The present work explores the effect of carbon-supported platinum catalyst on the HI decomposition using gas adsorption analyzer, thermogravimetry, X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, and gas chromatography. For this purpose, three types of activated carbon (C), Pt/C-1 wt.%, and Pt/C-5 wt.% were prepared. The HI gas conversion is crucially influenced by the amount of Pt on the carbon support. The more the amount of Pt was, the higher results in the HI gas conversion. For three types of catalysts, HI conversion increased with increasing the decomposition temperature but with decreasing the space velocity. The increase of HI conversion with temperature was more pronounced in activated carbon than that in Pt/C. From EDX result, it was found that the activated carbon comprised higher amount of iodine than the Pt/C after the decomposition reaction. This implies that the HI conversion is closely related to the amount of Iodine.

The Pt/C and Pd/C catalysts were prepared from conventional chloride precursors by adsorption or precipitation-deposition methods. Their activities for hydrogenation reactions of cyclohexene and acetophenone were compared with those of commercial catalysts. The Pt/C and Pd/C catalysts obtained from the adsorption procedure reveal higher hydrogenation activity than commercial catalysts and the catalysts prepared by the precipitation-deposition method. Their improved performances are attributed to the decreased metal crystallite sizes of Pt or Pd formed on the active carbon support upon the adsorption of the precursors probably due to the same negative charges of the chloride precursor and the carbon support. Under the preparation conditions studied, the reduction of the supported catalysts using borohydrides in liquid phase is superior to a gas phase reduction by using hydrogen in the viewpoint of particle size, hydrogenation activity and convenience.

Hydrogen-sensing behaviors of Pd- and Pt-SiC Schottky diodes, fabricated on the same SiC substrate, have been systematically compared and analyzed as a function of hydrogen concentration and temperature by I-V and$\DeltaI-t$ methods under steady-state and transient conditions. The effects of hydrogen adsorption on the device parameters such as the barrier height are investigated. The significant differences in their hydrogen sensing characteristics have been examined in terms of sensitivity limit, linearity of response, response rate, and response time. For the investigated temperature range, Pd-SiC Schottky diode shows better performance for H2 detection than Pt-SiC Schottky diode under the same testing conditions. The physical and chemical mechanisms responsible for hydrogen detection are discussed. Analysis of the steady-state reaction kinetics using I-V method confirmed that the atomistic hydrogen process is responsible for the barrier height change in the diodes.

Investigation was carried out lean burn de-NOx properties of Pt-$TiO_2$ bifunctional catalyst by propylene in order to get the high de-NOx activity and the wide temperature window under coexistence of $SO_2$ and $H_2O$. Only noncatalyst and carrier catalyst themselves had NOx conversion activity at high temperature over $400^{\circ}C$. NOx conversion activity of catalysts exchanged copper ion resulted in Cu-$TiO_2$>Cu-ZSM-5>Cu-$Al_2O_3$>CU-YZ>Cu-AZ. Catalysts impregnated with platinum based on titania gave the results of high NOx conversion activity at low temperature. $250^{\circ}C$. Bifunctional catalysts based on Pt-$TiO_2$ showed high NOx conversion activity both at a low zone of $300^{\circ}C$ and a high zone of $500^{\circ}C$. Pt-$TiO_2$/$Al_2O_3$ catalyst gave the highest NOx conversion activity at a low temperature zone. and Pt-$TiO_2$/$Mn_2O_3$(21) catalyst gave the highest NOx conversion activity at a high temperature zone. Under the coexistence of $SO_2$ and $H_2O$. NOx conversion activities of 0.55wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/5wt%Cu-ZSM-5 catalyst was high both at a low and high temperature zone, and increased depending on oxygen concentration. 0.55wt%Pt-$TiO_2$/5wt%Cu-ZSM-5 catalyst showed the best correlation between de-NOx activities and the propyl ere conversion rates to CO on the log function.

The Mn$\_$80/Ir$\_$18.1/Pt$\_$1.9/ exchange bias layers (EBLs), which have a small amounts of Pt, exhibit a high value of H$\_$ex/. The Si/Ni-Fe/Mn$\_$80/Ir$\_$18.1/Pt$\_$1.9/ EBL shows the largest H$\_$ex/ of 187 Oe, which is equivalent to a exchange energy (J$\_$ex/) of 0.146 erg/cm$^2$. Mn$\_$80/Ir$\_$18.1/Pt$\_$1.9/ EBLS are estimated to have blocking temperature of about 250 $\^{C}$, which is higher than those of Mn-Ir EBLs and Mn-Ir-Pt EBLs with higher Pt contents. This result implies that a little addition of Pt element promotes thermal stability in the Mn-Ir-Pt EBLs. The chemical stability of Mn-Ir-Pt EBLs was characterized by potentiodynamic test, which was performed in 0.001 M NaCl solution. The current density of Mn-Ir-Pt films was gradually reduced with increasing Pt content. The present results indicate that the Mn-Ir-Pt with a small amount of Pt is suitable for an antiferromagnetic material for a reliable spin valve giant magnetoresistance device.

The 20% Pt/C catalysts were synthesized using the chemical reduction method for polymer electrolyte fuel cell cathode and were heat-treated in the temperature range from 300 to $600^{\circ}C$. The oxygen reduction reaction of the catalysts was evaluated using the electrochemical measurement. The oxygen reduction reaction of the heat-treated Pt/C at $300^{\circ}C$ had high catalytic activity and the oxygen reduction reaction current of that was 2 times than that of non-heat treatment catalyst. It is considered that the change of the crystallinity and particle size by heat treatment could increase the catalytic activity.

Ohmic contacts have been fabricated on p-type 4H-SiC using Pt/Ti. Low resistivitf Ohmic contacts of Pt/Ti to p-type 4H-SiC were investigated. Specific contact resistances were measured using the transmission line model method, and the physical properties of the contacts were examined using x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy. Ohmic behavior with linear current-voltage characteristics was observed following anneals at $900^{\circ}C$ for 90sec at a pressure of $3.4{\times}10^{-5}$ Torr. The Pt/Si/Ti films was measured lower value of the specific contact resistance by the annealing process, and the contact resistances were improved more than one order compared to Ti contact the annealed sample. Scanning electron microscopy shows that the Pt layer effectively reduce the oxidation of Ti films. And results are obtained as $4.6{\times}10^{-4}$ ohm/$cm^2$ for a Pt/Ti metal structure after a vacuum annealing at $900^{\circ}C$ for 90sec. Titanium has a relatively high melting point, thus Ti-based metal contacts were attempted in this study.

Piezoelectric properties of O.9PMN-0.1PT relaxor ferroe1ectrics were investigated in the temperature range of $-40^{\circ}C~$100^{\circ}C$. After poled at $-40^{\circ}C$, electro-mechanical properties of the samples were measured by resonance antiresonance method. As the resonance behavior was shown in impedance spectrum obtained below $0^{\circ}C$, it can be c conduded that 0.9PMN-0.1PT is bona-fide ferroelectrics below the phase transition temperature. It is very noteworthy that electro-mechanical resonance occurs at the temperatures far above the phase transition temperature. It is coneluded that ferroelectricity in 0.9PMN-0.1PT relaxor were verified far above the phase transition temperature.

60% Pt on Vulcan XC-72 with similar Pt sizes to fuel cell grade Pt black was investigated by $\^$13/C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), cyclic voltammery (CV), transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Experiments were carried out on electrochemically cleaned samples as well as as-received. The TEM and CV results showed that the average particle sizes were changed by cleaning. However, the chemical shift （$\delta$$\_$G/） of $\^$13/C of $\^$13/CO absorbed on Pt surfaces did not show any appreciable variation with particle size change as did in Pt black. These results indicate that a combination of different analytic techniques is essential to understand the properties of the metal particle catalysts and that the presence of carbon black support strongly influences the NMR data, probably through metal-support interaction.
