유도결합플라즈마를 적용한 화학기상증착법으로 $TiO_2$ 박막을 얻었다. 박막의 특성 조절을 위해 수소유량을 변화시켰다. 수소 유량을 증가시킴에 따라 박막의 표면 형상, 결정성, 결정 구조 및 광촉매 특성이 변하였다. 고밀도 플라즈마가 반응 기체의 분해를 촉진함으로써 외부 가열없이 아나타제 $TiO_2$가 만들어졌다. 적절한 양의 수소를 첨가했을 때, 루타일 상으로 상전이가 발생하였다. 화학기상증착법에서 루타일 $TiO_2$는 일반적으로 900 K 이상의 고온에서 형성되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 수소의 역할을 고찰하기 위해 랭뮤어 탐 침법과 발광 분광기를 이용한 플라즈마 진단을 수행하였다.

Nanoporous $TiO_2$ films are commonly used as working electrodes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). So far, there have been attempts to synthesize films with various $TiO_2$ nanostructures to increase the power-conversion efficiency. In this work, vertically aligned rutile $TiO_2$ nanorods were grown on fluorinated tin oxide (FTO) glass by hydrothermal synthesis, followed by deposition of an anatase $TiO_2$ film. This new method of anatase $TiO_2$ growth avoided the use of a seed layer that is usually required in hydrothermal synthesis of $TiO_2$ electrodes. The dense anatase $TiO_2$ layer was designed to behave as the electron-generating layer, while the less dense rutile nanorods acted as electron-transfer pathwaysto the FTO glass. In order to facilitate the electron transfer, the rutile phase nanorods were treated with a $TiCl_4$ solution so that the nanorods were coated with the anatase $TiO_2$ film after heat treatment. Compared to the electrode consisting of only rutile $TiO_2$, the power-conversion efficiency of the rutile-anatase hybrid $TiO_2$ electrode was found to be much higher. The total thickness of the rutile-anatase hybrid $TiO_2$ structures were around $4.5-5.0{\mu}m$, and the highest power efficiency of the cell assembled with the structured $TiO_2$ electrode was around 3.94%.

The chlorination kinetics of synthetic rutile prepared by selective chlorination of ilmenite with Cl₂ and CO gas mixture were studied in a fluidized bed. Th e effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, and the ratio of Cl₂ and CO partial pressure ($p_{Cl_2}/p_{CO}$) on the conversion rate of TiCl₄ were investigated. The conversion rate of TiC₄ was low under the high $p_{Cl_2}/p_{CO}$ conditions. Moreover, it was considered that the partial pressure of CO gas was more effective than that of Cl₂ gas when comparing the stoichiometric conversion rate and experimental results of high CO partial pressure. Considering the porous structure of particles, the rate controlling step of the chlorination of synthetic rutile was determined to be chemical reaction and the activation energy was calculated as 53.77 kJ/mol.

We investigated the phase noise of an oscillator with a extremely high-Q resonator used as the resonant element. A TE$_{011}$ mode rutile-loaded resonator with high-temperature superconductive (HTS) $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}$(YBCO) films used as the endplates is prepared for this purpose. At 23.5 K, the unloaded Q and the loaded Q are 863000 and 180000, respectively. The phase noise of -104.8 dBc/Hz at 1 KHz offset was observed for the oscillator having a resonator with $Q_{L}$ =180000 at the $TE_{01\delta$ mode resonant frequency of 8.545 GHz at 23.5 K Such oscillators with very low phase noise are expected to be used for building up communication systems capable of efficient use of the frequency band and high-speed data transmission as well as for Doppler radars. Frequency tuning could be realized for the resonator by using a piezoactuator Applicability of the tunable rutile resonator for fabricating tunable oscillators of high performances is discussed.

A comparison of photo-efficiency on dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) assembled by using $TiO_2$ materials with different structures and crystallite sizes were investigated in this study. The size and structure of $TiO_2$ have been controlled by pHs and calcination temperatures using solvothermal and sol-gel methods, respectively. Six types of $TiO_2$ samples are obtained; 8.9, 12.8, and 20.2 nm sized $TiO_2$ particles, and the other types using sol-gel method were anatase-rutile mixtures on the structure. The highest photo-efficiency which is remarkable result reached to 8.6% over DSC assembled by anatase $TiO_2$ with 20.2 nm particle size.

In this study photoadsorption propreties of Ag ion in AgNO$_3$ solution by TiO$_2$nanopowder synthesized by homogeneous precipitation process at low temperature were investigated. It was found that the photocatalytic redliction in AgNO$_3$solution was occurred by TiO$_2$nanopowder even under th sun light irradiation, although the reduction of Ag ions was slow with th small adsorption of 9.32 ppm. Notably the Ag adsorption was promoted in th dark condition probably owing to the chestnut bur shape of TiO$_2$ nanopowder itself. In the application of UV the Ag ions were completely adsorbed within 120 min, showing more significant photocatalytic reaction. The measured adsorption reaction rate and adsorption equilibrium rate constants were 0.0004 g/min and 1494.20(120 $m^2$/g), respectively.

The TiO$_2$ coating solutions were synthesized with different concentrations (T1-0.7N, T2-2.0N) of hydrochloric acid used as catalyst. and TiO$_2$ thin films were prepared by sol-gel dip coating. Their structural and optical properties were examined as a function of calcination temperature. XRD results showed that T1 thin films calcined at 400~80$0^{\circ}C$ had the anatase phase, while those calcined at 100$0^{\circ}C$ had the rutile phase. T2 thin films calcined at 40$0^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ had the anatase phase, with the rutile phase for calcination at 80$0^{\circ}C$. Crystallinity of T2 thin films was superior to that of T1 thin films. The crystallite size of TiO$_2$ thin films increased with increasing calcination temperature, and the crystallite size of anatase phase in T2 thin films was larger than that in T1 thin films, but the crystallite size of rutile phase in T2 thin films was smaller. The surface morphology of the films showed that the films were formed more densely in the rutile phase than in the anatase phase, this phenomenon appeared conspicuously in T2 thin films. The transmittance of the samples with thin films on quartz glass calcined at 100$0^{\circ}C$ was significantly reduced at wavelength range about 300-700 nm due to the increased absorption originating from the change of crystallite phase and composition of the films and the scattering effect originating from increasing crystallite size. The refractive index of TiO$_2$ thin films increased, and hence the film thickness as well as the porosity of TiO$_2$ thin films decreased with increasing calcination temperature. Furthermore, the refractive index of T2 thin films was higher than T1 thin films, and porosity of T2 films was lower.

결정화된 아나타이즈와 루타일 구조의 $TiO_2$ 박막을 유도결합플라즈마 화학기상증착법 (ICP-CVD)을 이용하여 증착하였다. 기판 온도는 플라즈마에 의한 가열에 의하여 최대 450K까지 증가하였다. 일반적인 플라즈마 화학기상증착법 (PE-CVD)으로 결정화된 $TiO_2$ 박막을 얻기 위해서는 최소 573K까지 가열해야 하기 때문에, 현 실험에서의 $TiO_2$ 박막은 플라즈마 가열에 의한 것이 아니라 높은 플라즈마 밀도에 의하여 증착된 것이다. 증착속도는 외부가열이 없는 상태에서 $5{\sim}50nm$/min이 얻어졌다. ICP 파워 (RF power)는 결정화도, 루타일상의 증착, 증착속도 그리고 광전류 특성에 영향을 끼쳤다.
