NOx sensing properties of $Ba_2WO_5$ were investigated by varying the sintering temperature in an effort to study the effects of the neck-width on gas sensitivity. $Ba_2WO_5$ sintered at $800^{\circ}C$, which exhibits neck-controlled conduction provides highest sensitivity of 47 and 29 at $500^{\circ}C$ to NO and $NO_2$, respectively. The samples sintered beyond $800^{\circ}C$ show sintering temperature-independent gas sensitivity. This may be because the grain boundary control is dominant at lower sintering temperatures and open neck control is dominant at higher sintering temperatures than $800{\circ}C$. The NOx sensing mechanism of $Ba_2WO_5$ was briefly discussed.

The effects of the growth temperature on the structural, optical, and morphological properties of BaWO₄:Sm³⁺ phosphor thin films were investigated. The BaWO₄:Sm³⁺ thin films were grown on quartz substrates at several growth temperatures by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering. All the thin films crystallized in a tetragonal structure with a main BaWO₄ (112) diffraction peak. The 830 nm-thick BaWO₄:Sm³⁺ thin films grown at 300 ℃ exhibited numerous polygon-shaped particles. The excitation spectra of BaWO₄:Sm³⁺ thin films consisted of a broad excitation band in the 200-270 nm with a maximum at 236 nm due to the O^2--Sm³⁺ charge transfer and two small bands peaked at 402 and 463 nm, respectively. Under 236 nm excitation, the BaWO₄:Sm³⁺ thin films showed an intense red emission peak at 641 nm due to the ⁴G_5/2→⁶H_9/2 transition of Sm³⁺, indicating that the Sm³⁺ ions occupied sites of non-inversion symmetry in the BaWO₄ host lattice. The highest emission intensity was observed for the thin film grown at 300 ℃, with a 51.8% transmittance and 5.09 eV bandgap. The average optical transmittance in the wavelength range of 500-1100 nm was increased from 53.2% at 200 ℃ to 60.8% after growing at 400 ℃. These results suggest that 300 ℃ is the optimum temperature for growing redemitting BaWO₄:Sm³⁺ thin films.

The sintering behavior of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ with the addition of one and three weight % of $CuWO_4$ as a liquid phase sintering aid is studied. Samples are sintered in the temperature range $900-1250^{\circ}C$ and the effect of $CuWO_4$ addition on density, microstructure, phase composition and magnetic properties is examined. Compared to $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ with no sintering aid addition, addition of 1 wt % $CuWO_4$ retards densification. Addition of 3 wt % $CuWO_4$ promotes densification at lower sintering temperatures but retards densification at temperatures > $1050^{\circ}C$. Three wt % $CuWO_4$ addition induces the formation of $BaWO_4$ and $Ba_3WFe_2O_9$ secondary phases at temperatures ${\geq}1100^{\circ}C$. Addition of $CuWO_4$ causes a decrease in saturation magnetization, remanent magnetization and coercivity.

A novel microwave dielectric composite material for ultra-low temperature co-fired ceramics (ULTCC) with (1-x)BaWO₄-xBaV₂O₆ (x=0.54~0.85) composition was prepared by firing a mixture of BaWO₄ and BaV₂O₆. Shrinkage tests showed that the ceramic composite begins to densify at a temperature as low as 550℃ and can be sintered at 650℃ with 98% of relative density under the influence of BaV₂O₆. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that BaWO₄ and BaV₂O₆ coexisted and no secondary phase was detected in the sintered bodies, implying good chemical compatibility between the two phases. Near-zero temperature coefficients of the resonant frequency (𝛕_f) could be achieved by controlling the relative content of the two phases, due to their positive and negative 𝛕_f values, respectively. With increasing BaV₂O₆ (x from 0.53 to 0.85), the 𝛕_f value of the composites increased from -7.54 to 14.49 ppm/℃, ε_r increased from 10.08 to 11.17 and the quality factor (Q×f value) decreased from 47,661 to 37,131 GHz. The best microwave dielectric properties were obtained for x=0.6 samples with ε_r=10.4, Q×f=44,090 GHz, and 𝛕_f=-2.38 ppm/℃. Chemical compatibility experiments showed the developed composites are compatible with aluminum electrode during co-firing process.

Dy³⁺- and Eu³⁺-codoped BaWO₄ phosphors for white light-emitting diode were synthesized with different activator ions via a solid-state reaction process. The structural, morphological, and optical properties of the BaWO₄:Dy³⁺,Eu³⁺ phosphors were investigated as a function of Eu³⁺ concentration at a fixed concentration of Dy³⁺ ions. XRD patterns exhibited that all the synthesized phosphors had a tetragonal system, irrespective of the concentrations of Dy³⁺ and Eu³⁺ ions. The excitation spectra of the synthesized phosphors were composed of three intense bands centered at 251, 355, and 393 nm and several weak peaks. For the BaWO₄:Dy³⁺,Eu³⁺ phosphors synthesized with 1 mol% of Eu³⁺, the emission spectra under ultraviolet excitation at 393 nm showed two strong blue and yellow bands at 485 and 577 nm corresponding to the ⁴F_9/2⁶H_15/2 and ⁴F_9/2⁶H_13/2 transitions of Dy³⁺ ions, respectively and several weak bands in the range of 600-700 nm resulting from the 4f transitions of Eu³⁺ ions. As the concentration of Eu³⁺ ions increased, intensities of the blue and yellow emission bands gradually decreased while those of the red emissions increased rapidly and the energy transfer efficiency from Dy³⁺ to Eu³⁺ ions was 95.3% at 20 mol% of Eu³⁺. The optimum white light emission with x=0.363, y=0.357 CIE 1931 chromaticity coordinates was obtained for the sample doped with 5 mol% Dy³⁺ and 1 mol% of Eu³⁺.

We investigated the phase evolution, microstructure, and microwave dielectric properties of Na- and Zr-doped $Ba(Mg_{0.5}W_{0.5})O_3$ [i.e., ($Ba_{1-2x}Na_{2x})(Mg_{0.5-x}Zr_xW_{0.5})O_3$] ceramics. $BaWO_4$ as a secondary phase was observed in all compositions, and it increased as the dopant concentration increased. All specimens revealed a dense microstructure. For the composition of x=0.01, polyhedral grains were observed. As the dopant concentration increased, the densification and the grain growth were promoted by a liquid phase. The quality factor($Q{\times}f_0$) decreased remarkably, whereas the dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) tended to decrease as the dopant concentration increased. The dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency of the composition of x=0.01 sintered at $1,700^{\circ}C$ for 1 h were 18.6, 216,275 GHz, and $-22.0ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively.

In this study, composites containing undoped and barium-doped Bi₂WO₆:Ba²⁺were investigated for their shielding against diagnostic X-ray. At first, Bi₂WO₆ and barium-doped Bi₂WO₆ were synthesized with different weight percentages of barium oxide through a hydrothermal process. The as-synthesized nanostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and Raman spectroscopy (RS). After that, some shields were generated with undoped and barium-doped Bi₂WO₆:Ba²⁺ nanostructure particles incorporated into polyvinyl chloride (PVC) polymer with different thicknesses and 15% weight of the nanostructure. Finally, the prepared samples were exposed to an X-ray tube at 40, 80, and 120 kV voltages, 10 mAs and, 44.5 cm SID (i.e. the distance from the X-ray beam source to the specimen). Linear and mass attenuation coefficients were also calculated for different samples. The results indicated that, among the samples, the one with 7.5 mmol barium-doped Bi₂WO₆ had the most attenuation at the voltage of 40kV, and the attenuation coefficients would increase with an increase in the amount of barium. The samples with 15 and 17.5 mmol barium-doped Bi₂WO₆ had higher attenuation than the others at 80 and 120 kV. Moreover, the half-value layer (HVL), tenth-value layer (TVL) and 0.25 mm lead equivalent thickness were calculated for all the samples. The lowest HVL value was for the sample with 7.5 mmol barium-doped Bi₂WO₆. As the result clearly show, an increment in the barium-doping content leads to a decrease in both HVL and TVL. In every three voltages, 0.25 mm lead equivalent thickness of the barium-doped composites (7.5 mmol and 15 mmol) had less than the other composites. The lowest value of 0.25 mm lead equivalent thickness was 7.5 barium-doped in 40 kV voltage and 15 mmol barium-doped in 80 kV and 120 kV voltages. These results were obtained only for 15% weight of the nanostructure.

Green phosphors $K_2BaW_2O_8:Tb^{3+}$(1.0 mol%) were synthesized by solid state reaction method. Differential thermal analysis was applied to trace the reaction processes. Three endothermic values of 95, 706, and $1055^{\circ}C$ correspond to the loss of absorbed water, the release of carbon dioxide, and the beginning of the melting point, respectively. The phase purity of the powders was examined using powder X-ray diffraction(XRD). Two strong excitation bands in the wavelength region of 200-310 nm were found to be due to the ${WO_4}^{2-}$ exciton transition and the 4f-5d transition of $Tb^{3+}$ in $K_2BaW_2O_8$. The excitation spectrum presents several lines in the range of 310-380 nm; these are assigned to the 4f-4f transitions of the $Tb^{3+}$ ion. The strong emission line at around 550 nm, due to the $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_5$ transition, is observed together with weak lines of the $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_J$(J = 3, 4, and 6) transitions. A broad emission band peaking at 530 nm is observed at 10 K, while it disappears at room temperature. The decay times of $Tb^{3+}$ $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_5$ emission are estimated to be 4.8 and 1.4 ms, respectively, at 10 and 295 K; those of the ${WO_4}^{2-}$ exciton emissions are 22 and 0.92 ${\mu}s$ at 10 and 200 K, respectively.

5 mol% $BaWO_4$를 첨가시켜 합성한 Ba$(Mg_{1/3}Ta_{2/3})O_3$를 이용하여 비방사유전세선로에 삽입되는 세라믹스 공진기를 제자하고 기존의 $MgTiO_3-CaTiO_3$계 세라믹스 공진기와 공진특성을 비교하여 그 특성을 고찰하였다. 그 결과 BMT 세라믹스는 기존의 $MgTiO_3-CaTiO_3$계 세라믹스보다 품질계수가 2배 이상 크게 높게 측정되었고, 측정 사진의 관찰 결과 전파차단성도 우수할 것으로 예상되기 때문에 BMT가 비방사유 전체선로에 삽입되는 유전체 공진기 재료로서 적용될 경우 우수한 공진특성을 발휘할 것으로 판단된다.
