In this work the tribological characteristics were compared between ZnO coatings on glass substrate prepared by sputtering and sol-gel methods. In order to assess the effects of processing method on the tribological characteristics, the friction and wear properties of the coatings were measured by using a reciprocating type of micro-tribotester. The sputtered ZnO coatings were prepared on a glass substrate at room temperature, $150^{\circ}$, and $300^{\circ}$. The ZnO coatings prepared by sol-gel method were heat-treated in air atmosphere at $550^{\circ}$ for one hour. The crystal structure and surface morphology of the coatings were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), respectively. The experimental results showed that overall the sputtered coatings exhibited better friction and wear properties than coatings prepared by sol-gel method. The sputtered coating grown at room temperature had a relatively low friction coefficient of 0.14 and superior wear resistance compared with the other coatings. Nevertheless, sol-gel method of coating ZnO on glass is beneficial for economical coating of a large surface area.

High purity $\beta$-SiC powders were synthesized using sol-gel processing. TEOS and phenol resin were used as the starting material for the silicon source and carbon source, respectively. The process turned out to be capable of producing high purity SiC powder purity degree with 99.98 %. However, it was difficult to control the shape and size of $\beta$-SiC powders synthesized by sol-gel process. In this study, $\beta$-SiC powder with size of $1{\sim}5$ um an 30 nm were used as the seeds for $\beta$-SiC to control the $\beta$-SiC powder morphology. It was found that $\beta$-SiC powder seeds was effective to increase the powder average size of synthesized $\beta$-SiC using sol-gel process by acting as the preferred growing sites for $\beta$-SiC.

The effect of ultrasonic radiation is reported for silica-poly(ethylene glycol) system prepared without the solvent using sol-gel processing by varying various parameters such as ultrasonic irradiation time, PEG content and HCl/TEOS molar ratio. The property of sonogel is compared with classic gel which has been prepared with ethanol as a solvent by traditional sol-gel processing. SEM, BET, DTA-TGA, density and Vickers hardness measurements are carried out for analyzing the samples. The gelation time is found strongly dependent on radiation time, PEG content and pH value, and has been discussed on the basis of existing theories. The $SiO_2-10$ & 20 wt% PEG sonogel exhibited superior optical, physical and gel properties as compared to the classic gel, hence, found suitable for device applications. The ultrasonic radiation increased the density and surface area, and also reduced the pore size which is well supported by the shift in the peak of DTA curve. The DTA thermogram was found similar to that of pure silica gel.

The optical and dielectric properties of TiO$_2$ thin films prepared with mixtures of Epoxy, bits-(4, 4'-p-toluenesulfonylacidic isoproplylidene)-cyclohexadiol and UVI 6990 in dry sol-gel process were investigated. The absorption peak of the films was showed at 360nm. Photocurrent of the thin films doped with 50 wt% of TiO$_2$was higher than that of nondoped thin films. Energy gap was lowered from 3.6 to 3.3 eV with increasing amount of TiO$_2$. Relative dielectric constants of samples were 1.5 to 3 and showed a characteristics of lower dielectric materials.

$Mg_4Nb_2O_9$ (MN) ceramics have been prepared by a sol-gel method. The powder characteristics, phase evolution, and microwave dielectric properties of the MN were investigated in various processing conditions such as sol-gel compositions, calcination, and sintering temperatures. A Qxfo value of 111,717 GHz with a ${\varepsilon}_r$ of 10.59 and a ${\tau}_f$ of $+1.736\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ was obtained after sintering at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 5 h.

Ferroelectric lean-titanate thin films were fabricated by sol-gel processing. Sol-gel derived $PbTiO_3$ thin films crystallized into the expected tetragonal perovskite structure when heated to $600^{\circ}C$ and above. The effects of annealing temperature on grain size made with SEM observation are reported. The films heated at $650^{\circ}C$ for 30min showed a square-type hysteresis loop with $P_r$ and $E_c$ of $11.5{\mu}C/cm^2$, 115kV/cm, respectively.

Monodispersed $SiO_2/ZnO$ composite fine powders were prepared by Sol-Gel processing and their surface electrical and UV absorbance properties were investigated. Pseudomorph ZnO fine powders were microcapsuled by $SiO_2/ZnO$ sol fabricated using TEOS[tetraethylorthosilicate, purity 98% and ethanol as a solvent with $NH_3$ catalyst. The effects of experimental parameters such as molar ratio of starting materials on the final particle size and shape of $SiO_2/ZnO$ composite fine powder were discussed. As a result, we could controlled the size of monodispersed $SiO_2/ZnO$ composite fine powders without agglomeration, as well as the good dispersibility in aquous solution. The prepared powders were observed to have the mean particle sizes of $0.26-0.78{\mu}m$ with standard deviations of $0.020-0.063{\mu}m$.

Sol-gel processing of BaTiO$_3$ ceramics doped with La(0.01-1.00 at.%) were prepared from metal barium, titanium n-butoxide and lanthanum isopropoxide. Characterization of the sol-gel-derived powder using XRD, SEM is also reported. The obtained results suggested that insulator to semiconductor transition for highly donor-doped barium titanate was closely related to the incorporation of donor into the grains and to the resultant grain size, which were significantly affected by the sinterability of BaTiO$_3$ powders and sintering conditions used.
