In this study, the opto-electric properties of EL devices with PMN dielectric layer with variation of firing tempereature were investigated. For the PMN dielectric layer process, the paste was prepared by optimization of quantitative mixing of PMN powder, $BaTiO_3$, Glass Frit, $\alpha$-Terpineol and ethyl cellulose. The EL device stack consists of Alumina substrate ($Al_2O_3$), metallic electrode (Au), insulating layer (manufactured PMN paste), phosphor layer (ELPP- 030, ELK) and transparent electrode (ITO), which is well structure as a thick film EL device. The phase transformation properties of PMN dielectric with various firing temperatures of $150^{\circ}C$ to $850^{\circ}C$ was characterized by XRD. Also the opto-electric properties of EL devices with different firing temperature were investigated by LCR meter and spectrometer. We found the best opto-electric property was obtained at the condition of $550^{\circ}C$ firing which is 3432.96 $cd/m^2$ at 1948.3 pF Capacitance, 40 kHz Frequency, 40% Duty, Vth+330 V voltage.

PZT(80/20) powder was prepared by a sol-gel method and PZT thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing method on the alumina substrates. The coating and drying procedure was repeated 4 times. And then the PZT(20/80) precursor solution was spin-coated on the multilayered thick films. A concentration of a coating solution was 0.5 mol/L and the number of coating was repeated from 0 to 6. The porosity of the thick films was decreased with increasing the number of coatings and the PZT thick films with 6-times coated showed the dense microstructure and thickness of about 60-65 ${\mu}m$. All PZT thick films showed the typical XRD patterns of a typical perovskite polycrystalline structure. The relative dielectric constant and the dielectric loss of the PZT-6 thick film were 275 and 3.5, respectively. And the PZT-6 film shows the remanent polarization of 22.1 $C/cm^2$ and coercive field of 13.7 kV/cm.

Various solar hybrid energy conversion processes, which have both the advantages of renewable energy sources and fossil energy sources, have been developed in the world because stable and predictable energy supplies, such as electricity and natural gas, are necessary for modern societies. In particular, a solar hybrid energy conversion process based on a dual fluidized bed process concept has been expected as the promising solution for sustainable energy supply via thermochemical conversions, such as pyrolysis, combustion, gasification, and so on, because solar thermal energy could be captured and stored in fluidized bed materials. Therefore, the attrition and heat transfer characteristics of silicon carbide and alumina particles used for fluidized bed materials for the solar hybrid energy conversion process were studied in an ASTM D5757 reactor and a bubbling fluidized bed reactor with 0.14m diameter and 2m height. These characteristics of novel fluidized bed materials were compared with those of sand particles which have widely been used as a fluidized bed material in various commercial fluidized bed reactors. The attrition resistances of silicon carbide and alumina particles were higher than those of sand particles while the average values of heat transfer coefficient in the bubbling fluidized bed reactor were in the range of 125 ~ 152 W m^-2K^-1.

(Ba,Sr,Ca)$TiO_3$ powders, which were prepared by sol-gel method using a solution of Ba-, Sr- and Ca-acetate and Ti iso-propoxide, were mixed with organic vehicle and the BSCT thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing techniques on high purity alumina substrates. The structural and dielectirc properties were investigated for various $Dy_2O_3$ doping contents. As a result of thermal analysis, the exothermic peak was observed at around 670^{\circ}C $ due to the formation of the polycrystalline perovskite phase. All BSCT thick films, sintered at $1420^{\circ}C$ for 2h, showed the typical XRD patterns of perovskite polycrystalline structure and no pyrochlore phase was observed. The average grain size of the specimens decreased with increasing amount of $Dy_2O_3$. The average grain size and thickness of the BSCT specimens doped with 0.1 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ were approximately $1.9{\mu}m$ and $70{\mu}m$, respectively. The relative dielectric constant decreased and dielectric loss increased with increasing amount of $Dy_2O_3$, the values of the BSCT thick films doped with 0.1 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ were 3697 and 0.4% at 1 kHz, respectively. The leakage current densities in all BSCT thick films were less than $10^{-9}A/cm^2$ at the applied electric field range of 0-20 kV/cm.

광통신에는 광신호의 전송과 광신호 처리에 처리 과정에서 광 손실을 수반하므로 각 요소별로 광신호 증폭이 반드시 필요하다. 또한 광통신망의 완전 광화를 위해서는 제조 공정이 간단하여 가격이 저렴하고, 높은 신뢰성과 높은 증폭 효율을 가지면서 다른 부품과의 집적화가 가능한 광도파로형 광증폭기가 요구되고 있다 그러나 실리카는 광통신 파장대인 1.55$\mu\textrm{m}$대역의 증폭이 가능한 Er 이온에 대한 용해도가 50ppm 이하로 낮아 lmol% 이상 고농도로 Er 이온을 첨가하여 높은 증폭 효율을 얻는데 한계를 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Er 이온에 대하여 높은 용해 특성을 가지고 있어 고농도 Er 이온 도핑이 가능한 알루미나에 Er을 1-2 mol% 첨가하여 광발광 특성을 조사하였다. Er이 첨가된 알루미나 나노 졸은 Al(NO$_3$)$_3$ㆍ9$H_2O$와 Er(NO$_3$)$_3$.5$H_2O$가 일정 양 용해된 수용액에 NH$_4$OH를 가하여 침전물을 얻고 여과 및 수세하여 졸 입자의 함량이 약 5wt%가 되게 이온교환수와 해교제인 초산을 소량 가하여 10$0^{\circ}C$에서 약 50시간 열처리하는 방법으로 제조하였다. Er이 첨가된 알루미나 코팅막은 Er 이 첨가된 알루미나 나노 졸에 GPS(3-glycidoxypropyltriethoxysilane)를 Al에 대하여 7 mol% 가하여 스핀 코팅법으로 제조하였다. Si 기판에 코팅하고, 상온에서 90$0^{\circ}C$까지 각 1시간 열처리한 코팅막의 광 발광 특성은 Er 이온의 첨가량과 열처리로 변화된 알루미나 코팅막의 결정상과 연계하여 논의 될 것이다. X-선 회절법으로 분석한 알루미나 코팅막의 온도에 따른 결정상은 boehmite 상에서 약 50$0^{\circ}C$이후에 ${\gamma}$-Al$_2$O$_3$로 전이하고 있다.

The rocket grade hydrogen peroxide has been widely used as a monopropellant in propulsion systems. Conventional decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, however, requires preheating before feeding into the reactor. In the present paper, we described an experimental study of a catalytic reactor bed that employs multiple catalysts to enhance the low temperature response in the vicinity of the reactor inlet. $K_2MnO_4$ is experimentally chose as the inlet catalyst from the candidates of silver, platinum, $La_{0.8}Sr_{0.2}CoO_3(LSC),\;and\;K_2MnO_4$. We developed new synthesis and coating method using modified alumina sol-gel method to strengthen the adhesion of $K_2MnO_4$ catalyst. from the vaporizer experiment with hydrogen peroxide at room temperature, satisfactory vaporizing performance was measured.

In this study, mesoporous tin oxide was synthesized by sol-gel method using $C_{16}TMABr$ surfactant as a template in a basic condition. The optimum conditions for the synthesis of mesoporous $SnO_2$ were investigated and the obtained samples were characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption and TEM analysis. A mesoporous and nanostructured $SnO_2$ gas sensor with Au electrode and Pt heater has been fabricated on alumina substrate as one unit via a screen printing process. Sensing abilities of fabricated sensors were examined for CO and $CH_4$ gases, respectively, at $350^{\circ}C$ in the concentration range of 1~10,000 ppm. Influence of loading amount of palladium impregnated on $SnO_2$ was also tested in detection of those gases. High sensitivity to detecting gases and the fast response speed with stability were obtained with the mesoporous tin oxide sensor as compared to a non-porous one under the same detection conditions.

The rocket grade hydrogen peroxide has been widely used as a monopropellant in propulsion systems. In the present paper, we described an experimental study of a catalytic reactor that employs two stage catalyst beds to enhance the low temperature performance of the reactor inlet. $K_2MnO_4$ was chosen as the catalyst for the initial stage of the reactor bed for its superior behavior in the low temperature regime. Alumina sol-gel method was successfully applied for coating $K_2MnO_4$ on a reactor bed of cordierite monolith. LSC was used for the catalyst of the second stage of the reactor. The reactor with combined catalyst beds was built and tested to exhibit superior performance in low temperature regime and high decomposition efficiency.

The BSCT thick films doped with 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ were fabricated by the screen-printing techniques on the alumina substrates and the structural and dielectric properties were investigated with variation of $Dy_2O_3$ doping contents. All BSCT thick films were sintered at $1420^{\circ}C$, for 2hr. In the TG-DTA analysis, the formation of the polycrystalline perovskite phase was observed at around $670 ^{\circ}C$. In the XRD analysis, all BSCT thick films showed the cubic perovskite structure. The average thickness of BSCT thick films was approximately $65{\mu}m$. The Curie temperature decreased with increasing $Dy_2O_3$ amount. The relative dielectric constant and dielectric loss of BSCT thick films doped with $Dy_2O_3$ 0.1 mol% were 6267 and 2.6 %, respectively.
