  • The stochiometric composition of $AgGaS_2$/GaAs polycrystal source materials for the $AgGaS_2$/GaAs epilayer was prepared from horizontal furnace. From the extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns it was found that the polycrystal $AgGaS_2$/GaAs has tetragonal structure of which lattice constant an and Co were 5.756 $\AA$ and 10.305 $\AA$, respectively. $AgGaS_2$/GaAs epilayer was deposited on throughly etched GaAs(100) substrate from mixed crystal $AgGaS_2$/GaAs by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $590^{\circ}C$ and $440^{\circ}C$ respectively. The crystallinity of the grown $AgGaS_2$/GaAs epilayer was investigated by the DCRC (double crystal X-ray diffraction rocking curve). The optical energy gaps were found to be 2.61 eV for $AgGaS_2$/GaAs epilayer at room temperature. The temperature dependence of the photocurrent peak energy is well explained by the Varshni equation, then the constants in the Varshni equation are given by $\alpha=8.695{\times}10^{-4}$ eV/K, and $\beta=332K$. From the photocurrent spectra by illumination of polarized light of the $AgGaS_2$/GaAs epilayer, we have found that crystal field splitting ${\Delta}Cr$ was 0.28 eV at 20 K. From the PL spectra at 20 K, the peaks corresponding to free and bound excitons and a broad emission band due to D-A pairs are identified. The binding energy of the free excitons are determined to be 0.2676 eV and 0.2430 eV and the dissociation energy of the bound excitons to be 0.4695 eV.

  • MO's of a complex are expanded in terms of the set of Shull-Lowdin functions based on a single point, the nucleus of central metal ion, and the result was interpreted from the viewpoint of perturbation theory. We find that even in the case of $[NiF_6]^{4-}$, which has relatively small covalency, excited configurations with high orbital angular momentum are considerably mixed into $e_g$ and $t_{2g}$, orbitals of central metal ion, and that the distortions in these orbitals differ from each other. Therefore it is concluded that the energy difference between $e^*_g$ and $t^*_{2g}$, orbitals evaluated in the MO scheme has little meaning of the unique parameter 10Dq in the crystal field theory, and that such a unique parameter cannot be defined in a rigorous sense in the MO scheme.

  • $Ni_{0.65}Zn_{0.35}Cu_{0.1}Fe{1.9}O_4$ has been studied with Mossbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure is found to be a cubic spinel with the lattice constant $a_0=8.390{\AA}$. Mossbauer spectra of $Ni_{0.65}Zn_{0.35}Cu_{0.1}Fe{1.9}O_4$ has been taken at various temperatures ranging from 12 K to 705 K. The isomer shift indicates that iron ions are ferric at tetrahedral [A] and octahedral sites [B], respectively. The Neel temperature is determined to be $T_N=705\;K$. As the temperature increases toward $T_N$ a systematic line broadening effect in the Mossbauer spectrum is observed and interpreted to originate from different temperature dependencies of the magnetic hyperfine fields at various iron sites. The quadrupole splitting just on $T_N$ is 0.41 mm/s whereas the quadrupole shift below $T_N$ vanishes. This implies that the orientation of the magnetic hyperfine field with respect to be principal axes of the electric field gradient is random.

  • We have synthesized $CaS:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor by using a sealing vessel and evaluated its photoluminescence properties. The method using a sealing vessel is simple and economical in comparison with other methods reported up to date. As an activator concentration was increased from 0.1 mol% to 4 mol%, the main emission wavelength of the phosphor was increased from 642 nm to 651 nm due to the crystal field splitting of 5d levels of $Eu^{2+}$ ion. Although the same amount of $Eu_2O_3$ was used, the concentration of the activator ions, which were reduced from $Eu^{3+}\;to\;Eu^{2+}$ and substituted $Ca^{2+}$ ions, was increased with increase of firing temperature. Therefore, the main emission wavelength was also. shifted from 645 nm to 651 nm with increase of firing temperature from $1100^{\circ}C\;to\;1300^{\circ}C$. The critical distance($R_{c1}=20.65\;{\AA}$) between $Eu^{2+}$ ions calculated from the critical concentration was well matched with that($R_{c2}=19.17\;{\AA}$) calculated from the Dexter formula.

  • The chemical behavior of the transition metal (Nb4+ and Mo4+) complexes with organoligand (dichloro-bis(η-cyclopentadienyl) has been investigated by the UV/vis-spectrophotometric, magnetic, and electrochemical method. The two or three energy absorption bands are observed by the spectra of these complexes. The magnitude of crystal field splitting energy, the spin pairing energy and bond strength was obtained from the spectra of the complexes. These are found to be delocalization, low-spin state, and strong bonding strength. The magnetic dipolemoment are found to be paramagnetic and diamagnetic complexes. The redox reaction processes of complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry in aprotic media. As a result the redox reaction proceses of Nb-C complex was couple-single reaction with diffusion and reaction current one electron process, and also Mo-C complex was couple-single reaction with reaction current of one electron process.

  • Precisely refined Mossbauer study and nano structure observation revealed that intergranular phase formed between a-Fe and Nd₂Fe14B phase in NdFeNbB alloys plays a significant role on the magnetic properties. The intergranular interaction was characterized in term of Henkel Plot (δM plot), and hyperfine field, quardrupole splitting and isomer shift were refined to predict the presence and role of the intergranular phase. By the addition of Nb into Nd8Fe86B6 composition, coercivity was found to increase by 25% due to the refinement of average grain size of both the soft and hard magnetic phases which was decreased from 50 nm of virgin Nd/sub 8/Fe/sub 86/B/sub 6/ to 25 nm in Nd8Fe 85Nb₁B6 alloys. The role of Nb addition was confirmed to stabilize the Nd₂Fe14B lattice preventing from thermal vibration of the corresponding sites substituted Fe by Nb atoms in all sites in the Nd₂Fe14B lattice. The enhanced coercivity was originated from the exchange hardening of soft and amorphous phases surrounding the hard magnetic Nd₂Fe14B crystal.

  • $^{57}Fe_xCu_{1-x}O$(x = 0.0, 0.02) powders were prepared by sol-gel method and their crystallographic and magnetic hyperfine properties have been studied using X-ray diffraction and $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy (MS). The crystal structure of the samples is found to be monoclinic without any secondary phases and their lattice parameters increase with increasing annealing temperature ($T_A$), which is attributed to an increase in oxygen-vacancy content. MS measurements at room temperature indicate that $Fe^{3+}$ ions substitute $Cu^{2+}$ sites and ferromagnetic phase grow with increasing $T_A$. Magnetic hyperfine and quadrupole interactions of $^{57}Fe_{0.02}Cu_{0.98}O$ ($T_A=500^{\circ}C$) in the antiferromagnetic state at 17 K have been studied, yielding the following results: $H_{hf}=426.94\;kOe$, ${\Delta}E_Q=-3.67\;mm/s$, I.S.=0.32 mm/s, ${\theta}=65^{\circ}$, ${\phi}=0^{\circ}$, and ${\eta}=0.6$.
