed through BET, XPS, H₂-TPR, NH₃-TPD, and FT-IR analysis. From the anaylsis results, when Sb was added to V/W/TiO₂ catalyst, P was also added resulting in the formation of SbPO₄ and the generation of VOPO₄ was suppressed. The phosphorous durability was confirmed by maintaining the redox characteristics of the catalyst before P was added.

Extensive efforts have been made in an attempt to utilize photocatalytic properties of $TiO_2$ in visible range. $TiO_2$ and TiO-N thin films were made by the DC reactive magnetron sputtering method at $300^{\circ}C$. Various gases (Ar, $O_2$ and $N_2$) were used and Ti target was impressed by 0.6 kW-5.8 kW power range. The hysteresis phenomenon of the $TiO_2$ thin film as a function of the discharge voltage characteristic was observed to be higher as applied power increases. That of TiO-N thin film was occurred at the 5.8 kW power. The cross section and surface roughness of thin films were observed by FE-SEM and AFM. Average surface roughness of TiO-N thin film was observed as $15.9\AA$ and that of $TiO_2$ as $13.2\AA$. The crystal phases of both $TiO_2$ and TiO-N thin films were found to be anatase structure. The atomic $\beta$-N (396 eV peak in N 1s XPS) was shown in the rutile crystal of TiO-N and was considered acting as the origin of wavelength shift to the visible light.

The microstructure and growth behaviors of anodic oxide layers on titanium were investigated. $TiO_2$ oxide films were prepared by anodizing at constant voltages of 180 and 200V in sulfuric acid electrolyte. The anodic $TiO_2$ layer formed at 200V showed a cell structure with more irregular pore shapes around the interface between the anodic oxide layer and the substrate titanium compared with that formed at 180V. Irregular shape of pores at the initial stage of anodization seemed to be attributed to spark discharge phenomena which heavily occurred during increasing voltages. The thickness of the anodic oxide film increased linearly at a rate of $1.9{\times}10^{ -1}\mu\textrm{m}$/min. The oxide layers formed at 180 and 200V were composed mainly of anatase structure, and the anodizing process could be suggested as one of fabrication methods of photocatalytic $TiO_2$.

Polarization-independent $Ti:LiNbO_3\;2{\times}2$ optical add/drop multiplexer for the 1550nm wavelength region is fabricated. The device consists of two input waveguides, two polarization beam splitters. two polarization conversion/electrooptic tuning waveguide sections, and two output waveguides. The single mode channel waveguides for both TE and TM polarizations are fabricated on a x-cut $Ti:LiNbO_3$substrate by Ti diffusion. Spectral section is based on phase-matched polarization conversion due to shear strain induced by a thick $SiO_2$ grating overlay film. An applied voltage tunes the device by changing the waveguide birefringence, hence the optical wavelength at which most efficient polarization conversion occurs. Tuning rate of 0.094nm/V with a maximum range of 17nm has been obtained. The nearest side-lobe is about 8.2dB. The FWHM is 3.72nm.

$Pb(Fe_{0.5}Nb_{0.5}O_3(PFN)$ thin films were prepared by rf magnetron co-sputtering method on $SiO_2/Si$, ITO/glass, and $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrates and post-annealed at the $N_2$ atmosphere by RTA(rapid thermal annerling). The degree of crystallinity of PFN films was identified on various substrates. Electrical properties of PFN films was characterized for $Pt/PFN/Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ structure. The composition of PFN films was estimated by EPMA (electron probe micro analysis). PFN films would be crystallized better to perovskite phase on ITO/glass substrate than $SiO_2/Si$ substrate. This may be induced by the deformation of Pb deficient pyrochlore phase due to Pb diffusion into $SiO_2/Si$ substrate. PFN films on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrate. PFN films with 5-10% Pb excess were crystallized to perovskite phase from $500^{\circ}C$ temperature. In summary, we show that Pb composition and annealing temperature were critically influenced on crystallinity to perovskite phase. When PFN film with 17% Pb excess was annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ at the $N_2$ atmosphere for 300kV/cm and 88. Its remnant polarization coercive field $2.0 MC/cm^2$ and 144kV/cm, respectively.
