Emergence of advanced materials has been realized by the great demands for sophisticated state devices in high technology industry. It is the ear of speedy evolution of science and technology, in particular, materials processing technology, which enables us to synthesize any materials with respect to its purity and its perfection of crystal structure and shape (form) that have, heretofore not been available. The availability of ultra pure, fine raw materials, single crystals and thick/thin film materials has been largely responsible for such startling progresses that have been made in the realization of unforeseen, functional devices for high technology industry. Of the functional devices such as passive as active devices, non-silicon devices are mostly passive. Piezoelectric, electro-optic, magneto-optic devices, etc. are some of the examples. In this paper, magneto-optic materials for Faraday device, which is little known, are reviewed including its processing toward practical applications.

The preparation of $PbTiO_3$ powder was carried out using the oxide starting material by hydrothermal method. The powder of a crystalline phase with perovskite structure was synthesized. The optimum conditions for the preparation of powder were as follows; hydrothermal solvent; 8M-KOH or 8M-NaOH, reaction temperature; 250~$270^{\circ}C$, run time; 10 h. The ,shape of synthesized powders were well developed crystalline faces with specific surface area of about 2.3 $\textrm m^2$/g in KOH solution and about 5.0 $\textrm m^2$/g in NaOH solution. The cell parameters of powder were a = 3.90$\AA$, c = 4.14 $\AA$ and cell volume was 57.30 $\AA^3$. The cell ratio (c/a) of powder was the same as the theoretical ratio with c/a = 1.06 and the phase transition temperature(Tc) of the powders was about $470^{\circ}C$.

This study was investigated the environment of waste shells such as oyster, cockle and paphia on southern shore in korea and established the recycling method to prevent the environmental pollution, etc. The waste shells were reclaimed at public shore illegally or leaved on the surroundings of shore. The origin mechanism, XRD and TG-DTA analyses were performed to effective recycling of waste shells, and the optimal recycling method was preparation of the calcium carbonate. In this work, calcium carbonate and lime fertilizer of granular shape were prepared using the waste shell.

Carbon nanotilaments (CNFs) could be synthesized on nickel catalyst layer-deposited silicon oxide substrate using $C_2H_2$ and$H_2$ as source gases under thermal chemical vapor deposition system. By the incorporation of $SF_6$ as a cyclic modulation manner, the geometries of carbon coils-related materials, such as nano-sized coil and wave-like nano-sized coil could be observed on the substrate. The characteristics (formation density and morphology) of as-grown CNFs with or without $SF_6$ incorporation were investigated. Diameter size reduction for the individual CNFs-related shape and the enhancement of the formation density of CNFs-related material could be achieved by the incorporation of $SF_6$ as a cyclic modulation manner. The cause for these results was discussed in association with the slightly increased etching ability by $SF_6$ addition and the sulfur role in SF 6 for the geometry change.

Pulsed laser ablation in liquid medium was successfully employed to synthesize hydroxyapatite colloidal nanoparticles. The crystalline phase, particle morphology, size distribution and microstructure of the hydroxyapatite nanoparticles were investigated in detail. The obtained hydroxyapatite nanoparticles had spherical shape with sizes ranging from 5 to 20 nm. The laser ablation and the nanoparticle forming process were discussed with explosive ejection mechanism by investigating change of surface morphology on target. The analytical results of XPS, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy confirms that the stoichiometry and bonding properties of the hydroxyapatite nanoparticles are in good agreement with reported bulk hydroxyapatite materials.

$BaTiO_3$ fine particles were synthesized by hydrothermal method. $TiO_2$ and $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ were used as staring materials, and it was possible to synthesize $BaTiO_3$ fine particles in pure water by using excess $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$. The shape of synthesized particles are irregular but near spherical, and the particle size depends on the temperature and Ba/Ti atomic ratio.

Iron oxide powders were prepared under high temperature (up to $175^{\circ}C$) and pressure conditions( up to 129 pasi) by precipitation from metal nitrates with aqueous potassium hydroxide. Various types of iron oxide powders were obtained at different conditions. The size and the shape of the particles can be controlled as afunction of starting solution pH. The average particles size of the synthesized iron oxide powders increased, the particle shapes of the powders became fibrous, and the crystalline phase of the powder changes from iron oxide to iron hydroxide with increasing solution pH. The effects of synthesis parameters are discussed.

Detailed description of the crystal growth methods permitting one to obtain complicated shape crystals from the melt is given. The variable shaping technique provides the growth of crystals with a discrete altering cross-section configuration during crystallization. The dynamic local shaping technique enables one to grow items with a continuous alteration of the side surface profile by a preset program.

The $Li_2O-MgO-MgF_2-SiO_2$glasses with addition of $B_2O_3$ were investigated in order to make glass-ceramics for low temperature firing substrate. Glasses were made by melting at $1450^{\circ}C$ in the electronic furnace and crystallized at $750^{\circ}C$. After the crystallization, crystal phases and microstructure were observed. The crystal phases were polycrystalline of lithium boron fluorphlogopite and lithium fluorhectorite. The crystal shape was changed to grande type from needle type with the increase in $B_2O_3$ contents. Average particle size of the glass-ceramics aftar water swelling was $3.77{\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The optimum sintering temperature and sintering shrinkage of the substrate were $900^{\circ}C$ and 13.4vol%, respectively.

Si-wafers for solar cells were cast in a size of $50{\times}46{\times}0.5{\textrm}{mm}^3$ by vacuum casting method. The graphite mold coated by BN powder, which was to prevent the reaction of carbon with the molten silicon, was used. Without coating, the wetting and reaction of Si melt to graphite mold was very severe. In the case of BN coating, SiC was formed in the shape of tiny islands at the surface of Si wafer by the reaction between Si-melt and carbon of the graphite mold on the high temperature. The grain size was about 1 mm. The efficiency of Si solar cell was lower than that of Si solar cell fabricated on commercial single and poly crystalline Si wafer. The reason of low efficiency was discussed.
