Microstructural investigations of $(Li_{1/2}Pr_{1/2})TiO_3$ (LPT) complex perovskite compounds were carried out using X-ray diffractometry and transmission electron microscopy. LPT has not only the ordering of A-site cation deficiencies but also has the antiphase and inphase tilting of oxygen octahedron and the antiparallel shift of cations. Both the antiphase boundaries and the ferroelastic domains are present in the microstructure. Spinodal decomposition is found in the microstructure. The measured dielectric properties were ${\varepsilon}_r=84.6,\;Q\;{\Large f}_o=776\;GHz,\;{\tau}_{f}=-233.66ppm/^{\circ}C$.

Crystal structure and structural stability of needle-shaped maghemite(${\gamma}$-{{{{ { {Fe }_{2 }O }_{3 } }}) have been studied by the computation and estimation of lattice energies interionic distances and site potentials. The refined struc-tures analyzed with cubic system(space group P4332) and tetragonal system(space group P4332) were used for these computations. The lattice energy of tetragonal system is -143.10eV/molecule. The maghemite structure with tetragonal system is more stable than that with cubic system. The ordering energy of the FE and cation vacancy within the octahedral site the 4b site of the structure with cubic system(space group P4332) is -0.95eV/molecule but this Fe has larger interionic distance and is very unstable.

FeM2X4 spinel structures, where M is a transition metal and X is oxygen or sulfur, are candidate materials for spin filters, one of the key devices in spintronics. Both the Fe and M ions can occupy tetrahedral and octahedral sites; therefore, these types of compounds can display various physical and chemical properties [1]. On the other hand, the electronic and magnetic properties of these spinel structures could be modified via the control of cation distribution [2, 3]. Among the spinel oxides, iron manganese oxide is one of promising materials for applications. FeMn2O4 shows inverse spinel structure above 390 K and ferrimagnetic properties below the temperature [4]. In this work, we report on the structural and magnetic properties of epitaxial FeMn2O4 thin film on MgO(100) substrate. The reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicated that films were epitaxially grown on MgO(100) without the impurity phases. The valance states of Fe and Mn in the FeMn2O4 film were carried out using x-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS). The magnetic properties were measured by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), indicating that the samples are ferromagnetic at room temperature. The structural detail and origin of magnetic ordering in FeMn2O4 will be discussed.

Crystal structure of $(Ba_{1-x}La_x)[Mg_{(1+x)/3}Nb_{(2-x)/3}]O_3$ (BLMN) ceramics with $0{\leq}x{\leq}1$ was investigated using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). When La content, x, is above 0.1, the 1:2 ordered hexagonal structure found in $Ba(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ (BMN) was transformed into 1:1 ordered cubic structure. The 1:1 ordered cubic structure was maintained up to x=0.7. However, when x exceeded 0.7, BLMN was transformed 1:1 ordered structure which has cation displacement and in-phase and anti-phase tilt of octahedra.

[ $LiOH{\cdot}H^2O$ ]와 $Ni(OH)^2$를 기계적으로 혼합하여 고상법으로 $LiNiO^2$를 합성하고, $LiNiO^2$의 전기화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 기계적 혼합을 위해 SPEC mill을 사용하였으며, 1시간 동안 milling하여 공기 중 $450^{\circ}C$에서 5시간 동안 전처리한 후 $750^{\circ}C$에서 30시간 동안 산소를 흘려주면서 하소한 시료가 가장 좋은 전기화학적 특성을 나타내었다. $2.7\~4.15V$에서 0.1C로 충${\cdot}$방전시 초기방전용량은 그다지 높지 않았으나(145.8mAh/g) 좋은 싸이클 성능을 나타내었으며, $2.7\~4.2V$에서 0.1C로 충${\cdot}$방전시 높은 초기방전용량(164.7mAh/g)을 나타내었으나 싸비클 성능은 그리 좋지 않았는데, 이는 충${\cdot}$방전시 육방구조$(H^2)$에서 육방구조$(H^3)$로의 상전이가 영향을 주는 것으로 사료된다. 초기방전용량과 방전용량은 Cation mixing을 나타내는 $I^{003}/I^{104}$값보다 hexagonal ordering을 나타내는 R-factor에 더 의존하는 것으로 사료된다.

Crystal structure of $(Ba-{1-x}La_x)[Mg_\frac{1+x}{3}}Nb_\frac{{2-x}{3}}]O_3$ (BLMN) ceramics with 0\leq1x \geq was investigated using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and high reso(B $a_{l-x}$L $a_{x}$)[M $g_{(1+x)}$3/N $b_{(2-x)/3}$］ $O_3$lution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). When the La content, x, is above 0.1, the 1:2 ordered hexagonal structure found in Ba($Mg_\frac{1}{3}Nb_\frac{2}{3}})O_3$(BMN) was transformed into 1:1 ordered cubic structure. The 1:1 ordered cubic structure was maintained up to x=0.7. When x exceeded 0.7, however, BLMN was transformed into 1:1 ordered structure which has cation displacement and in-phase and anti-phase tilt of octahedra.

We investigated the physical properties of stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric oxide doped complex perovskite, $Ba(Zn_{1/3}Ta_{2/3})O_3$ ceramics and their impacts on the microwave dielectric performances using various characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and network analyzer. According to the measurement of lattice constant changes, anomalous lattice volume contraction of $ZrO_2$ doped $Ba(Zn_{1/3}Ta_{2/3})O_3$ sample only showed the dielectric quality factor enhancements, which was due to the lattice volume contraction as well as the 1:2 B-site cation ordering. In addition, NiO doping was useful to the stabilization of temperature coefficient of resonance frequency.

The spin density of ${\beta}-MnO_2$ structure was theoretically investigated by $DV-X_{\alpha}$ (the discrete variation $X{\alpha}$) method, which is a sort of the first principle molecular orbital method using Hatre-Fock-Slater approximation. The used cluster model was $[Mn_{14}O_{56}]^{-52}$. The ${\beta}-MnO_2$ is a paramagnetic oxide semiconductor material having the energy band gap of 0.18 eV and an 3 loan-pair electrons in the 3d orbital of an cation. This material exhibits spin-only magnetism and has the magnetic ordering temperature of 94 K. Below this temperature its magnetism appears as antiferromagnetism. The calculations of electronic state showed that if the initial spin condition of input parameters changed, the magnetic state changed from paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic. When d orbital of all Mn atoms in cluster had same initial spin state as only up spin, paramagnetic spin density distribution appeared by the calculation. On the other way, d orbital had alternately changed spin state along special direction the resulted spin distribution showed antiferromagnetism.
