A novel self-humidifying composite membrane for the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) at low humidity condition was developed. The Pt/$TiO_2$ catalyst particles were synthesized via supercritical impregnation methods. Pt precursor was dissolved in supercritical carbon dioxide and impregnated onto $TiO_2$ particles. Pt precursors were platinum(II) acetylacetonate, Dimethyl(1,5-cyclooctadiene) platinum(II) and we controlled the ratio of Pt to $TiO_2$. The impregnated Pt precursor was converted to $TiO_2$ supported Pt nanoparticle under various reducing conditions. Pt/$TiO_2$ catalyst particles were dispersed uniformly into the Nafion solution, and then Pt/$TiO_2$/Nafion composite membrane was prepared using solution-cast method. The self-humidifying composite membrane could minimize membrane conductivity loss under dry conditions due to the presence of catalyst and hydrophilic Pt/$TiO_2$ particles. To optimize the performance of MEA, amount of ionomer loading was controlled. And mixed catalysts were used. The cell performance of MEA was obviously improved under dry conditions at $65^{\circ}C$.

The high Tc superconductor of YBCO system with the nominal composition of precursor was prepared from mixed powders of $Y_2O_3$, $BaCO_3$, CuO and $TiO_2$ by the thermal pyrolysis method. The effect of $TiO_2$ doping to Y based ceramics superconductors fabricated by the thermal pyrolysis reaction, to investigate the effect of the dopant on the superconductivity. The voltage appearing across the field-cooled HTS sample increased with external magnetic field. The improvement of critical current property as well as the mechanical property is important for the application. The improvement of the critical current can be achieved by forming the nano size defect working as a flux pining center inside the superconductor. We simply added $TiO_2$ to starting materials to dope $TiO_2$ and observed an increase in the trapped field and the critical current density up to at least 5 wt % $TiO_2$. The $TiO_2$ was converted to fine $BaTiO_3$ particles which were trapped in YBCO matrix during the sintering process. We observed a peak effect of Jc that can be attributed to $TiO_2$ doping and results suggest that introducing a proper amount of pinning centers can significantly enhance current density.

$TiO_2$ thin films were grown on Si (100) substrates by atomic layer deposition using $[Ti(OPr^i )_2(dmae)_2]$ and water as precursors. The thickness, chemical composition, crystalline structure, and morphology of the deposited films were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, UV spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron pectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and atomic force microscopy. The results show that $TiO_2$ ALD using $[Ti(OPr^i )_2(dmae)_2]$ as a precursor is self-controlled at temperatures of 100-300$^{\circ}C$. At the growth temperatures below 300$^{\circ}C$, the surface morphology of the $TiO_2$ films is smooth and uniform. The $TiO_2$ film was grown with a preferred orientation toward the [101] direction at 400$^{\circ}C$.

Synthesis and process development of nano-size Ti powder by SFE(Sodium/halide Flame Encapsulation) method were investigated. Four concentric coflow burner was used and its flame configuration was $TiCl_4/Ar/Na/Ar$ in order from the center. Flame has been controlled by the various processing parameters such as temperature of burner and flow rates of both $TiCl_4$(g) precursor and Na(g). It was found that yellow-colored flame was shown in the flow rates of 70cc/min of $TiCl_4$(g) precursor and 2 $\ell$ /min of Na(g) which were regarded as optimum flame condition. The powders encapsuled by NaCl were produced having the average powder size of 250nm. The results of X-ray diffraction showed that powders from the optimized condition consisted of pure Ti and NaCl. TEM analysis confirmed that the several Ti powders of 20-100nm were encapsulated with NaCl. After removing sodium chloride by heat treatment, the spherical Ti powders with the size range of 80 to 150nm were obtained.

$Pb(Zr_{0.52}, Ti_{0.48})O_3$ (PZT) thick films as an actuating material with conducting oxides, $(La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}) CoO_3$ (LSCO), have been fabricated by sol-gel method for Optical Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) devices, in which PZT/LSCO/SiO2 structures were used. In order to improve the adhesion to LSCO solution in order to enhance the wetting behavior of a water-based LSCO precursor solution and further to improve the adhesion between LSCO and $SiO_2$ layers. PZT films were made using 1-3 propanediol based precursor solution which has a high viscosity and a boiling point appropriate for thick film fabrication. In the precursor solution, Ti-propoxied and Zr-propoxied are partially substituted with acetylacetone to achieve the solution stability while maintaining reactivity. Crack free PZT films (0.8~1$\mu\textrm{m}$) have been successfully fabricated at crystallization temperatures above $700^{\circ}C$. Dielectric constants and dielectric losses of the PZT films were 900~1200and 2~5%, respectively. Piezoelectric constant $d_{33}$ of the PZT films constrained by a substrate were 200pm/V at 100kV/cm.

The influence of the concentration of precursor solution and the number of solution coatings on the densification of the $Pb(Zr_xTi_{1-x})O_3$ (PZT) thick films was studied. PZT powder and PZT precursor solution were prepared by3 sol-gel method and PZT thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing method on the alumina substrates. The composition of powder and precursor solution were PZT(70/30) and PZT(30/70), respectively. The PZT precursor solution was spin-coated on the PZT thick films. A concentration of a coating solution was 0.5 to 2.0 mol/L[M] and the number of coating was repeated from 0 to 6. The XRD patterns of all PZT thick films shelved typical perovskite polycrystalline structure. The porosity of the thick films was decreased with increasing the number of coatings and 6-time coated films with 1.5 M showed the dense microstructure and thickness of about $60{\mu}m$. The relative dielectric constant of the PZT thick film was increased with increasing the number of solution coatings and the thick films with 1.5 M, 6-time coated showed the 698. The remanent polarization the 1.5 M and 6-time coated PZT thick films was $38.3{\mu}C/cm^2$.

본 연구에서는 SO₂를 제어하기 위한 산화 촉매에서 platinum (Pt)을 활성금속으로 하는 촉매의 반응특성에 관한 분석을 수행하였다. Titania (TiO₂) 지지체에 다양한 precursor 형태의 Pt를 사용하여 Pt/TiO₂ 촉매를 제조하여 실험에 사용하였다. Pt/TiO₂ 상의 Pt²⁺ 또는 Pt⁴⁺와 같은 Pt valence state에 따른 SO₂ 산화의 성능 차이는 나타나지 않으며, PtCl_x과 같은 Pt chloride species는 전체적으로 SO₂ 산화 성능을 감소시킨다. 또한, XPS 분석을 수행하여 SO₂ 산화 반응 전/후의 촉매상의 valence state를 분석한 결과 SO₂ 산화반응 이후 lattice oxygen의 감소 및 surface chemisorbed oxygen의 증가를 확인할 수 있다. 따라서 Pt/TiO₂ 촉매의 SO₂의 산화 반응은 PtOx에 해당하는 lattice oxygen의 반응과 oxygen vacancy에 의한 산화-환원 반응이 진행되는 Mar-Van Krevelen 메커니즘이 주요한 SO₂ 산화 반응임을 판단할 수 있으며, 이러한 결과를 통하여 촉매 상에 존재하는 PtOx (Pt²⁺ 또는 Pt⁴⁺)의 oxygen species가 주요한 활성 site로 작용함을 확인할 수 있다.

Nano-sized $BaNd_2Ti_5O_{14}$ powders were prepared by the spray pyrolysis process. Sucrose used as the organic additive enabled the formation of nano-sized $BaNd_2Ti_5O_{14}$ powders. The powders prepared from the spray solution without sucrose had a spherical shape, dense structure and micron size before and after calcination. However, the precursor powders prepared from the spray solution with sucrose had a large size, and hollow and porous morphology. The precursor powders had an amorphous crystal structure because of the short residence time of the powders inside the hot wall reactor. The complete decomposition of sucrose did not occur inside the hot wall reactor. Therefore, the precursor powders obtained from the spray solution with sucrose of 0.5M had a carbon content of 39.2wt.%. The powders obtained from the spray solution with sucrose of 0.5M had a slightly aggregated structure of nano-sized primary powders of $BaNd_2Ti_5O_{14}$ crystalline phase after calcination at $1000^{\circ}C$. The calcined powders turned into nano-sized $BaNd_2Ti_5O_{14}$ powders after milling. The mean size of the $BaNd_2Ti_5O_{14}$ powders was 125 nm.

In the powder compact melting technique, proper precursor fabrication is very important because density distribution after foaming and foamability are determined during precursor fabrication process. The fabrication of the precursor has to be performed very carefully because any residual porosity or other defects will lead to poor results in further processing. In order to evaluate the effect of the compaction parameters on the kinetics of the foaming process, a series of experiments were performed. In this study, aluminium foams with a closed cell structure were fabricated by using both the powder compact method and the induction heating process. A proper induction coil was designed to obtain a uniform temperature distribution over the entire cross sectional area of precursor. To establish the foamable precursor fabrication conditions, effects of process parameters such as the titanium hydride content (0.3∼1.5 wt.%), pressing pressure of the foamable precursor (50∼150kN) on the pore morphology were investigated.
