New precursors as a Li adsorbent, $Li_{1.6}(MnM)_{1.6}O_4$ (M=Cu, Ni, Co, Fe), were synthesized by hydrothermal method and their physicochemical properties were discussed. XRD and HRTEM results revealed that the original spinel structure was stabilized by cobalt-doping while Cu-, Ni- and Fe-doping led to structural changes. Such a structural stabilization by Cobalt-doping was maintained after lithium leaching by acid treatment. Li absorption efficiency from seawater was significantly enhanced by using the Cobalt-doped spinel manganese oxide, $Li_{1.6}[MnCo]_{1.6}O_4$, compared to the commercially available $Li_{1.33}Mn_{1.67}O_4$; the adsorbed amount of Li from 1g-adsorbent was 35 and 16 mg by $Li_{1.6}[MnCo]_{1.6}O_4$, and $Li_{1.33}Mn_{1.67}O_4$, respectively.

In this study, the effects of small amounts (${\leq}3\;mol%$) of Li doping on the sintering characteristics and electrochemical performance of $(ZrO_2)_{0.89}(ScO_{1.5})_{0.1}(CeO_2)_{0.01}$ (ScSZ) were investigated. By adding 3 mol% lithium, the densification temperature of ScSZ was reduced from the conventional temperature of $1400^{\circ}C$ to $1200^{\circ}C$. It was found that Li doping also led to changes in the Zr:Sc ratio at the grain boundaries. Correspondingly, the dispersion of lithium zirconia at the grain boundaries accelerated the growth of ScSZ grains and increased the grain boundary resistance at temperatures below $450^{\circ}C$. At elevated temperatures of $450{\sim}750^{\circ}C$, the electrical conductivity of the ScSZ after doping remained almost unchanged under air and reducing atmospheres. These results suggest that the addition of lithium is promising for use in low temperature co-firing of ScSZ-based components for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells.

In this study, high nickel layered LiNi_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1O₂ cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries were modified by yttrium doping and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) coating. The effects of yttrium doping and PEDOT:PSS coating on the structural and electrochemical properties of the LiNi_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1O₂ cathode material were investigated and compared. The substitution of nickel with an electrochemically inert yttrium was confirmed to be successful in stabilizing the layered structure framework. Moreover, coating the surfaces of the LiNi_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1O₂ particles with a conductive polymer, PEDOT:PSS, improved the capacity retention, thermal stability, and impedance of the cathode material by increasing its ionic and electric conductivities.

Iron-doped LiNbO$_3$ crystals were grown by floating zone(FZ) method with different [Li]/[Nb] ratio in order to investigate doping effects of transition metal impurity in LiNbO$_3$ crystal. The grown crystals were analyized edge in UV/VIS/IR spectrometry and EPMA(electron probe micro-analysis). The absorption edge in UV-VIS region and OH-absorption peak in IR region were investigated. The change of Fe concentration along the solidification direction was also investigated

$LiFePO_4$ doped with Cr showed improved electrochemical properties as a cathode material of lithium-ion batteries compared to the undoped. The improvement was thought that the doping would raise the electronic conductivity of the compounds. The electrical conductivity of $LiFe_{0.965}Cr_{0.03}B_{0.005}PO_4$ and $LiFe_{0.965}Cr_{0.03}Al_{0.005}PO_4$ powder was measured in the temperature range from 30 to $80^{\circ}C$. The doped powders were synthesized via mechanochemical milling and subsequent heat treatment at 675~$750^{\circ}C$ for 5~10h. The doping enhanced grain growth and electrical conductivity. The electrical conductivity of the $LiFe_{0.965}Cr_{0.03}Al_{0.005}PO_4$ powder at $30^{\circ}C$ was $1{\times}10^{-8}S/cm$, which was higher two orders of magnitude than that of the undoped.

The characteristics of the lithium niobate single ($LiNbO_3$) crystals grown doped with $Mg^{2+}$ or $Zn^{2+}$ ions, which are well-known as the ions improving the photorefractive resistance of $LiNbO_3$, have been analysed in comparision with those of undoped $LiNbO_3$ crystal. In particular, $Zn^{2+}$ doping was estimated to increase the photorefractive resistance indirectly from the optical and electrical properties. Therefore, the $LiNbO_3$ crystals doped with ZnO could be used for high intensive laser device application.
