Microwave properties of $CaTiO_{3}$, MgO and CaO added $MgTiO_{3}$ ceramics are investigated. In the composition of $(Mg_{0.915}Ca_{0.085})TiO_3$, dielectric constant($varepsilon _T$) was 22, Qxf value was 50000, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency($gamma_T$) approached to near zero $ppm/^{\circ}C$.$MgTiO_{3}$ ceramics with 0.1 mol of MgO showed the highest Qxf calue of 131000, dielectric constant of 17, and r, of -$50ppm/^{\circ}C$. Dielectric constant of 8 mol% CaO added to $MgTiO_{3}$-MgO was 20. Qxf valus was 52000, and sf was zero $ppm/^{\circ}C$. $MgTiO_{3}$-Mg0-Ca0 system showed higher Qxf value than ($Mg_{1-x}, Ca_x$) Ti03 system.

Variables affecting the passivation capability of Cu(Mg) alloy films, which were sputter deposited from a Cu (4.5 at. %) target, have been investigated. The results show that the passivation capability of a Cu(Mg) alloy film is a function of annealing temperature, $O_2$ pressure, and Mg content in the film. Increasing the annealing temperature up to $500^{\circ}C$ favors formation of a dense MgO layer on the surface which has a growth limited thickness of 150 $\AA$. Decreasing the $O_2$ pressure enhances the preferential oxidation of Mg over Cu. Furthermore, increasing the Mg content in the Cu(Mg) film promotes formation of a dense MgO layer. Vacuum pre-annealing was found to be very effective in segregating Mg to the surface, facilitating the passivation capability of the Cu(Mg) alloy film even when the Mg content is low. In the current study, self-aligned MgO layers with low resistivity and an effective passivation capability over the Cu surface, have been obtained by manipulating these factors when Cu(Mg) thin films are annealed.

MgO clinker and two kinds of dolomite clinkers with different microstructures and CaO contents were used as starting materials, and the effects of Fe2O3 addition on the properties of MgO and dolomite were investigated in the range of 2 to 8 wt% of Fe2O3 content. Secondary phases contributed to densification of MgO-Fe2O3 and dolomite-Fe2O3 were magnesioferrite and dicalciumferrite, respectively. Sinterabilities of MgO-Fe2O3 and dolomite-Fe2O3 were directly proportional to the amount of secondary phases. Also, sinterability of dolomite itself was dependent on the microstructure of starting material including distribution of CaO and MgO as well as the addition amount of Fe2O3. The flexural strength of MgO-Fe2O3 content was almost constant. The hydration resistance of dolomite with large size of MgO and discontinuous distribution of CaO was higher than that of dolomite with small size of MgO and continuous distribution of CaO. Also, the minimum content of Fe2O3 to prevent they hydration of dolomite was about 4wt%. As increasing Fe2O3 content, the penetration resistance of MgO-Fe2O3 was improved by the increment of magnesioferrite. On the other hand, the penetration resistance of dolomite-Fe2O3 was decreased because of the increment of dicalciumferrite having low melting point.

MgO concrete containing lightly burnt MgO powder at $850{\sim}1,000^{\circ}C$ may have a long-term expansibility characteristic. Such expansibility of MgO concrete can compensate the shrinkage at later ages since the hydration of the MgO is very slow. However, the addition of MgO delays the initial hydration of cement and increases the setting time of cement. Also, the porosity and pore-size distribution of the MgO concrete are different from OPC concrete. Therefore, in order to use MgO in practice, both mechanical and durability properties of MgO concrete should be carefully examined. In this study, durability tests on carbonation, freezing-thawing, and diffusion of chloride were carried out after 56 days of underwater curing at $20^{\circ}C$ to compare durability characteristics of 5% MgO-mixed concrete with those of OPC concrete. The results showed that MgO concrete shows a greater durability than the concrete with no MgO, because the micro structure in the MgO concrete is much denser due to its expansibility characteristic.

We obtained sputtering yields for the MgO, $MgAl_2O_4$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ films using the FIB system. $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ protective layers have been found to have less $24^{\sim}^30%$ sputtering yield values from 0.24 atoms/ion up to 0.36 atoms/ion than MgO layers with the values from 0.36 atoms/ion up to 0.45 atoms/ion for irradiated $Ga^+$ ion beam whose energies ranged from 10 keV to 14 keV. And $MgAl_2O_4$ layers have been found to have lowest sputtering yield values from 0.88 up to 0.11. It is also found that $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ and MgO have secondary electron emission $coefficient({\gamma})$ values from 0.09 up to 0.12 for $Ne^+$ ion whose energies ranged from 50 eV to 200 eV.

MgO or gadolinium-doped ceria (GDC, $Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-{\delta}}$) was added as a promoter to improve the oxygen transfer kinetics of $MgMnO_3$ oxygen carrier material for chemical looping combustion. Neither MgO nor GDC reacted with $MgMnO_3$, even at the high temperature of $1100^{\circ}C$. The average oxygen transfer capacities of $MgMnO_3$, 5 wt% $MgO-MgMnO_3$, and 5 wt% $GDC-MgMnO_3$ were 8.74, 8.35, and 8.13 wt%, respectively. Although the addition of MgO or GDC decreased the oxygen transfer capacity, no further degradation was observed during their use in 5 redox cycles. The addition of GDC significantly improved the conversion rate for the reduction reaction of $MgMnO_3$ compared to the use of MgO due to an increase in the surface adsorption process of $CH_4$ via oxygen vacancies formed on the surface of GDC. On the other hand, the conversion rates for the oxidation reaction followed the order 5 wt% $GDC-MgMnO_3$ > 5 wt% $MgO-MgMnO_3$ >> $MgMnO_3$ due to morphological change. MgO or GDC particles suppressed the grain growth of the reduced $MgMnO_3$ (i.e., (Mg,Mn)O) and increased the specific surface area, thereby increasing the number of active reaction sites.

Two dolomite samples mined from the different mines were calcined using a batch-type microwave kiln ($950/60min^{\circ}C$) to produce $CaO{\cdot}MgO$. The hydration of the $CaO{\cdot}MgO$ samples shows different reactivity. MgO was separated by reacting with a strong acid cation exchange resin using the reactivity of the hydration properties of light dolomite ($CaO{\cdot}MgO$). Calcium ($Ca-(R-SO_3)_2$) was separated from the prepared $CaO{\cdot}MgO$ by the cation exchange resin ($CaO{\cdot}MgO:R-SO_3H=1:12mass%$). High purity MgO (higher than 94 mass %) with unburned $CaCO_3$ (1~2 mass %) was obtained by the separation process. The separated MgO was heated at $950^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes to afford high purity MgO with MgO content higher than 96%. And High-grade $CaCO_3$ was prepared from the reaction with calcium adsorbed resin ($Ca-(R-SO_3)_2$) and NaOH, $CO_2$ gas.

A study on the deposition and characterization of BaTiO3 thin films on MgO-buffered Si(100) substrates by sputtering was conducted. The MgO buffer layers were investigated as a function of deposition temperature. At lower substrate temperature, the MgO layers were not fully crystalline, but a crystallized MgO layer with (001) preferred orientation was obtained at the substrate temperature of $700^{\circ}C$. Partially (00ι) or (h00) textured BaTiO3 films were obtained on Si(100) with the MgO buffer layer grown at 700ι. While, randomly oriented BaTiO3 films with large-scale cracks on the surface were made without the MgO layer. The crystallographic orientation, morphology and electrical properties between the BaTiO3 films on Si with and without the MgO layer were compared using the BaTiO3 film on MgO(100) single crystal substrate as a reference system. Also the favorable role of the MgO layer as a buffer for growing of oriented BaTiO3 films on Si substrates was confirmed.

Congruent $LiNbO_3$ single crystals and $LiNbO_3$ : Mg single crystals, having high resistance to optical damage, doped with MgO to the levels of 2.0, 5.0 and 7.0 mol% were grown successfully by CZ method and optical damage of each crystal was measured by compen. sation method. With doping level reaching about 5 mol%, there was an abrupt change in the features of optical absorption edge and $OH^-$ absorption band. From these data, we confirmed indirectly the threshold in MgO doping level. When the MgO doping amount reaches about 5 mol% in the melt, $Mg^{2+}$ occupies Nb site and becomes $Mg_{Nb}^{2+}$, resulting in the sharp increase of optical damage resistance. The optical damage resistance of $LiNbO_3$ : Mg was improved more than three times when MgO amount in the melt reaches 5 mol%.

Concrete containing lightly burnt MgO has long term expansibility. It also could compensate for the thermal shrinkage of mass concrete, because the hydration of MgO proceeds at a slow pace to long-term age. Thus, lightly burnt MgO has been applied to the construction of mass concrete such as dams. Recently, the expansion characteristics of MgO concrete with fly ash that could be applied to mass concrete for the reduction of hydration heat have been studied and however, limited studies on its durability. This study investigates the long-term durability characteristics of fly ash concrete with lightly burnt MgO. The durability tests on carbonation, freezing-thawing, diffusion of chloride, and resistance to sulfate attack were carried out for MgO concrete with curing for 360 days in submerged condition with different temperature of 20 and $50^{\circ}C$. The results reveal that MgO concrete shows a greater resistance of carbonation, diffusion of chloride, and resistance to sulfate attack. On the other hand the resistance of freezing-thawing was little influenced by MgO powder.
