$Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(OTf)\;(OTf=CF_3SO_3^-)$ readily reacts with various amines to afford cationic amine complexes $[Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(amine)](OTf)\;(amine=NH_3,\;NHMe_2,\;NHC_4H_8,\;NH_2Ph,\;NH_2(Tol-p))$ in high yields. These complexes have been fully characterized by IR, $^1H-,\;^{19}F{^1H}-,\;and\;^{31}P{^1H}-NMR$ spectroscopy, and elemental analyses. Reaction of $Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(OTf)$ with acrylonitrile quantitatively produced the ${\pi}$-olefinic complex $Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(CH_2=CHCN)](OTf)$ which is only stable in solution in the presence of acrylonitrile. Attempt at isolating this complex in the pure solid state was failed due to partial decomposition into $Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(OTf)$ The equilibrium constants $(K_{eq}=[Pt(PCP)-(NH_2R)^+][CH_2=CHCN]/[Pt(PCP)(CH_2=CHCN)^+][NH_2R]:\;[Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(CH_2=CHCN)]^++NH_2R{\rightleftarrows}[Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(NH_2R)]^++CH_2=CHCN=Ph,\;p-tolyl)$ were calculated to be 0.28 (for R = Ph) and 3.1 (R = p-tolyl) at $21^{\circ}C$. The relative stability of the ${\sigma}$-donor amine versus the ${\pi}$-olefinic acrylonitrile complex has been found largely dependent upon the amine-basicity $(pK_b)$, implicating that acrylonitrile practically competes with amine in the platinum coordination sphere. On the contrary to the formation of the acrylonitrile complex, no reaction of $Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(OTf)$ with other olefins such as ethylene, styrene and methyl acrylate was observed.

The prohibitively high cost of Pt catalyst might be the biggest barrier for the commercialization of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) of which wide application is expected. Worldwide research efforts for the development of alternative to Pt oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalyst are made recently. One of the important considerations in the catalyst development is durability issue as well as economic aspect. From this point of view, platinum group metals (PGM) except Pt can be a candidate for replacing Pt catalyst because the material properties and the catalytic activity of PGM are expected to be similar to Pt. In contrast to Ir, Rh and Os to which not so much attention has been paid as an ORR catalyst, Pd that is most similar to Pt in terms of material properties and catalytic activity and Ru that is in the form of chalcogenide have been studied intensively. Activity comparison between non-Pt and Pt oxygen reduction catalysts by half cell test using RDE (rotating disk electrode) or PEMFC MEA (membrane electrode assembly) operation indicates that Pd-based catalysts show the most similar activity to Pt. In this paper we analyze the composition of PGM ORR catalyst in literature to promote the development of non-Pt ORR catalyst.

Insoluble anodes of the Ta/Ir mixed metal oxide for electrodeposition of Ni-W alloy in ammoniacal citrate bath were prepared by thermal decomposition method. Ti plate was etched in boiling oxalic acid solution and coated with ethanol solution of $TaCl_{5}$ and $IrCl_4$ mixed in a fixed ratio, followed by drying and treating at various temperatures. The coating layer of these insoluble anode was characterized by SEM, EDX, XRD and DSC. The decomposition rate of citric acid in plating bath was determined by measuring the $CO_2$ gas evolved at the anodes with Gas Chromatography. Evolution of $CO_2$ gas from Ta/Ir oxide anodes decreased about 5% compared with that of Pt. The $CO_2$ gas evolution was increased with the amount of Ir-oxide in the coatings. The coatings which have more than 40% ratio of Ta content and heat-treated at the temperature higher than $400^{\circ}C$ showed better efficiency

Pyroelectric $Pb(Zr_{0.3}Ti_{0.7})O_3$ (PZT30/70) thin film IR detectors has been fabricated and characterised. The PZT30/70 thin film was deposited onto $Pt/Ti/Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si$ substrate by the sol-gel process. Four different substrate conditions were studied for their effects on the pyroelectric responses of the IR detectors. The substrate conditions were the combinations of the Si etching and the Pt/Ti patterning. In the Si etched substrate, the $Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ composite layer was used as silicon etch-stop, and was used as the membrane to support the PZT pyroelectric film element as well. The measured pyroelectric current and voltage responses of detectors fabricated on the micro-machined thin $Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ membrane were two orders higher than those of the detectors on the bulk-silicon. For detectors on the membrane substrate, the Pt/Ti patterned detectors showed a 2-times higher pyroelectric response than that of not-patterned detectors. On the other hand, the pyroelectric response of the detectors on the not-etched Si substrate was almost the same, regardless of the Pt/Ti patterning. It was also found that the rise time strongly depended on the substrate thickness: the thicker the substrate was, the longer the rise-time.

Using the results analyzed by FEM(Finite Element Method). the microheaters with the stress-balanced $Si_3N_4$(150 nm)/$SiO_2$(300 nm)/$Si_3N_4$(150 nm) diaphragms were fabricated by silicon micromachining techniques. Pt was used as microheater materials. Pt temperature sensor was fabricated to measure the temperature of microheaters. Resistance of temperature sensor and power dissipation of microheater were measured and calculated at the various temperatures. The thermal distribution of heater was examined by a IR thermoviewer. Measured and simulated results are compared and analyzed. The temperature coefficient of resistance of heater was about $0.00379/^{\circ}C$. Pt heater showed the power dissipation of about 51 mW at $300^{\circ}C$ and a uniform thermal distribution on the surface.

The catalysts composed of Pt, Pd and W as active-components, $Al_{2}O_{3}$ and $SiO_{2}$ as supports, were perpared on the honeycomb type substrate and characterized by BET, SEM, TGA, FT-IR and XRD for diesel emission control. CO, $C_{3}H_{6}$, and $SO_{2}$ oxidation was carried out over these catalysts in a fixed bed continuous flow reactor at the temperatures between 100-500.deg.C and reactant gas was composed of 10 vol.% $O_{2}$, 1 vol.% CO, 0.8 vol.% $C_{3}H_{6}$ and 88.2 vol.% $N_{2}$. It was found that under these experimental conditions, the CO, $C_{3}H_{6}$ oxidation activity of Pt-W catalyst was higher than that of any other prepared catalyst, and this catalyst had also a good inhibition effect on $SO_{2}$ oxidation. Also it was show that the influence of $SO_{2}$ on $Al_{2}O_{3}$ was more sever than that of $SO_{2}$ on $SiO_{2}$.

Volatile organic compounds(VOCs) are toxic carcinogenic compounds found in wastewater. VOCs require rapid removal because they are easily volatilized during wastewater treatment. Electrochemical advanced oxidation processes(EAOPs) are considered efficient for VOC removal, based on their fast and versatile anodic electrochemical oxidation of pollutants. Many studies have reported the efficiency of removal of various types of pollutants using different anodes, but few studies have examined volatilization of VOCs during EAOPs. This study examined the removal efficiency for VOCs (chloroform, benzene, trichloroethylene and toluene) by oxidization and volatilization under a static stirred, aerated condition and an EAOP to compare the volatility of each compound. The removal efficiency of the optimum anode was determined by comparing the smallest volatilization ratio and the largest oxidization ratio for four different dimensionally stable anodes(DSA): Pt/Ti, $IrO_2/Ti$, $IrO_2/Ti$, and $IrO_2-Ru-Pd/Ti$. EAOP was operated under same current density ($25mA/cm^2$) and electrolyte concentration (0.05 M, as NaCl). The high volatility of the VOCs resulted in removal of more than 90% within 30 min under aerated conditions. For EAOP, the $IrO_2-Ru/Ti$ anode exhibited the highest VOC removal efficiency, at over 98% in 1 h, and the lowest VOC volatilization (less than 5%). Chloroform was the most recalcitrant VOC due to its high volatility and chemical stability, but it was oxidized 99.2% by $IrO_2-Ru/Ti$, 90.2% by $IrO_2-Ru-Pd/Ti$, 78% by $IrO_2/Ti$, and 75.4% by Pt/Ti anodes The oxidation and volatilization ratios of the VOCs indicate that the $IrO_2-Ru/Ti$ anode has superior electrochemical properties for VOC treatment due to its rapid oxidation process and its prevention of bubbling and volatilization of VOCs.

In this work, $IrO_2$thin films as bottom electrode of ferroelectric capacitors were deposited and characterized. The $IrO_2$films deposited in the conditions of 25, 40 and 50% oxygen ambient by sputtering method were annealed at 600, 700 and $800^{\circ}C$, respectively. It was found that the crystallinity and the surface morphology of $IrO_2$films affected the surface properties and electrical properties of SBT thin films prepared by the MOD method. With increasing temperature, the crystallinity and the roughness of $IrO_2$films were also increasing. This increasing of roughness degraded the surface properties and electrical properties of SBT films. We found an optimum condition of $IrO_2$films as bottom electrode for ferroelectric capacitor at 50% oxygen ambient and $600^{\circ}C$ annealing temperature. Electrical characterizations were performed by using$ IrO_2$bottom electrodes grown at an optimum conditions. The remanent polarization ($P_{r}$) of the Pt/SBT/$IrO_2$/$SiO_2$/Si structure was 2.75 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at an applied voltage of 3 V. The leakage current density was $1.06${\times}$10^{-3}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at an applied voltage of 3 V.

We present an experimental study of electrical discharge in nanoscale gaps. The discharge occurred between a cathode made of sharpened Pt-Ir wire and a gold-plated anode. Electric discharges were detected for electric potentials from 10 V to 80 V, and their gaps ranged from 50 nm to 800 nm. The spark signals indirectly showed spark phenomena such as discharges or shortages in the system. The sparks and discharges strongly depended on the electric potential (voltage) and the radius of the tips. For small gaps, the electrical discharge was random and strongly depended on the radius of the cathode tips.

For the separation of aluminum and iron from platinum mixtures, extraction resins were synthesized and separation efficiencies were compared with those by commercial one, $P_{204}$. During synthesis, the suspension polymerization method was adopted with D2EHPA as an extractant. Also, benzoyl peroxide as a starter was divided into 3parts and injected for the uniform size and dispersion of resin particles. Comparison tests resulted in 100% separation of Fe and Pt for both synthetic and $P_{204}$ resins. In case of Al and Pt, synthetic and $P_{204}$ resin gave extraction efficiencies of 99.9% and 98.9%, respectively. Difference in extractant contents of synthetic resin(61.8%) and $P_{204}$(60%) was considered to give differences in separation efficiencies of aluminum and iron elements. For both resins, separation efficiencies of Al and Fe increased up to $55^{\circ}C$. According to FT-IR analyses of both resins, specific peaks of D2EHPA and crosslinked polystyrene were identified at the wavenumber of $1000cm^{-1}$ and $2900cm^{-1}$ respectively.
