$TiO_2$ is widely being used as a semiconductor electrode for DSSC. Anti-recombination property and surface area of $TiO_2$ give an important influence to the DSSC efficiency. In this study, $TiO_2$ electrode was fabricated on FTO using screen printing method. Various overlayers were coated on them by dip coating in solution of saturated $Ba(NO_3)_2$, $Mg(NO_3)_2$ and $N_{2}O_{6}Sr$. They reduced the recombination of electrons from photo excited state of Ru dye. The atmospheric plasma treatment was applied to both the $TiO_2$ and each overlayer coated $TiO_2$ surfaces to improve contact ability with dye. We prepared four samples, one sample has bare $TiO_2$ surfaces to improve contact ability with dye. We prepared four samples, one sample has bare $TiO_2$ electrode and the other samples consist of each overlayer coated $TiO_2$ electrodes. We used XRD, FE-SEM, J-V, IPCE and EIS in order to investigate characteristic.

The surface collective modes of thin K films deposited on Al(111) have been investigated using frequency dependent photoyield measurements and momentum resolved inelastic electron scattering. Jellium based theoretical calculations have predicted a richer set of features in the thin films than for the surface of a semi-infinite solid because there are th interference between two interfaces (substrate-film and film-vacuum) and heavy damping on the substrate. The use of an optical probe and electron scattering has allowed us to draw a more complete picture of the dynamic screening in thin films. The number, dispersion, damping and optical activity of the collective modes of the thin films have been measured as a function of K film thickness. New overlayer-induced excitations are observed : At qII=0, they correspond to the antisymmetric slab mode and the multipole surface plasmon. At finite qII=0, these modes undergo a transition towards the K multipole and monopole surface plasmons. With increasing coverage, the overlayer excitations turn into the collective modes of semi-infinite K. For a consistent interpretation of photoyield and electron energy loss spectra it is crucial to account for the non-analytic dispersion of the overlayer modes at small parallel wave vectors and for the finite angular resolution of the detector. The observed dispersions confirm predictions based on the time-dependent density functional approach.

$TiO_2$ hollow nanoparticles (HNPs) and their light scattering effect which influences on the photoelectric conversion efficiency of a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) were investigated. When only HNPs were employed in DSSC as the anode layer material, the conversion efficiency (e.g., 0.96%) was the lowest, possibly due to scattering loss of incident light. However, DSSC fabricated by using HNPs as a scattering overlayer on the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles (P-25), showed higher conversion efficiency (4.02%) than that without using HNPs (3.36%).

The Plasma Transferred Arc (PTA) overlay welding method is lately introduced as one of the most useful surface overlay method of the engine component. In this paper, the overlay welding on the SNCrW heat resisting alloy was conducted by the PTA overlay welding process using the super alloy powder. The characteristics of the overlay layers were investigated through the metallurgical and abrasive test. Experimental results showed that the overlay on the SNCrW heat resisting alloy surface was successfully made without hot cracking. The friction wear characteristics of the Co-base Stellite 6 overlayer were most superior. However the abrasive wear characteristics were most inferior in the Co-base Stellite 6 overlayer.

투과 전자 현미경(TEM)을 사용하여 소성 후 Pt와 $MoO_3$ 표면 위에 $MoO_x$ 박막층이 형성되는 것을 조사하였다. 연속된 CO 화학 흡착법에 의하여 표면된 노출된 Pt 표면적의 변화를 관찰하였으며, XPS 분석으로 부터 Pt 표면에 형성된 $MoO_x$ 박막층 두께는 소성 온도 증가에 따라 증가하는 것으로 측정되었다. 소성 과정은 Pt와 $MoO_3$ 간에 개선된 접촉을 유도하였으며, Pt/$MoO_3$ 촉매에서 수소전이현상을 조절하는 것으로 나타난다.

In this talk, our recent progress in experiment study on microscopic surface phonons has been reviewed. After the brief introduction concerning the concept of surface phonons, exprimental apparatus of HREELS and the principle of the measurment for surface phonon dispersions, I show the experimental data of some solide surfaces. The following points are discussed ; (1) lattice dynamical analysis of the phonon dispersions of some transi tion metal carbide (100) surfaces indicates the large changes in the force constant near the surface, which is consistent wi th a rippled structure of a topmost layer. (2) the phonon dispersions of a graphite overlayer show the modified phonon structure, which indicates that the thickness of the overlayer is one atomic layer, and in addition, the electronic structure is also modified. (3) The phonon structure of $LaB_6$ (100) surface is discussed. Lastly I telJ about new technology of extreme high vaccum less than $10^{-10}$ Pa.EX> Pa.

The Plasma Transferred Arc (PTA) overlaying method is lately introduced as one of the most useful surface modification method of the engine component. In this paper, the characteristics of the Co-base and Ni-base super alloy overlay layers by PTA method were investigated through the metallurgical, abrasive and cavitation erosion test. Experimental results showed that the abrasive wear resistance of the Co-base Stellite 6 overlayer was the most superior and followed in order of Nimonic 80A, Inconel 625 and Inconel 718. However, the cavitation erosion characteristic of the Stellite 6 overlayer was the most inferior and it was better in order of Inconel 625, Inconel 718 and Nimonic 80A.
