The use of an activated carbon (AC) system alone has the limitation that the pollutants are not eliminated but only transferred to another phase with the consumed AC becoming hazardous waste itself. Therefore, the present study investigated the feasibility of using a combined system of granular AC (GAC) with S-doped visible-light-induced $TiO_2$ (GAC/S-doped $TiO_2$) to clean monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (MAHs) with concentrations at $\leq$ 3 mg $m^{-3}$, using a continuous air-flow reactor. This study conducted three different experiments: an adsorption test of pure GAC and GAC/S-doped $TiO_2$; a long-term adsorptional photocatalytic (AP) activity test of GAC/S-doped $TiO_2$; and an AP activity test of GAC/S-doped $TiO_2$ under different conditions. For the AP activity test, three parameters were evaluated: various weights of GAC/S-doped $TiO_2$ (0.9, 4.4, and 8.9 g); various flow rates (FRs) (0.5, 1 and 2 L $min^{-1}$); and various input concentrations (ICs) of the target MAHs (0.1, 1, 2 and 3 mg $m^{-3}$). The adsorption efficiencies were similar for the pure GAC and GAC/S-doped $TiO_2$ reactors, suggesting that S-doped $TiO_2$ particles on GAC surfaces do not significantly interfere with the adsorption capacity of GAC. Benzene exhibited a clear AP activity, whereas no other target MAHs did. In most cases, the AP efficiencies for the target MAHs did not significantly vary with an increase in weight, thereby suggesting that, under the weight range tested in this study, the weights or FRs are not important parameters for AP efficiency. However, ICs did influence the AP efficiencies.

The dark current and photocurrent(PC) spectrum of Mg-doped GaN thin film were investigated with various bias voltages and temperatures. At high temperature and small bias, the dark current is dominated by holes thermally activated from an acceptor level Al located at about 0.16 eV above the valence band maximum $(E_v)$, The PC peak originates from the electron transition from deep level A2 located at about 0.34 eV above the $E_v$ to the conduction band minimum $(E_ C)$. However, at a large bias voltage, holes thermally activated from A2 to Al experience the field-in-duces tunneling to form one-dimensional defect band at Al, which determines the dark current. The PC peak associated with the transition from Al to $E_ C$ is also observed at large bias voltages owing to the extended recombination lifetime of holes by the tunneling. In the near infrared region, a strong PC peak at 1.20 eV appears due to the hole transition from deep donor/acceptor level to the valence band.

$LiNbO_{3}$ single crystals (undoped, 5 mol% MgO-doped and 5 mol% ZnO-doped) were grown by the floating zone method which has the characteristics of a compositional homogeneity and uniform distribution of the dopants. The optimum growth condition was established experimentally and the defect structures such as domain structure, dislocation structure, slip band, and microtwins were characterized using a microscopic method.

ZnSe, ZnSe:Ho/sup 3+/, Mg/sub x/Zn/sub 1-x/Se and Mg/sub x/Zn/sub 1-x/Se:Ho/sup 3+/ crystals were grown by the chemical transport reaction method. The crystal structures and optical energy band gaps of the single crystals were investigated. Their photoluminescence(PL) spectra were measured at 10 [K]. Sharp emission peaks in the blue-green wavelength range and broad emission peaks in the yellow-red wavelength range were observed. The single crystals doped with 1.0 [mol%] of holmium did not show the sharp emission peaks because of defects which were thought to be originated to the holmium dopant.

Undoped and 5mol%MgO DOPED {{{{ { LiNbO}_{ 3} }}}} were grown by floating zone method. The grown crystals were poled to c-azis in different electric conditions. Ferroelectric domain patterns related to the poling conditions were investigated by chemical etching and the poling effects on the piezoelectric in the undoped and MgO doped Crystals were studied.

Single phase $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ ceramics doped by 10 mol% of electron donors such as $La^3,\; Pr^{3+,4+},\; Nd^{3+},\; Sm^{3+}$, were synthesized and their B-site cationic ordering structures were investigated by XRD and TEM. In the XRD patterns, only fundamental reflections were observed for the undoped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$, while the (h/2 $\textsc{k}$/2ι/2)(h,$\textsc{k}$,ι all odd) superlattice reflections resulting from the 1:1 ordering induced unit cell doubling were also observed for the donor-doped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. In the TEM selected area diffraction patterns, the (h/2 k/2 l/2)(h,k,l all odd) superlattice reflection spots as well as the fundamental reflection spots were observed for all the samples, but the relative intensities of the superlattice reflection spots to the fundamental reflection spots were significantly enhanced by the donor-doping. In the TEM dark-field images, antiphase boundaries were observed only for the donor-doped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. It was therefore experimentally verified that doping by electron donors such as $La^3,\; Pr^{3+,4+},\; Nd^{3+},\; Sm^{3+}$, enhances the B-site cationic 1:1 ordering in $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. These experimental results were interpreted in terms of the charge compensation mechanism.

The electrical and optical properties of the annealed $LiNbO_{3}$ single crystal with congruently melting composition and MgO or ZnO doped $LiNbO_{3}$ single crystal grown by the FZ method. The electrical and optical properties such as electrical conductivity, dielectric constant (Curie temperature), electro-mechanical coupling factor, optical transmittance and refractive indices of the grown crystals were measured and the nonlinear refractive indices of the grown crystals were calculated theoretically. The doping effects of MgO and ZnO were investigated by comparing the electrical and optical properties of the undoped $LiNbO_{3}$ single crystal and those of the $LiNbO_{3}$ single crystals doped with MgO or ZnO.

0.5 wt%Nb-doped SrTiO3(Nb: STO) thin film was prepared on MgO(100) single crystal substrates by Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD). The Crystallinity and the orientation of Nb:STO thin films were characterized by XRD with changing the thin film processing condition-oxygen partial pressure, substrate temperature, deposition time and the distance between target and substrate. The orientation of Nb:STO thin film showed (100), (110) and (111) orientations at the substrate temperature of $700^{\circ}C$. The lattice parameter of Nb:STO decreased with increasing Po2 and showed 0.3905 nm at Po2=100 Pa, which was similar to that of the bulk. The thickness of Nb:STO thin film increased with increasing the deposition time and with decreasing the distance between target and substrate.

In this study, we investigated the impurity effect of $Ga_2O_3$ doped thin film by simple doping method using Mg acetate solution. Both undoped $Ga_2O_3$ thin films and Mg-doped $Ga_2O_3$ thin films were grown on Si substrates at 600 and $900^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes by means of a customized MOCVD method. As a result of the surface analysis, there were no obvious morphological differences by Mg impurity implantation. The surface of the thin film grown at $900^{\circ}C$ was rougher than those grown at $600^{\circ}C$ and polycrystallization was achieved. As a result of the optical property analysis, in the case of the doped sample, the overall emission peak was red shifted and the UV radiation intensity was increased. As a result of the I-V curve, the leakage current of the $600^{\circ}C$ growth thin film decreased by the Mg impurity and the photocurrent of the growth thin film of $900^{\circ}C$ increased.
