We fabricated single cells with a cathode consisting of a $LaNi_{0.6}Fe_{0.4}O_3-Ce_{0.8}Sm_{0.2}O_{1.9}$ composite (LNF-S20DC composite) active layer and an LNF current collecting layer on a ${0.89ZrO_2}-{0.10Sc_2}{O_3}-0.01{Al_2}{O_3}$ electrolyte sheet. The cathode layers were prepared by the screen-printing method. The cathode properties of these cells were measured by the AC impedance method at $800^{\circ}C$. The cathodes with the ceria-LNF composite active layer exhibited high power performance prior to current loading. We investigated the influence of the mixture ratio of LNF and S20DC on the cathodes properties. The Sm in the ceria particles of the composite cathode was substituted with other rare-earth elements. Cathodes with Pr and Gd co-doped ceria in the active layer provided the better performance than those with Sm- or Gd-doped ceria.

Randomly oriented ferroelectric cerium-substituted $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films have been prepared by using metal-organic decomposition method. The layered perovskite structure was investigated using annealing for 1 h in the temperature range from $550\;{\sim}\;750\;^{\circ}C$. The structure and morphology of the films were characterized using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy The $Bi_{3.4}Ce_{0.6}Ti_3O_{12}$ (BCeT) thin films showed a perovskite phase and dense microstructure. The grain size of the BCeT films increasedwith increasing annealing temperature. The hysteresis loops of the films were well defined at temperatures above $600\;^{\circ}C$. The 200-nm-thick BCeT thin films annealed at $650\;^{\circ}C$ showed a large remanent polarization (2Pr) of 59.3 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ at an applied voltage of 10 V. The BCeT thin films showed good fatigue endurance up to $5\;{\times}\;10^9$ bipolar cycling at 5 V and 100 kHz.

The possibility of cerium dioxide $(CeO_2)$ thin films as insulators of metal erroelectric insulator semiconductor (MFIS) structures have been studied. The etching $CeO_2$ thin films have been perfonned in an inductively coupled $Cl_{2}/CF_{4}/Ar$ plasma. The high etch rate of the $CeO_2$ thin film was $250\AA /m$ at a 10 % addition of $Cl_2$ into the $Ar(80)/CF_{4}(20)$. The surface reaction of the etched $CeO_2$ thin films was investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. There are Ce-Cl and Ce-F bonding by chemical reaction between Cl, F and Ce. These products can be removed by the physical bombardment of incident Ar ions.

In this study, three different sizes of cerium oxide ($CeO_2$) nanoparticles were synthesized and exposed to Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate the potential harmful effect of $CeO_2$ nanoparticles on the environment. The effects of the $CeO_2$ nanoparticles on C. elegans were assessed at multiple levels, such as with respect to stress response gene expression, growth, reproduction and mortality. Moreover, to test the ecotoxicological relevance of $CeO_2$-induced gene expression. The overall results suggest that $CeO_2$ nanoparticles may provoke ecotoxicity in C. elegans especially with respect to gene expression, reproduction and survival, which can comprise an important contribution to knowledge on the ecotoxicity of $CeO_2$ nanoparticles, about which little data are available. This is particularly valuable in the biomarker research on ecotoxicology, as ecological relevance is a crucial criterion for the applicability of the biomarker in field biomonitoring and ecological risk assessment.

The chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is generally consisted of pad, slurry including abrasives and so on. However, there are some problems in a general CMP: defects, a high Cost of Consumable (CoC), an environmental problem. The slurry including abrasives especially gives rise to not only increase a CoC, but also prohibition from achieving an eco-process. This paper introduces an abrasive capsulation pad to achieve an eco-process decreasing abrasives used is CMP. The binder wth a water a water swelling and a water soluble characteristic is used for an auto-conditioning, and the $CeO_2$abrasive is selected for an abrasive capsulation pad. Comparing with a conventional CMP, an abrasive capsulation pad appears good characteristics in ILD CMP and is able to achieve an eco-process decreasing wasted slurry.

To improve the polarization property of cathodes, which is the main factor limiting the performance of protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs), $K_2NiF_4-type$ $Pr_2NiO_{4+{\delta}}$, which is expected to exhibit a triple conducting property (proton, oxygen ion, and hole conductions) was applied to PCFCs and its properties were investigated. Low-temperature microwave heat-treatment was used to achieve both sufficient interface adhesion between the electrolyte and the cathode layers and suppression of the secondary phase formation due to migration of elements such as barium and cerium. Through this fabrication method, a high performance of $0.82W{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ and low ohmic resistance of $0.06{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ were obtained in an $Ni-BaCe_{0.55}Zr_{0.3}Y_{0.15}O_{3-{\delta}}$ | $BaCe_{0.55}Zr_{0.3}Y_{0.15}O_{3-{\delta}}$ | $Pr_2NiO_{4+{\delta}}$ single cell at $650^{\circ}C$. This result verifies that the $K_2NiF_{4+{\delta}}-type$ cathode shows good chemical compatibility which, in turn, will make it a potent candidate as a PCFC cathode.

$Tb^{3+}$이온이 첨가된 Hoya FR5 유리와 $Ce^{3+}$이론이 첨가된 Hoya FR4 유리의 Faraday 회전과 자기화를 4.2K-10K 저온 영역에서 자기장을 80kG까지 증가시키면서 온도 T와 자기장 H의 함수로 측정하였다. 사용파장은 아르곤 레이저의 514.5nm였다. H/T> $5kG.K^{-1}$ 이상에서 나타난 자기화 및 Faraday 회전의 포화현상을 상자성체 양자이론으로 해석할 수 있었다. 계산된 맺음변수들로부터 $Ce^{3+}$ 유리의 큰 Verdet 상수는 $4f\rightarrow5d$궤도 유효 전기쌍극자 전이효과에 기인되고 $Tb^{3+}$ 유리의 큰 Verdet 상수는 자기화에 기인됨을 알 수 있었다.

Trivalent cerium$(Ce^{3+})$ activated YAG (yttrium aluminum garnet, $Y_3Al_5O_{12})$) thin films phosphor were deposited on quartz glass substrates by rf magnetron sputtering. The effects of sputtering parameters, annealing atmosphere, and substrates on growing behaviors and luminescent properties were investigated. The sputtering parameters were $O_2/(Ar+O_2)$ gas ratio, rf power, and deposition time. XRD (X-ray diffractometery) spectra exhibited that as-deposited films were amorphous, while they were transformed to the crystalline phases by post-annealing. The crystallinity and the atomic ratio strongly depended on the sputtering gas ratio $O_2/(Ar+O_2)$. High quality YAG:Ce thin films could be obtained at the gas ratio of $50\%$ oxygen. After annealing process, PL (Photoluminescence) spectra excited at 450nm showed a yellow single band at 550nm. The films deposited at the sputtering gas ratio of 50% oxygen exhibited the highest PL intensity.

Mg-Al-Sn-Si system alloy, as a promising cheap heat-resistant Mg alloy for automobile engine part, has been investigated. Refinement of microstructure and precipitation of thermally stable secondary phases are important goal for the design of heat-resistant Mg alloy. In this study, the effect of Ce on the microstructure and room temperature mechanical properties of Mg-Al-Sn-Si alloy was investigated. High thermally stable $Mg_2Si$ phases in Mg-Al-Sn-Si alloy is very useful intermetallic compound. However, the $Mg_2Si$ phases often result in poor mechanical properties due to the coarse chinese type $Mg_2Si$ phases. The experimental specimens were fabricated by fluxless melting under $CO_2+SF_6$ atmosphere and poured into the permanent pre-heated at $200^{\circ}C$. It was told that Ce addition can modify $Mg_2Si$ phases and refine microstructure and improve the tensile strength, yield strength and elongation.

생돈피를 원료로 하여 제조한 미세결정성 콜라겐의 기능적성질을 측정하였다. 미세결정성 콜라겐겔은 딕소트로픽 유체였으며 pH 3.5에서 최대의 점도를 보였다. 점도는 겔 농도가 증가할수록 비선형으로 증가하였으며 온도가 증가할수록 감소하였고 온동의 영향은 pH 4.5이하에서 더 컸다. 거품형성용량은 젤라틴과 비슷하였으나 난백보다는 좋았다. 그러나 거품안정성은 난백에 비해 떨어졌다. 유화용량은 돈육에 비해 열등하였다. 물리화학적 분석치는 우피의 진피층을 원료로 한 의약용 미세결정성 콜라겐의 것과 약간 달랐다.
