Porous alumina specimens with 80~92% relative densities were prepared from ultrasonic spray pyrolyzed alumina Powders by sintering at $1600^{\circ}$~ $1700^{\circ}C$. The exaggerated grain growth appeared to high sintering temperature and long soaking time. The microstructural development during sintering was investigated using image analysis. In the study of grain growth kinetics for sintering for spray prolyzed alumina powder, the activation energy for normal grain growth was 386.77 kJ/mol.

The spherical $SiO_2$ powders were synthesized by the scaled-up ultrasonic pyrolysis (USP). The aqueous $SiO_2$ sol, which contained 20~30 nm $SiO_2$ particles, was used as a precursor for the scaled-up USP. The effects of the USP operating conditions and precursor conditions were systematically investigated, including reaction temperature, gas flow rate, and the concentration of $SiO_2$ sol on the morphologies of synthesized $SiO_2$ particles. the synthesized $SiO_2$ particle showed a pseudo-crystal phase, spherical morphology, and a smooth surface. The size of the spherical $SiO_2$ particle decreased as both reaction temperature increased and precursor concentration decreased. In addition, the synthesized $SiO_2$ particle size was increased by increasing the gas flow rate. Lastly, the scaled-up USP was compared with the lab-scale USP based on the same process conditions. Due to a short retention time in the reaction tube during the USP process, the $SiO_2$ particle synthesized via the lab-scale USP showed a larger particle size.

The transparent conducting tin oxide films were deposited on g1ass substrates by the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. Examined were effects of deposition parameters on the electrical resistance, optical transmittance, crystal structure, and thickness of tin oxide films. As both the deposition time and concentration of tin(IV) chloride increase, the deposited tin oxide films exhibited the decrease of electrical resistance and optical transmittance in the visible and near infrared region. With increasing heat-treatment temperature in air, the deposited tin oxide films showed the enhanced electrical resistance and optical transmittance. This study suggests that the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis may be a promising deposition technique effectively to prepare transparent conducting films of good quality in a single step.

Nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. The effect of polymeric precursor and lithium carbonate flux on the morphology and luminescence characteristics of nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles was investigated. When using the spray solution containing both the polymeric precursor and the flux, the $Y_2O_3:Eu$ particles with spherical shape and micron size were turned into nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles during the post-treatment at high temperature. The mean size of $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles was affected by the contents of polymeric precursors and lithium carbonate flux, and preparation temperature. The as-prepared particles by spray pyrolysis at high temperature from solution containing high contents of polymeric precursors had good photoluminescence intensity under vacuum ultraviolet after post-treatment above $1,000^{\circ}C$. The prepared nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles had comparable photoluminescence intensity under vacuum ultraviolet light with that of the commercial $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles prepared by solid state reaction method.

We developed SAW gas sensor for monitoring SOx gas with high sensitivity. It was fabricated as a microsensor for detecting SOx gas by depositing sensing material on SAW device. As a detecting layer material, CdS was selected. Deposition of CdS in the form of thin films was carried out by the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method using ultrasonic spray nozzle. Thin films with the uniform and large surface area for sensors were deposited. The stable pyrolysis environment provided by uniform and fine droplets formed by spray nozzle made it possible to obtain thin films with excellent quality. The minimum grain size of the CdS thin films was about 50 nm when deposited at $300^{\circ}C$. SAW gas sensors showed reasonable sensitivity and reproducibility. Further studies are required to investigate the interference of other gases to SOx gas detection.

Fine $PbTiO_3$ Particles were synthesized from the $Pb(NO_3)_2$and $TiO(NO_3)_2$ solution by the spray pyrolysis method using the ultrasonic vibrator as a mist generator. The obtained particles were characterized. The mechanisms of particle formation were discussed in comparison with those if other particles, such as $BaTiO_3$, $ZnO_2$, ZnO ....., in the same spray pyrolysis process.

Influences of the starting salts on the phase and morphology of the Pb(Zr, T)O$_3$powders prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis were studied. The Phases of the Powders Prepared from the combination of metal nitrate(or oxynitrate), acetate(or oxyacetate), and alkoxide were the Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$with or without minor PbTiO$_3$. The pores on the surface of the spherical particles increased with the nitrate content in the starting solution and their formation was thought to result from the decomposition characteristics of metal nitrate. Pb acetate, Zr oxyacetate, Ti oxynitrate, and Ti (isopropoxide+acetylacetonate) was suitable as the starting salts for the preparation of Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$powders by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis in the viewpoint of the phase and morphology of the powders.

Fine powders of the 2212 superconducting phase of bismuth system have been prepared directly from solution using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. The fine superconducting powders produced by pyrolysis were characterized for the size, shape, and crystalline phase by SEM and XRD. The pyrolysis temperature, flow rate of the carrier gas, residence time of the droplets greatly influenced the size, shape, and crystalline phase. The optimum temperature and flow rate of the carrier gas for the preparation of fine powders of the 2212 superconduting phase were found to be 830$^{\circ}C$and 3ι/min, respectively.
