Fe and Si are common impurity elements in the aluminum alloys. In this investigation, the effects of the addition of Fe and Si on the age-hardening behaviors of the Al-Cu-Mn-Ti-Zr-Cd casting alloys were examined through hardness measurements, calorimetric techniques and observation of the transmission electron microscopy. The addition of Fe depresses the formation of GPII and ${\theta}'$, and thus retards the peak aging time and reduces the peak hardness of the Al-Cu-Mn-Ti-Zr-Cd alloys. On the contrary, the addition of Si accelerates the formation of GPII and ${\theta}'$ and thus accelerates age-hardening behaviors of the Al-Cu-Mn-Ti-Zr-Cd alloys.

An effect of the spin-orbit coupling interaction of ligand orbitals on the ground state for octahedral $[Ti(Ⅲ)A_3B_3]$, $ [V(Ⅲ)A_3B_3]$, $ [Fe(Ⅲ)A_3B_3]$ and $ [Ni(Ⅱ)A_3B_3]$ type complexes has been investigated in this work, applying the degenerate perturbation theory. The wave functions are not affected but the energy level splitting for the ground state of these complexes by the spin-orbit coupling interaction of ligand orbitals. The extent of effect on the energy level splitting for the ground state is decreased in order Ti(Ⅲ) > V(Ⅲ) > Fe(Ⅲ).

A new magnetic semiconductor material was synthesized to enable separation after a liquid-type photocatalysis process. Core@shell-structured $CuFeS_2@TiO_2$ magnetic nanoparticles were prepared by a combination of solvothermal and wet-impregnation methods for photocatalysis applications. The materials obtained were characterized using X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet-visible, photoluminescence spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area measurements, and cyclic voltammetry. This study confirmed that the light absorption of $CuFeS_2$ was shifted significantly to the visible wavelength compared to pure $TiO_2$. Moreover, the resulting hydrogen production from the photo-splitting methanol/water solution after 10 hours was more than 4 times on the core@shell structured $CuFeS_2@TiO_2$ nanocatalyst than on either pure $TiO_2$ or $CuFeS_2$.

$(Sm_{0.5}RE_{0.5})Fe_{11}Ti$ compounds have tetragonal $ThMn_{12}$-type structure and show the uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy with the easy magnetization c-axis. Among the $(Sm_{0.5}RE_{0.5})Fe_{11}Ti$ series, RE=Sm shows the highest anisotropy field of 11200 kA/m(140 kOe). On the other hand, RE=Nd has the highest saturation magnetization of $122.3\;Am^{2}/kg$(122.3 emu/g) and RE=Gd the highest Curie temperature of $326^{\circ}C$.

Multiferroic properties of $BaTiO_3-CuFe_2O_4$ thin films grown on highly-textured Pt(111)/$TiO_2/SiO_2$/Si(100) substrates were studied. $CuFe_2O_4$ ceramic target was synthesized by mixing oxide powders of CuO, $Fe_2O_03$, $BaTiO_3$ ceramic target was also prepared separately. The film structure was of bi-layer type, where $BaTiO_3$ layer lies underneath of $CuFe_2O_4$ layer, where both layers were grown by pulsed laser deposition technique. We will report the ferroelectric and magnetic properties of $BaTiO_3-CuFe_2O_4$ bi-layer films in some detail.

$BiFeO_3$ films were hetero-epitaxially grown on $SrTiO_3$ substrate with a various orientation by pulse laser deposition. $BiFeO_3$ films grown on (111) $SrTiO_3$ substrate have a rhombohedral structure, identical to that of single crystals. On the other hand, films grown on (110) or (001) $SrTiO_3$ substrate are monoclinically distorted from the rhombohedral structure due to the epitaxial constraint. The easy axis of spontaneous polarization is close to [111] for the variously oriented films. Dramatically enhanced polarization and magnetization have been found for $BiFeO_3$ thin films grown on $SrTiO_3$ substrate comparing to that of $BiFeO_3$ crystals. The results are explained in terms of an epitaxially-induced transition between cycloidal and homogeneous spin states, via magneto-electric interactions.

Self-cleaning fabric is a fabric having a function of decotamination via photodecomposition of photocatalyst or wash-off of contaminants on the superhydrophobic surface. TiO₂ is the main photocatalyst for this purpose, but it only functions under UV light which is only a little portion of sunlight, compared to visible light. In this regard, this study aims to investigate Fe-doped TiO₂ for improved photodecomposition from visible light sensitization to apply self-cleaning finishing of PET fabrics. Moreover, the Fe-doped TiO₂ treated PET fabric was further treated with hexadecyltrimethoxysilane to provide superhydrophobicity on the PET fabrics. As a result of this dual treatment, the prepared fabric exhibited excellent photodecomposition of methylene blue with 96.96% in 12h under sunlight and superhydrophobicity with water contact angle of 166.5° and roll-off angle of 7°. This suggested that the excellent self-cleaning functions can be privided to PET fabric via Fe-doped TiO₂ and hexadecyltrimethoxysilane treatment.

자기저항헤드용 Ni-Fe-Co/Cu/Ni-Fe-Co/Fe-Mn 다층박막에서 자기적 성질과 전기적 성질에 관하여 조사하였다. 저 포화자계에서 고 자기저항을 나타내는 스핀 밸브형 다층박막을 제작하기 위하여 Borond이 도핑된 p-type Si(100)기판위에 Ni-Fe-Co 단층박막과 Si/Ni-Fe-Co/Cu/Ni-FeCo, Si/Ni-Fe-Co/Fe-Mn 구조의 다층막을 제작하여 자기적 특성을 조사하였다. Ni-Fe-Co 단층박막의 자기적 특성은 고정된 아르곤 분압에서 박막의 두께 등에 의존성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 Si/Ni-Fe-Co($70AA$)/Fe-Mn 구조에서 Ni-Fe-Co와 Fe-Mn 계면에서의 두 자성층의 이방성 차이에 의해서 발생되어지는 교환자기이방성이 존재하였으며, 교환자기이방성자계값은 Fe-Mn 두께가 $150\AA$일 때 가장 큰 값을 나타내었다. Ni-Fe-Co texture와 교환자기이방성자계값은 Fe-Mn 두께가 $150\AA$일 때 가장 큰 값을 나타내었다. Ni-Fe-Co texture와 교환자기이방성자계값의 의존성을 알아보기 위하여 Ti, Cu를 바닥층으로 사용하였다. Ti을 바닥층으로 사용하였을 경우, 교환자기이방성자계값은 23.5 Oe 정도의 가장 큰 값을 나타내었다. XRD 분석결과, Ti 바닥층이 Cu 바닥층이나, 바닥층이 없는 경우와 비교하여 성막된 Ni-Fe-Co 자성층의 강한 fcc(111) texture를 형성하는 것으로 나타났다. 각각의 단층박막과 다층박막에서의 자기적 특성을 측정한 후, Si/Ti($50\AA$)/Ni-Fe-Co($70\AA$)/Cu($23\AA$)/Ni-Fe-Co($70\AA$)/Fe-Mn(150$\AA$)/Cu(50$\AA$)의 스핀밸브구조를 갖는 다층박막을 제작하였으며, 11 Oe의 낮은 포화자계값에서 4.1%의 고 자기저항값을 얻을 수 있었다.

The effect of VC addition on the microstructural evolution of Fe-TiC cermet has been investigated. The microstructures of the Fe-TiC varied with the amount of VC addition. The addition of 1wt% VC enhanced the instability of liquid-solid interface ; the dissolving interface showed round shape instead of facetted one which was ascribed to the increase of lattice mismatch between TiC and solid-solution carbide. in the speci-men with 10wt% VC the new set of solid-solution carbide grains of uniform and small size was formed in-side coarse TiC particles by diffusion induced recrystallizatin (DIR). With increasing the heat-treatment time fine recrystallized grains were dispersed homogeneously in the matrix and resulted in the increase in fracture strength.

Microwave hydrothermal-assisted sol-gel method was employed to synthesize the Fe doped TiO2 photocatalyst. The morphological analysis suggests anatase phase nanoparticles of ~20 nm with an SBET area of 283.99 ㎡/g. The doping of Fe ions in TiO2 created oxygen vacancies and Ti3+ species as revealed through the XPS analysis. The reduction of the band gap (3.1 to 2.8 eV) is occurred by doping effect. The as-prepared photocatalyst was applied for removal of NOx under solar light irradiation. The doping of Fe in TiO2 facilitates 75 % of NOx oxidation efficiency which is more than two-fold enhancement than the TiO2 photocatalyst. The possible reason of enhancement is associated with high surface area, oxygen vacancy, and reduction of the band gap. Also, the low production of toxic intermediates, NO2 gas, is further confirmed by Combustion Ion Chromatography. The mechanism related NOx oxidation by the doped photocatalyst is explained in this study.
