Amorphous $Al_2O_3$ nanotubes have been fabricated by utilizing the ZnO nanowires as template with wet etching method. ZnO nanowires synthesized by thermal evaporation are conformally coated with $Al_2O_3$ by atomic-layer deposition(ALD) method. The $Al_2O_3$-coated ZnO nanowires are of core-shell structure; ZnO core nanowires and $Al_2O_3$ shells. When the $ZnO/Al_2O_3$ core-shell structure is dipped in $H_3PO_4$ solution at $25^{\circ}C$ for a 6 min, the core ZnO materials are completely etched, and only $Al_2O_3$ nanotubes are remained. This nanotube fabrication is technically easier than others, and simply approachable. Transmission electron microscopy shows that the $Al_2O_3$ nanotubes have various thicknesses that can be controlled.

The bond strength of three types of $TiO_2$ coatings onto fluorine-doped $SnO_2$ (FTO) glass was investigated with the aid of a tape test according to ASTM D 3359-95. Transmittance was then measured using an UV-vis spectrophotometer in the wavelength range of 300 nm to 800 nm to evaluate the extent of adhesion of $TiO_2$ nanorods/nanoparticles on FTO glass. A sharp interface between the coating layer and the substrate was observed for single $TiO_2$ coating ($TiO_2$ nanorods/FTO glass), which may be detrimental to the bonding strength. In multicoating sample ($TiO_2$ nanorod/$TiO_2$ nanoparticle/$TiO_2$ nanoparticle/FTO glass), the tape test was not performed due to severe peeling-off prior to the test. On the other hand, the dual coating sample ($TiO_2$ nanorod/$TiO_2$ nanoparticle/FTO glass) showed minimum variation of transmittance (4%) after the test, suggesting that the topcoat adheres well with the FTO substrate due to the presence of the $TiO_2$ nanoparticle buffer layer. The use of a $TiO_2$ nanorod electrode layer with good adhesion may be attributed to the excellent dye sensitized solar cell performance.

A scientific analysis was carried out on the 14 pieces of glass beads excavated from the Daho-ri site NO. 6, Changweon. Most of the glass pieces were made of light blue transparent glass with round bubbles aligned in a regular direction. As a result of the SEM-EDS analysis, all the glass pieces turned out to be within the potash glass group (K₂O-SiO₂) and were identified to be the LCA (Low CaO, Low Al₂O₃) series glass, of which the concentration is 5% or below for CaO and Al₂O₃ respectively. In addition, it is presumed that plant materials were refined or a mineral (saltpetre, KNO₃) was used as the raw materials for making potash and also that the ingredient acting as a colorants for light blue color was affected deeply by CuO.

One-dimensional nanostructured metal oxide can be formed through an anodic oxidation, which is a typical technique of metal surface treatment. Studies on $TiO_2$ nanotubes have been widely carried out with increasing interests in $TiO_2$, which has an excellent functionality among various metal oxides. The present article reviews the principles of formation of $TiO_2$ nanotubes, which have been studied so far. In particular, the article discussed the equilibrium relationship between the oxide formation and etching, which is a key parameter of $TiO_2$ nanotube growth, and the formation of the porous structure. Furthermore, morphological considerations of $TiO_2$ nanotubes according to electrolyte conditions will be explained to the researchers who will study the application of $TiO_2$ nanotubes formed through the anodic oxidation in the future.

Hyperthermal ion scattering experiments were conducted with low kinetic energy (<35 eV) cesium ion beams to analyze the UV-photolyzed water-ice films. Neutral molecules (X) on the surface were detected as cesium-molecule ion clusters ($CsX^+$) which were formed through a Reactive Ion Scattering (RIS) process. Ionic species on the surface were desorbed from the surface via a low energy sputtering (LES) process, and were analyzed [1]. Using these methods, the thermal stability of hydronium ion ($H_3O^+$) that was produced by UV light was examined. As the thermal stability of $H_3O^+$ is related with the reaction, $H_3O^+$ + OH + $e^-$ (or $OH^-$) ${\rightarrow}$ $2H_2O$, which is similar or same with the reverse reaction of the auto-ionization of water, the result from this work would be helpful to understand the auto-ionization of $H_2O$ in water-ice that has not been well-understood yet. However, as $H_3O^+$ was not detected through a LES method, the titration experiment of $H_3O^+$ with methylamine ($CH_3NH_2$, MA), MA + $H_3O^+\;{\rightarrow}\;MAH^+$ + $H_2O$, was conducted. In this case, the presence of $MAH^+$ indicates that of $H_3O^+$ in the ice. Thus the pristine ice was photolyzed with UV light for a few minutes and this photolyzed ice was remained at the certain temperature for minutes without UV light. Then MA was adsorbed on that surface so that the population of $H_3O^+$ was found. From the calibration experiments, the relation of $MAH^+$ and $H_3O^+$ was found, so that the thermal stability of $H_3O^+$ can be investigated [2].

A twt -step carbothermal reduction scheme has been employed for the synthesis of SiC whiskers in an Ar or a H2 atmosphere via vapor-solid two-stage and vapor-liquid-solid growth mechanism respectively. It has been shown that the whisker growth proceed through the following reaction mechanism in an Ar at-mosphere : SiO2(S)+C(s)-SiO(v)+CO(v) SiO(v)3CO(v)=SiC(s)whisker+2CO2(v) 2C(s)+2CO2(v)=4CO(v) the third reaction appears to be the rate-controlling reaction since the overall reaction rates are dominated by the carbon which is participated in this reaction. The whisker growth proceeded through the following reaction mechaism in a H2 atmosphere : SiO2(s)+C(s)=SiO(v)+CO(v) 2C(s)+4H2(v)=2CH4(v) SiO(v)+2CH4(v)=SiC(s)whisker+CO(v)+4H2(v) The first reaction appears to be the rate-controlling reaction since the overall reaction rates are enhanced byincreasing the SiO vapor generation rate.

By studying Hwang Jae Nae Kyung(黃帝內經)'s O Haeng Kui Ryoo(五行歸類) in view of Chinese-Ancient-Thought like Chun In Hap Il Lon(天人合一論). Um Yang O Hang Lon(陰陽五行論). The theory of the month's age the conclusion is reached as follows 1. Chun In Hap Il Lon(天人合一論) means naturally men and nature consist of one energy to counteract each other and then developed to be concidered that the change of men and nature is same one;that is the basic thought of Hwang Jae Nae Kyung(黃帝內經) 2. Um Yang(陰陽) stands originally for the bright and the dark by sunrise or sunset. Ju Yuk Gye Sa Jun(周易繫辭傳) ahs considered Um Yang(陰陽) as the energy to explain changes of nature. O Haeng(五行) meaned originally five necessary materials or stuffs for living and then Chu Yun(鄒衍) has considered the difference between five powers in the nature through the combination with thought of O Haeng(五行). Hwang Jae Nae Kyung(黃帝內經) writes in the viewpoint of Um Yang O Haeng(陰陽五行) to analyze the changes of men and nature effectively. 3. O Haeng Kui Ryoo(五行歸類) is originated from Sang Su Hong Bum(尙書洪範) and its concrete examples are found in Kwan Ja(管子) and Yu SSi Chun Chu(呂氏春秋). O Haeng Kui Ryoo(五行歸類) in Hwang Jae Nae Kyung(黃帝內經) is widly affected by Kwan Ja O Haeng(管子五行) and adopts the opinion of Kum Mun Kyung Hak(今文經學) because of the background of times and medical physiology. 4. Hwang Jae Nae Kyung(黃帝內經) thinks that O Haeng(五行) means Mok(木) is the energy of being born, Hwa(火) growing-up, Kum(金) accumulating, Su(水) concluding, To(土) devoloping. O Haeng Kui Ryoo(五行歸類) in the heaven and the earth is classified by the property of O Haeng(五行). 5. O Haeng Kui Ryoo(五行歸類) in men can be explained so rationally with the property of O Haeng(五行) and the thery of an organism studied.

In the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene, CO2 could play a role as an oxidant to increase conversion of ethylbenzene and stability as well over TiO2-ZrO2 mixed oxide catalysts. TiO2-ZrO2 catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation method and were characterized by BET surface area, bulk density, X-ray diffraction, temperature programmed desorption of NH3 and CO2. These catalysts were found to be X-ray amorphous with enhanced surface areas and acid-base properties both in number and strength when compared to the respective oxides (TiO2 and CO2). These catalysts were found to be highly active (> 50% conversion), selective (> 98%) and catalytically stable (10 h of time-on-stream) at 600 oC for the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene. However, in the nitrogen stream, both activity and stability were rather lower than those in the stream with CO2. The TiO2-ZrO2 catalysts were catalytically superior to the simple oxide catalysts such as TiO2 and ZrO2. The synergistic effect of CO2 has clearly been observed in directing the product selectivity and prolonging catalytic activity.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the electrical properties of thick-film resistor (TFR) prepared from $CaO-ZnO-B_2O_3-Al_2O_3-SiO_2$ (CZBAS) glass containing $RuO_2$ particles. $RuO_2$-glass composite powder was made by mixing and melting oxide powders of constituents. For comparison, $RuO_2$ powder was simply mixed with glass powder. $RuO_2$-40wt% glass composite and mixture were dispersed in an organic binder to obtain printable resistor paste and then thick-film was formed by screen printing, followed by sintering at the range between $750^{\circ}C$ and $900^{\circ}C$ for 10 min with a heating rate of $50^{\circ}C/min$ in an ambient atmosphere. $RuO_2$-glass composite sample showed much higher resistance compared to the simple mixed sample. This could be attributed to the difference in conducting mechanism. After sintering at $850^{\circ}C$, temperature coefficient of resistance of composite sample was lower than that of simple-mixed sample. TFR with dense and homogeneous microstructure could be obtained by using $RuO_2$-glass composite powder.

10 wt% Mn supported on various commercial $TiO_2$ catalysts were prepared by wet-impregnation method for the low temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with $NH_3$. A combination of various physico-chemical techniques such as BET, XRD, XPS and TPR were used to characterize these catalysts. MnOx surface densities on MnOx/$TiO_2$ catalyst were related to surface area. As MnOx surface density lowered with high dispersion, the SCR activity for low temperature was increased and the reduction temperature ($MnO_2$ ${\rightarrow}$ $Mn_2O_3$) of surface MnOx was lower. For a high SCR, MnOx could be supported on a high surface area of $TiO_2$ and should be existed a high dispersion of non-crystalline species.
