Diffraction Bragg gratings consisting of metal (silver) nanoparticles are generated inside a soda-lime glass substrate. After ion-exchanging and annealing processes in the glass, the silver nanoparticles are first formed with the particle diameters of 10 nm ∼ 30 nm. By interfering two CW laser beams at ∼ 60 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ deep under the surface of the nanoparticles-dispersed glass, Bragg gratings with thickness of 15 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and period of 3.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ are generated. Diffraction efficiency of the gratings formed by two TE-polarized beams is three times higher than that by two TM-polarized beams. From this polarization dependence, we have found that strong coupling of the surface plasmons induced on the metal particles may contribute dominantly to generate the diffraction grating.

We prepared $SiO_2-Na_2O-R_mO_n$ thin films based on economics of water glass and investigated optical, mechanical properties of product thin films. Coating sol stabilized with 1 N HCl and 1 N $NH_4OH$, was fabricated by using water glass and calcium nitrate, and aluminum nitrate as starting materials. As-coated films on stainless steel, Si wafer and soda-lime-silica glass by spinning were finally annealed at 500, 750 and $900^{\circ}C$. Micro hardness and nitrogen content in film surface of annealed films were measured by Knoop hardness tester and EDX, respectively. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM) and UV-VIS spectroscopy were adopted to analyze surface morphology and thickness and reflectance of our films.

Porous glass ceramics composed of $Ag_2-Li_2O-CaO-TiO_2-P_2O_5$-CaO with 0.05-1.5 mole CuO were prepared by melting and 2 step heat treatment for nucleation at $610^{\circ}C$ and crystallization at $840^{\circ}C$. $\beta$-$Ca_3(PO_4)_2$crystal phase was selectively leached out in 1N-HC1 solution for 3 days, leaving $AgTi_2(PO_4)_3$and $LiTi_2(PO_4)_3$crystal phases. Antibacterial effects and characterizations of the porous glass ceramics were investigated. Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhi bacteroa were used in this study. It was found that the resultant porous glass ceramics show excellent bacteriostatic properties.

In this study, the aspherical lens for optical communications produced not with an one-step pneumatic type of external pressurization system (existed GMP process) but a constant weight of self-loaded mold put up to upper core. So the lens is molding with self-loaded weight molding and it calls Weight Molding process. In self-loaded molding process, we measured changes of center thickness molding lenses with each variable molding temperatures and time to find the effect of center of lens thickness to search key factors. As experimental results, the center thickness reach to targeted lenses step time value was changed drastically and it depends by molding temperature. If the molding temperature gets higher, the targeted lens that is reaching to the center thickness step time value was decreased. To find the effect of life improvement on mold core by imposing the self-loaded molding process we molded with GMP(Glass molding press) method and self-loaded molding method for 9,000 times and measured the lenses shape accuracy and surface roughness to evaluate the core life. As a result the self-loaded molding method core has 2,000 times longer that GMP (Glass molding press) method. If we adopt self-loaded molding method of the optical aspherical lens molding in the future, we expect that it would reduce the expense of changing the molds by molding core life improvements.

This study successfully prepared high-porosity aluminosilicate fibrous porous ceramics through vacuum suction filtration using aluminosilicate fiber as the primary raw material and glass powder as binder, with the appropriate incorporation of glass fiber. The effects of the composition of raw materials and sintering process on the structure and properties of the material were studied. The results show that when the content of glass powder reached 20 wt% and the samples were sintered at the temperature of 1,000 ℃, strong bonds were formed between the binder phase and fibers, resulting in a compressive strength of 0.63 MPa. When the sintering temperatures were increased from 1,000 ℃ to 1,200, the open porosity of the samples decreased from 89.08 % to 82.38 %, while the linear shrinkage increased from 1.13 % to 10.17 %. Meanwhile, during the sintering process, a large amount of cristobalite and mullite were precipitated from the aluminosilicate fibers, which reduced the performance of the aluminosilicate fibers and hindered the comprehensive improvement in sample performance. Based on these conditions, after adding 30 wt% glass fiber and being sintered at 1,000 ℃, the sample exhibited higher compressive strength (1.34 MPa), higher open porosity (89.13 %), and lower linear shrinkage (5.26 %). The aluminosilicate fibrous porous ceramic samples exhibited excellent permeability performance due to their high porosity and interconnected three-dimensional pore structures. When the samples were filtered at a flow rate of 150 mL/min, the measured pressure drop and permeability were 0.56 KPa and 0.77 × 10^-6 m² respectively.

VO$_2$ceramics exhibiting a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) of resistivity have been widely used as temperature dependence resistors. The NTC effect similar to $VO_2$ceramics was observed when a low-thermal-expansion ceramic matrix was loaded near the percolation threshold with conductive metal particles. The resistivity in a composite made from silica glass and 20 vol% Ag filler suddenly decreased from $10^{-7}$ to $10^3\;\Omega$cm at about $300^{\circ}C$.

ZnO thin film co-doped with F and Al was prepared on a glass substrate via simple non-alkoxide sol-gel spin coating. For a fixed F concentration, the addition of Al co-dopant was shown to reduce the resistivity mainly due to an increase in electrical carrier density compared with ZnO doped with F only, especially after the second post-heat-treatment in a reducing environment. There was no effective positive contribution to the reduction in resistivity due to the mobility enhancement by the addition of Al co-dopant. Optical transmittance of the ZnO thin film co-doped with F and Al in the visible light domain was shown to be higher than that of the ZnO thin film doped with F only.

This study has been focused on an effective surface finishing method combining ELID (ELectrolytic In-process Dressing) and MAP (Magnetic Assisted Polishing) for the nano-precision mirror grinding of glass-lens molding mould. ELID grinding is an excellent technique for mirror grinding of various advanced metallic or nonmetallic materials. A polishing process is also required for elimination of scratches present on ELID grinded surfaces. MAP has been used as polishing method due to its high polishing efficiency and superior surface quality. It also presents some techniques for achieving the nanometer roughness of the hard material such as WC-Co, which are extensively used in precision tooling material.

Ultrafine cadmium ferrite particles have been investigated by X-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscopy and SQUID magnetometry. All peaks of X-ray diffraction patterns are broad, but correspond to a cubic spinel structure with the lattice constant of 8.65 $\AA$. The average particle size determined by TEM is 9.7 nm and the size distribution of particles is not normal, but lognormal. The maximal magnetization measured at 5 K was 17.7 emu/g. The experimental data show a transi-tion from a disorder ferrimagnetic phase to a spin-glass phase (i.e. reentrant behavior) with a freezing temperature (T$\_$f/) of 30 K. Superparamagnetic behavior of the particles is confirmed by the coincidence of the plots of M vs. H/T for 100 and 300 K.
