The new molybdenum(Ⅴ)-triethylenetetraamine complexes such as Trien$H_4(MoOCl_5)_2,\;(MoOCl_3)_2$(trien), and$Mo_2O_4Cl_2$ (trien) have been prepared, and the chemical, magnetic and spectroscopic properties of the complexes have been investigated. Trien$H_4(MoOCl_5)_2has been isolated as green crystal and from this salt the nonelectrolytic and paramagnetic complexes,$(MoOCl_3)_2$ (trien) have been prepared by evolution of hydrogen chloride in anhydrous ethanol. Hydrolysis of triethylenetetraammonium oxopentachloromolybdate(V) yielded the nonelectrolytic and dismagnetic complex, $Mo_2O_4Cl_2$(trien) as brown solid.

$MoS_2$ precursors were synthesized by reacting thioacetamide ($C_2H_5NS$) with sodium molybdate dihydrate ($Na_2MoO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$) in aqueous HCl solution. $MoS_2$ nanoparticles were prepared from dried $MoS_2$ precursors by calcination in an electric furnace at $700^{\circ}C$ for 2 h under an inert argon atmosphere. $MoS_2-C_{60}$ nanocomposites were obtained by heating $MoS_2$ nanoparticles and fullerene ($C_{60}$) together in an electric furnace at $700^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. Their morphological and the structural properties were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The $MoS_2$ nanoparticles and $MoS_2-C_{60}$ nanocomposites were used as catalysts in the reductions of 2-, 3-, and 4-nitrophenol in the presence of sodium borohydride. The photocatalytic activities of the $MoS_2$ nanoparticles and $MoS_2-C_{60}$ nanocomposites were evaluated in the degradation of organic dyes (brilliant green, methylene blue, methyl orange, and rhodamine B) under ultraviolet light (254 nm).

In this work, comparative studies on microstructure and mechanical properties between $Mo_2N$ and Mo-Si-N coatings were conducted. Ternary Mo-Si-N coatings were deposited on AISI D2 steel substrates by a hybrid method, where AIP technique was combined with a magnetron sputtering technique. Instrumental analyses of XRD, HRTEM, and XPS revealed that the Mo-Si-N coatings must be a composite consisting of fine $Mo_2N$ crystallites and amorphous $Si_3N_4$. The hardness value of Mo-Si-N coatings significantly increased from 22 GPa of $Mo_2N$ coatings to about 37 GPa with Si content of 10 at.% due to the refinement of $Mo_2N$ crystallites and the composite microstructure characteristics. The average friction coefficient of the Mo-Si-N coatings gradually decreased from 0.65 to 0.4 with increasing Si content up to 15 at.%. The effects of Si content on microstructure and mechanical properties of Mo-N coatings were systematically investigated.

$MoO{_4}^{2-}$ is the stable chemical species of Mo(VI) in alkaline solution. In the pH range of 2 to 6, condensation polymerization between $MoO{_4}^{2-}$ and hydrogen ion results in the formation of various polyanions of Mo(VI). Polycations of Mo(VI) begin to form when solution pH is less than 2. As the concentration of inorganic acid increases, polycations of Mo(VI) can react with the anion of the inorganic acid, resulting in the formation of heteranions of Mo(VI). The distribution of Mo(VI) species at pH < 6 depends on the concentration of Mo(V) and inorganic acid. In order to analyze the solvent extraction and ion exchange data on Mo(VI) from concentrated inorganic acid solution, it is necessary to elucidate the nature of Mo(VI) complexes.

Ni-Ti shape memory alloy for dental nerve treatment devices was prepared by adding Mo to Ni-Ti alloy to improve flexibility and fatigue fracture characteristics and simultaneously increase corrosion resistance. Surface properties of the alloy were evaluated. Microstructure analysis of the Ni-Ti-xMo alloy revealed that the amount of needle-like structure increased with increasing Mo content. The shape of the precipitate showed a pattern in which a long needle-like structure gradually disappeared and changed into a small spherical shape. As a result of XRD analysis of the Ni-Ti-xMo alloy, R-phase structure appeared as Mo was added. R-phase and B2 structure were mainly observed. As a result of DSC analysis, phase transformation of the Ti-Ni-Mo alloy showed a two-step phase change of B2-R-B19' transformation with two exothermic peaks and one endothermic peak. As Mo content increased, R-phase formation temperature gradually decreased. As a result of measuring surface hardness of the Ti-Ni-Mo alloy, change in hardness value due to the phase change tended to decrease with increasing Mo content. As a result of the corrosion test, the corrosion potential and pitting potential increased while the current density tended to decrease with increasing Mo content.

A series of oxo-and sulfido-bridged molybdenum (V) complexes, Mo$_2$O$_4$L$_2$, Mo$_2$O$_3$L$_4$, Mo$_2$O$_2$S$_2$L$_2$, and Mo$_2$OS$_3$L$_2$ [L = bis(hydroxyethyl)dithiocarbamate] have been prepared. The complexes with bridging and terminal oxo groups have been synthesized by the reactions of (PyH)$_2$MoOCl$_5$ or MoCl$_5$ and ligand in water. One of the rest two complexes, in which bridging and terminal oxo groups have been replaced by sulfido in Mo$_2$O$_4^{2+}$ core, Mo$_2$O$_2$S$_2$L$_2$ have been prepared by addition of triphenylphosphine to a chloroform solution of Mo$_2$OS$_3$L$_2$. While, Mo$_2$OS$_3$L$_2$ is obtained from aqueous solution of (NH$_4$)$_2$MoS$_4$ and ligand in the presence of sodium dithionite. The complexes are identified by elemental analysis, and spectral data of IR, UV-vis, nmr, and mass. Also, the electrochemical behaviour for the complexes in dimethylsulfoxide has been investigated by the cyclic voltammograms.

The Electrochemical stabilities of the Brewer-Engel type intermetallic compounds of Co-Mo $(35 wt\%)$ and Ni-Mo$(35 wt\%)$ manufactured by the arc-melting method for the hydrogen electrode of $H_2-O_2$ alkaline fuel cell were investigated. Effects of temperature and concentration on the electrochemical behavior of the electrodes in the $80^{\circ}C$ 6 N KOH solution deaerated with $N_2$ gas were studied by electrochemical methods. The effect of overpotential on the electrochemical stabilities of Co-Mo and Ni-Mo intermetallic compounds was also discussed under the normal operation condition of AFC. It was shown that Co-Mo electrode had lower electrochemical stability as compared to Ni-Mo. In the case of Co-Mo electrode, a simultaneous dissolution of cobalt and molybdenum has occurred at low anodic overpotential form equilibrium hydrogen electrode potential, but the dissolution of cobalt was serious, and Co(OH)l layer on the electrode surface formed at the high anodic overpotential. In contrast the Ni-Mo electrode had high electrochemical stability because formation of the dense and thin protective $Ni(OH)_2$ layer prevented the dissolution of molybdenum.

Some molybdenum(III) and (IV) complexes have been prepared from the reaction of $MoCl_4$·2MeCN with N, P, O-donating ligands and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared and UV-Visible spectroscopy. 3,5-Lutidine, 1,2-phenylenediamine, 8-hydroxyquinoline, 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, triphenylphosphine and 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane were chosen as coordinating ligands. Stretching frequencies $\upsilon$ (Mo-Cl) of Mo(IV) appear at higher frequencies than those of Mo(III) complexes due to the increasing oxidation number of metal. $MoCl_4(L)_2$ exhibit one Mo-Cl stretching frequency, whereas Mo$Cl_4$(L^L) exhibit four Mo-Cl stretching frequencies. The number of Mo-Cl stretching frequency suggestes the former complexes have trans($D_{4h}$) and the latter complexes have cis($C_{2v}$) symmetry. Stretching frequency ${\nu}g(C{\equiv}N)$ of acetonitrile in Mo(III) complexes are shifted to about 30 $cm^{-1}$ higher frequency compared with that of a free ligand (2260 $cm^{-1}$). These spectral data indicates that Mo(III) complexes are in the octahedral geometries with the coordinated acetonitrile. Finally each molybdenum(III) and (IV) complexes showed the following formulation; $[MoCl_4(L)_2]$,[Mo$Cl_4$(L^L)], $[MoCl_3(L)_2MeCN]$ and [Mo$Cl_3$(L^L)MeCN].

In this paper, the effect of MoSe₂ on the contact resistance (R_C) of the transparent conducting oxide (TCO) and Mo junction in the scribed P2 region of the Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ (CIGS) solar module was analyzed. The CIGS/Mo junction becomes ohmic-contact by MoSe₂, so the formation of the MoSe₂ layer is essential. However, the CIGS solar module has a TCO/MoSe₂/Mo junction in the P2 region due to structural differences from the cell. The contact resistance (R_C) of the P2 region was calculated using the transmission line method, and MoSe₂ was confirmed to increase R_C of the TCO/Mo junction. B doped ZnO (BZO) was used as TCO, and when BZO/MoSe₂ junction was formed, conduction band offset (CBO) of 0.6 eV was generated due to the difference in their electron affinities. It is expected that this CBO acts as a carrier transport barrier that disturbs the flow of current, resulting in increased R_C. In order to reduce the R_C caused by CBO, MoSe₂ must be made thin in a CIGS solar module.

The oxo-nitrosyl complexes (n-Bu4N)2[M4O12Mo(NO)2{RC(NH2)NHO}2{RC(NH)NO}2] (M=Mo, W; R=(CH3)2CH, n-CH3CH2CH2) have been prepared by the reactions of monomeric complex containing {Mo(NO)2}2+ and polyoxometalates with isobutyl- and n-butylamidoxime. The prepared complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and UV-visible spectroscopy. These complexes contain two {M2O5}2+ [M=Mo, W] cores and a central {Mo(NO)2}2+ core. The {Mo(NO)2}2+ unit was the formally cis type and C2v symmetry in geometric structure. The two {M2O5}2+ cores and a central {Mo(NO)2}2+ core were not nearly interacted with electronic localization, which were identified by spectroscopy.
