산화세륨($CeO_2$)는 고체산화물연료전지, 자동차 삼원 촉매, 산소 캐패시터 소재 등의 고온환경에서 구동되는 촉매 응용분야에 널리 활용되고 있으며 중요한 희토류 산화물 중에 하나이다. 고온 환경에서 $CeO_2$의 우수한 촉매 활성을 유지하기 위하여 초기 합성단계에서 높은 비표면적을 갖는 미세구조제어 연구와 나노 미세구조가 고온 열 사이클과 산화-환원 사이클 변화에서 안정하도록 하는 연구가 필요하여 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 탄산염 침전법의 전구체 결정화 단계에서의 이방성을 정밀 제어하여 고 비표면적의 flower-like $CeO_2$를 성공적으로 합성할 수 있었다. 또한, 서로 다른 탄산염이온 침전제의 침전 반응 경로 제어를 통한 침전 수화물 전구체의 이방적 결정 특성으로부터 최종 고 비표면적 $CeO_2$ 산화물의 미세구조 제어와 고온 안정 제어를 확인하고 특성을 평가하였다.

An advanced nuclear reactor based on molten salts including a molten salt reactor and pyroprocessing needs a sensitive monitoring system suitable for operation in harsh environments with limited access. Multi-element detection is challenging with the conventional technologies that are compatible with the in-situ operation; hence laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has been investigated as a potential alternative. However, limited precision is a chronic problem with LIBS. We increased the precision of LIBS under high temperature by protecting optics using a gas protective layer and correcting for shotto-shot variance and lens-to-sample distance using a laser-induced acoustic signal. This study investigates cerium as a surrogate for uranium and corrosion products for simulating corrosive environments in LiCl-KCl. While the un-corrected limit of detection (LOD) range is 425-513 ppm, the acoustic-corrected LOD range is 360-397 ppm. The typical cerium concentrations in pyroprocessing are about two orders of magnitude higher than the LOD found in this study. A LIBS monitoring system that adopts these methods could have a significant impact on the ability to monitor and provide early detection of the transient behavior of salt composition in advanced molten salt-based nuclear reactors.

We grew a $Li_6Lu(BO_3)_3:Ce^{3+}$ single crystal as a new scintillator. And, the scintillation and thermoluminescence properties of the scintillator were determined. The emission spectrum of $Li_6Lu(BO_3)_3:Ce^{3+}$ is located in the range of 370~530 nm, peaking at 416 nm and 439 nm, due to the $5d{\rightarrow}4f$ transition of $Ce^{3+}$ ions. The fluorescence decay time of the crystal is composed two components. The fast component is 34 ns (84%) and the slow component is 125 ns (16%) of the crystal. The afterglow is caused by the electron and hole traps in the crystal lattice. We determined physical parameters of the traps in the crystal. The thermoluminescence trap are composed a trap. The determined activation energy (E) and frequency factor (s) of the TL trap are 1.05 eV and $4.4{\times}10^{10}s^{-1}$, respectively.

Trivalent cerium ($Ce^{3+}$) activated yttrium aluminum garnet ($Y_3Al_5O_{12}$, YAG) phosphor thin films were deposited on quartz glass substrates by rf magnetron sputtering. The effects of sputtering parameters and annealing condition on the luminescent properties were investigated. The sputtering parameters were $O_2$/Ar gas ratio, rf power, and deposition time. The films were annealed at 1200 $^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours in $N_2+$vacuum atmosphere. Polycrystalline YAG:Ce thin film phosphor could be obtained with a gas ratio of $O_2$/(Ar+$O_2$)=0.5 after post-annealing. PL spectra excited at 450 nm showed a yellow single band at 550 nm.

Role of CaO in the sintering of 12Ce-TZP ceramics was studied. The addition of small amounts of CaO increase the densification rate of 12Ce-TZP by altering lattice defect structure and the diffusion coefficient of the rate controlling species, namely cerium and zirconium cations. CaO also inhibits grain growth during sintering and allows the sintering process to proceed to theoretical density by maintaining a high diffusion flux of vacancies from the pores to the grain boundaries. The inhibition of grain growth is accomplished by the segregation of solute at the grain boundaries, causing a decrease in the grain boundary mobility. The segregation of calcium was revealed by AES study.

Nanocrystalline ceria powders were prepared by hydrothermal treatment of cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate solution without a precipitating agent. A systematic investigation of the effect of hydrothermal temperature and react ion time on the physical properties of the product powders was carried out. When the hydrothermal temperature was increased, the product ceria powders exhibited larger crystallite size with higher yield. Increasing reaction time produced more crystalline ceria powders attributed to further hydrothermal reactions and structural rearrangement. The physical properties of ceria powders can be control led by adjusting the hydrothermal conditions.

현재, 메탈의 내부식성 코팅막 제조에 사용되고 있는 크로메이트 기반 코팅제는 유독성 물질에 대한 환경 규제에 따라 조만간 사용이 금지 될 예정이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 유독성 금속 내부식성 코팅제를 대체할 새로운 코팅 재료로 부식 억제제가 결합된 수용성 졸을 제조하고 그 특성을 보고하고자 한다 부식 억제제가 결합된 수용성 졸은 부분 가수 분해된 GPS((3-glycidoxypropyltriethoxysilane)에 Zirconiumoxychlorideoctahydrate 혹은 cerium nitrate를 일정 양 첨가하고 이온 교환수에 희석하여 제조하였다. 이 코팅 졸을 아연 도금 강판에 딥 코팅법으로 코팅한 후 상온에서 건조하고, 80~15$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하여 염수 분무 시험으로 백청 발생 정도를 관찰하여 내 부식성을 조사하였다. 코팅막의 두께는 수직으로 절단한 면을 전자 현미경으로 관찰하여 측정하였으며, 표면의 경도는 연필 경도계로 조사하였다. 또한 코팅막의 부식 전위는 전기화학적인 방법으로 분석되어 부식억제제의 종류에 따른 효과도 정량적으로 비교되었다.

We investigated hydrogen storage and production properties using redox system of iron oxide($Fe_{3}O_{4}$ + $4H_{2}$ ${\leftrightarrows}$ 3Fe + $4H_{2}O$) modified with rhodium, ceria and zirconia under atmospheric pressure. Reduction of iron oxide with hydrogen(hydrogen storage) and re-oxidation of reduced iron oxide with steam(hydrogen evolution) was carried out using a temperature programmed reaction(TPR) technique. On the temperature programmed studies, the effects of amounts of cerium and zirconium on the re-oxidation rate of partial reduced iron oxides were increased with increasing metal additives amount, but the rhodium amount showed little effect on the re-oxidation rate. On the thermal studies, the re-oxidation rates were enhanced with increasing temperature(300 $^{\circ}C$ < 350 $^{\circ}C$).

DPF technology has been considered as one of the most effective methods for reducing diesel particulate emission. PSA Peugeot Citroen introduced the DPF equipped diesel passenger car, Peugeot 607 HDI Sedan, in 2000 for the first time in the world, in which SiC filter, an oxidation catalyst, cerium based fuel born catalyst and post-injection technology were used for PM regeneration. In the present study, the characteristics of the Peugeot 607 DPF system were studied on chassis dynamometer and real road driving conditions. The change of emissions and fuel economy during 80,000km operation were also tested. Additionally, ash contents accumulated in the DPF filter was analyzed and particle size distributions was investigated after running of 80,000km.

Recently, amorphous selenium is used as x-ray conversion material for flat-panel x-ray detector. In this paper, we investigated the effect of breakdown under high voltage and leakage current in PN-type multi-layer structure based on p-type a-Se and n-type conductive thin film. Experimental results show that the multi-layer based detector reduced leakage current because n-type CeO2 conductive layer prevent from hole injection into a-Se layer from collection electrode, Also, the breakdown voltage was improved by dielectric layer between a-Se and top electrode.
