In order to improve the brightness and chromaticity of green emitting low voltage phosphor for FED, we examine PL, PLE and CL emission characteristics of ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O prepared in Ar and vacuum. ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O sintered in vacuum shows about 16 times as bright as the one fabricated in Ar and excellent chromaticity. In PL emission spectra of ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O at low temperature of 9 K, two peaks are observed at 504 nm and 513 nm. At room temperature, the two peaks are superimposed due to the lattice thermal vibrational energy, and only one peak is observed at 509 nm. From PLE measurements, it is believed that the energy levels of the host lattice and Mn ions are coexisted. The energy transfer from the host lattice to the emission center of Mn$^{2+}$ ions occurs.s.

In this study, $0.95(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_3$-0.05Li$(Sb_{0.8}Nb_{0.2})O_3$ + $Ag_2O$ + x wt% $MnO_2$ were investigated as a function of the amount of $MnO_2$ addition in order to improve dielectric and piezoelectric properties of Lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. With increasing the amount of $MnO_2$ addition, density and electromechanical coupling factor $(k_p)$ increased up to 0.3wt.% $MnO_2$ and decreased above 0.3wt.% $MnO_2$. At the sintering temperature of 1020 $^{\circ}C$, Electromechanical coupling factor $(k_p)$, density, dielectric constant $({\varepsilon}r)$ and mechanical quality factor $(Q_m)$ of composition ceramics with 0.4wt% $Ag_2O$ addition showed the optimal value of 0.431, 4.33 g/$cm^3$, 820 and 119, respectively.

$Mn_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ powders have been fabricated by using sol-gel methods; their crystallographic and magnetic properties were investigated by using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer. The $Mn_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ ferrite powders annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ had a single spinel structure regardless of the $Mn^{2+}$-doping amount and their lattice constants became larger as the $Mn^{2+}$ concentration was increased. Their Mossbauer spectra measured at room temperature were fitted with 2 Zeeman sextets due to the tetrahedral and octahedral sites of Fe ions, which made them ferrimagnetic. The magnetic behavior of $Mn_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ powders showed that the $Mn^{2+}$-doping amount made their saturation magnetization increase, but there were no severe effects on their coercivities. The saturation magnetization of the $Mn_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ powder varied from 38 emu/g to 70.0 emu/g and their minimum coercivity was 111.1 Oe.

The spinel structured $LiMn_2O_4$was obtained by two consecutive heat treatment on xerogel; the first heat treatment was at $150^{\circ}C$ and the second at $350^{\circ}C$ was obtained by sol-gel process using an aqueous solution of lithium hydroxide and manganese acetate. The synthesized $LiMn_2O_4$ by the sol-gel process showed a discharge capacity of 88~56 mAh/g after 15 cycles in Li/lM $LiClO_4$(in PC)/$LiMn_2O_4$at a current density of 0.25 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the voltage ranged 3.5 V to 4.3 V. For the second heat treatment above $350^{\circ}C$, $Mn_2O_3$was formed as a by-product during the synthesis of $LiMn_2O_4$. The heat treatment at $500^{\circ}C$, for example, showed a lower discharge capacity 81~47 mAh/g, after the 15 charge/discharge cycles. The lower capacity was due to the increment of $Mn^{3+}$ ion and this phenomenon was in agreement with the Jahn-Teller distortion.

Li-Mn spinel의 고온수영 특성을 향상을 위해 졸-겔법으로 $V_2O_5$를 Li-Mn spinel 표면에 코팅을 하였다. $V_2O_5$의 코팅양은 1, 3, 5wt%로 조절하여 코팅 양에 따른 특성변화를 조사하였다. XRD분석결과 $V_2O_5$가 코팅된 Li-Mn spinel을 $400^{\circ}C$에서 열처리시 $Mn(VO_3)_2$가 생성되는 것을 확인하였다. 충방전 테스트결과, 고온에서 $V_2O_5$를 코팅한 Li-Mn spinel이 우수한 수명을 나타냈다. 하지만 코팅량이 1wt%까지는 용량의 변화가 거의 없었고, 5wt% 코팅시 현격히 용량이 감소하였다.

In order to investigate the mold reaction characteristics of Mn steel and Cr steel castings individually, the mold reaction products were examined by scanning electron microscopy, electron prove microanalyzer and X-ray diffractometer. From this experiment, the results were summarized as follows: 1) The mold reaction depth increased with increase of Mn content, while it decreased with increase of Cr content. 2) Mold reaction depth decreased with Mn content at $1200^{\circ}C$. 3) Mn, among the reaction products, forms a low fusion silicate, Mn $O.SiO_2$ while Cr forms a stable oxide, $CrO_3$ which hindering the reaction between FeO and $SiO_2$ thus the formation of $FeO.SiO_2$ was depressed.

A study on the endothermic peak of transformation of the pyrolusite was made by using differential thermal curves for analytical reproducibility, and it was done in quantity on range from 50 mg to 450 mg of pyrolusite species. The separation of ${\alpha}-MnO_2$ peak was impossible due to the overlapping between $\alpha$ and pyrolusite peaks, and the pyrolusite was determined among the species, ${\gamma}-MnO_2$ and ${\delta}-MnO_2$, with an error ranging from $5{\%}$ to $10{\%}$.

A simple and rapid electrochemical method for the quantitative analysis of $Mn^{2+}$ ion is demonstrated with a view to examine the $Mn^{2+}$ dissolution behavior of $LiMn_2O_4$. The method described herein is based on the oxidation reaction of $Mn^{2+}$ to $Mn^{4+}(MnO_2)$ in aqueous buffer solution. Under the optimum condition (pH 8.9 0.04 M $NH_3-NH_4Cl$ buffer solution and glassy carbon working electrode), the linear range of $5{\mu}M-100{\mu}M$ (0.275-5.5 ppm) [$Mn^{2+}$] is obtained for the Linear sweep voltammetry(LSV) and $0.2{\mu}M-10{\mu}M$ (0.011-0.55 ppm) [$Mn^{2+}$] for the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), respectively. It is also noted that the oxidation reaction of $Mn^{2+}$ ion is reduced with increasing amount of the electrolyte ($LiPF_6$, EC, EMC) added to the measuring solution, which is found to be mainly due to $LiPF_6$ and EC rather than EMC.

Gd1-xSrxMnO3(0$\leq$X$\leq$0.6) as the cathode for solid oxide fuel cell was synthesized by citrate process and studied for its crystal structure, electrical conductivity, thermal expansion coefficient (TEC), and investigated reactivity with 8 mol% yttria stabilized zirconia(8YSZ) or Ce0.8Gd0.2O1.9 (CGO). The crystal structure of Gd1-xSrxMnO3 changed from orthorhombic (0$\leq$X$\leq$0.3) through cubic (0.4$\leq$X$\leq$0.5) to tetragonal structure (X=0.6). When Sr contents was increased, the electrical conductivity of Gd1-xSrxMnO3 was inthose of La1-xSrxMnO3, 8YSZ and CGO if Sr content was above 30mol%. TEC of Gd1-xSrxMnO3 was increased with Sr content. After heat treatment at 1300$^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours, reaction product of Gd1-xSrxMnO3 and 8YSZ was SrZrO3. However CGO had no reaction product with Gd1-xSrxMnO3.
