[ $ZnCr_2O_4$ ]를 모물질로 하고 MgO, $TiO_2$를 몰비로 2:1, 4:1, 6:1, 및 8:1이 되게 정량적으로 조합한 후, 조사하였다. $ZnCr_2O_4$-MgO와 $ZnCr_2O_4-TiO_2$를 X-선 분석한 결과 Spinel 결정구조를 형성하였으며, 또한 SEM과 EDX 분석결과 각각 $Li_2CrO_4$와 $Li_3VO_4$의 형성으로 인하여 저항 특성이 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다. $ZnCr_2O_4-MgO$, $ZnCr_2O_4-TiO_2$에서 MgO의 양이 증가할수록 저항값은 약간 감소하는 반면, $TiO_2$의 양이 증가할수록 저항값이 급격히 증가하는 특성을 나타내었고, 감습 특성에서도 M??보다 TiO2가 더 높게 나타내었다. 습에 따른 복원 특성의 경우 $700^{\circ}C$에서 소결한 ($ZnCr_2O_4:MgO=4:1$)과 ($ZnCr_2O_4:TiO_2=6:1$) 조성의 센서가 가장 양호하였다.

In order to improve the photoluminescent properties and crystallinity, Zn$_2$SiO$_4$:Mn, M(M=Cr, Ti) phosphors were synthesized by the sol-gel method. The willemite single phase was obtained at 110$0^{\circ}C$, which is lower temperature than that of the conventional solid-state reaction (130$0^{\circ}C$). The characteristics of fired samples were obtained by a 147 nm excitation source under VUV (Vacuum Ultraviolet). To investigation the effect of co-dopant, the content of Mn and the ratio of $H_2O$ to TEOS was fixed as 2 ㏖% and 36. 1, respectively. The highest emission intensity was obtained when the concentration of Cr and Ti was 0.1 ㏖% relative to Zn$_2$SiO$_4$:Mn. While the emission intensity decrease continuously the decay time improved as increased the Cr concentration. In the case of Ti added samples, however, the emission intensity increase up to 2 ㏖％ concentration.

$ZnAl_{1-x}\;Cr_xO_4$ solid solutions were synthesized as pink pigments with and without mineralizer. The pigments were examined to optimize color development conditions of temperature and $Cr_2O_3$ contents. The characteristics of synthesized pigments were analyzed by XRD, XPS, FT-IR and UV-vis spectrophotometer. While samples without mineralizer fired at $1300^{\circ}C$, showed $ZnAl_2O_4$ and $ZnCr_2O_4$ spinel in XRD analysis. While samples with mineralizer resulted in $ZnAl_2O_4$. As a results, the pigments show pink color and most effective pink color was obtained at X=0.15 and $1250^{\circ}C$ when mineralizer was used. The chromatic coordinates are $L^*$ 58.61 $a^*$ 24.48, and $b^*$ 9.60.

We aimed to examine the co-doping effects of 1/6 mol% $Mn_3O_4$ and 1/4 mol% $Cr_2O_3$ (Mn:Cr = 1:1) on the reaction, microstructure, and electrical properties, such as the bulk defects and grain boundary properties, of ZnO-$Bi_2O_3-Sb_2O_3$ (ZBS; Sb/Bi = 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0) varistors. The sintering and electrical properties of Mn,Cr-doped ZBS, ZBS(MnCr) varistors were controlled using the Sb/Bi ratio. Pyrochlore ($Zn_2Bi_3Sb_3O_{14}$), ${\alpha}$-spinel ($Zn_7Sb_2O_{12}$), and ${\delta}-Bi_2O_3$ (also ${\beta}-Bi_2O_3$ at Sb/Bi ${\leq}$ 1.0) were detected for all of the systems. Mn and Cr are involved in the development of each phase. Pyrochlore was decomposed and promoted densification at lower temperature on heating in Sb/Bi = 1.0 system by Mn rather than Cr doping. A more homogeneous microstructure was obtained in all systems affected by ${\alpha}$-spinel. In ZBS(MnCr), the varistor characteristics were improved dramatically (non-linear coefficient, ${\alpha}$ = 40~78), and seemed to form ${V_o}^{\cdot}$(0.33 eV) as a dominant defect. From impedance and modulus spectroscopy, the grain boundaries can be seen to have divided into two types, i.e. one is tentatively assigned to ZnO/$Bi_2O_3$ (Mn,Cr)/ZnO (0.64~1.1 eV) and the other is assigned to the ZnO/ZnO (1.0~1.3 eV) homojunction.

[ $AB_2X_4$ ](A, B=Transition Metal, X=O, S, Se) are cubic spinel normal ferrimagnets, in which M ions occupy the tetrahedral sites and Cr ions occupy the octahedral sites. Recently, they have been investigated for behaviour of B site ions and A-B interaction. Polycrystalline $[Co_{0.9}Zn_{0.1}]_A[Cr_{1.98}{^{57}Fe_{0.02}}]_BO_4$ compound was prepared by wet-chemical process. The ferrimagnetic transition was observed around 90K. $M\"{o}ssbauer$ absorption spectra at 4.2K show that the well-developed two sextets are superposed with small difference in hyperfine fields($H_{hf}$). The hyperfine fields of $CoCr_{1.98}{^{57}Fe_{0.02}}O_4$ and $Co_{0.9}Zn_{0.1}Cr_{1.98}{^{57}Fe_{0.02}}O_4$ were determined to be 488, 478 kOe and 486, 468 kOe, respectively. We notice that the one of the magnetic hyperfine field values changes with Zn ion substitution. These results suggest the incommensurate states and spin-reorientation temperature($T_S=18K$) changes with Zn ions substitution below spin-reorientation temperature($T_S=28K$) of $CoCr_{1.98}{^{57}Fe_{0.02}}O_4$

The $ZnGa_2O_4$:Cr phosphor was synthesized through solid-state reactions at the various molar ratio of Cr from 0.002 % to 0.01 %. The XRD patterns show that the Cr-doped $ZnGa_2O_4$ has a (311) main peak and a spinel phase. Also the emission wavelength shills from 510 to 705 nm in comparison with $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn when Cr is doped in $ZnGa_2O_4$. These results indicate that $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphors hold promise for potential applications in field-emission display devices with high brightness operating in full color regions.

The main objective of the present investigation is to improve the photoluminescent performance of existing $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn$ phosphors by introducing a new co-dopant. The co-doping effect of Mg and/or Cr upon emission intensity and decay time was studied in the present investigation. The co-dopants incorporated into the $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn$ phosphors are believed to alter the internal energy state so that the change in emission intensity and decay time can be expected. Both Mg and Cr ions have a favourable influence on photoluminescence prpperties, for example, the Mg ion enhances the intensity of manganese green emission and the Cr ion shortens the decay time. The enhancement in emission intensity of $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn,\;Mg$ phosphors was interpreted by taking into account the result from the DV-X${\alpha}$ embedded cluster calculation. On the other hand, the energy transfer between Mn and Cr ions was found to be responsible for the shortening of decay time in$Zn_2SiO_4:Mn,\;Cr$ phosphors.

$ZnGa_2O_4$ powder were prepared by combustion method and $Mn^{2+}$ ions, a green luminescence activator, and $Cr^{3+}$ ions, a red luminescence activator were separately doped into $ZnGa_2O_4$. The characteristics of the synthesized nano powder were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and photoluminescence (PL). The various $ZnGa_2O_4$ peaks, with the (311) main peak, appeared at all sintering temperature XRD patterns. The PL specctrums of $ZnGa_2O_4$ powder showed main peak of 425 nm, and maximum intensity at the sintering temperature of $1200^{\circ}C$. SEM images shown that nano sized particles(about 200 nm) were of spherical shape. The characteristics of $ZnGa_2O_4$ containing 0.004 mol $Mn^{2+}$(505 nm, green) and $ZnGa_2O_4$ containg 0.002 mol $Cr^{3+}$ (696 nm, red) were shown to be the best.
