In this study, novel $Ag_2Se$ sensitized $TiO_2$ nanocomposites were prepared by facile sonochemical assisted synthesis method. The as-prepared products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and N2 adsorption BET analysis. The as-prepared $Ag_2Se/TiO_2$ nanocomposites simultaneously possessed great adsorptivity for organic dyes and efficient charge separation properties. In the decolorization of rhodamine B, a significant enhancement in the reaction rate was observed for the $Ag_2Se/TiO_2$ nanocomposite compared to the cases of using pure P25 or $TiO_2$. The sonocatalysis activity was higher due to the greater formation of reactive radicals, as well as to the increase of the active surface area of the $Ag_2Se/TiO_2$ nanocomposite.

The effects of $Nd_2O_3$ addition to $Q{\cdot}f_{0}(GHz)$ ceramics with ${\varepsilon}_r$ of 126, $Q{\cdot}f_{0}(GHz)$ of 2240 and of $68\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ on their microwave properties were investigated. For the addition of 5 wt% $Nd_2O_3$, the dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) showed maximum value of 131, then decreased with the further addition of $Nd_2O_3$. $Q{\cdot}f_{0}(GHz)$ value was still increased to 3533 with 9 wt% $Nd_2O_3$ addition, it is influenced by densification of grain boundary. With more addition of $Nd_2O_3$ up to 18 wt%, the abnormal grain growth have influence on the decreasing of $Q{\cdot}f_{0}(GHz)$ value. But with the further addition of $Nd_2O_3$ over 25 wt%, the $Q{\cdot}f_{0}(GHz)$ value was again increased by the effect of the second phase ($Nd_2Ti_2O_7$) forming. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (${\tau}_f$) was decreased from $+\;68\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ with the addition of $Nd_2O_3$, reached $0\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ at 12 wt% addition, and became negative with the further addition of $Nd_2O_3$. The optimum microwave dielectric properties were obtained for $0.3CaTiO_3-0.7(Li_{1/2}Nd_{1/2})TiO_3$ with 9 wt% $Nd_2O_3$ sintered at $1425^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs. The dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$), the $Q{\cdot}f_{0}(GHz)$ value, and the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (${\tau}_f$) were 108, 3533, and $+\;6\;ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively.

In this study, $CeO_2/TiO_2$ nanoparticle with structure of core and shell was synthesized by growing $TiO_2$ onto the surface of $CeO_2$ according to hydrolysis of $Ti(SO_4)_2$. Reaction time, temperature, concentration of $CeO_2$ slurry, pH control of $Ti(SO_4)_2$ were optimized about synthesis of $CeO_2/TiO_2$ core-shell nanoparticle. It was found that optimal mole ratio range of $CeO_2:TiO_2$ was 1:0.2~1.1, the optimal concentration of $CeO_2$ slurry was 1 %, and the optimal reaction temperature was $50^{\circ}C$. The optimal concentration of $CeO_2$ slurry could be increased up to 10 % by adjusting the pH of $Ti(SO_4)_2$ to 1 using $NH_4OH$ and adding to $CeO_2$ slurry. If reaction was carried at $80^{\circ}C$ or higher, the separated $TiO_2$ particles were obtained instead of $CeO_2/TiO_2$ core-shell nanoparticles. The optimal reaction temperature was $50^{\circ}C$ at which good shaped core-shell structure of $CeO_2/TiO_2$ was obtained.

To develop mobile phone antenna modules, glass-ceramics composites that are 20∼80 dielectric constant materials which has been fabricated. The glass-ceramics composites were based in the BNT (BaO-Nd$_2$O$_3$-TiO$_2$), and properties-a sintering and dielectric property-were investigated in its composites according to the $K_2$O-CaO-P$_2$O$_{5}$ system glass frits. The prepared ceramics were sintered at 900∼120$0^{\circ}C$ with the glass frit contents ranging from 10 to 40 wt%. The shrinkage and relative density grew into increasing glass frits and sintering temperature. Sintered composites showed the tendency that the dielectric constant ($\varepsilon$$_{r}$) and quality factor (Q${\times}$f) decreased in increasing glass frits and sintering temperature.

Microwave dielectric properties have been investigated in the$(1-x)CaTiO_3-xYAlO_3$ (x=0.1~1.0) solid solution system. The mixtures of $CaTiO_3$ and $YalO_3$using solid state method were sintered at various temperatures. Their dielectric constants and related temperature coefficients were strongly depend on the composition of the solid solution. The optimum properties were recorded as for ${\varepsilon}_r=47,$ $Q{\times}f_0$=35000 and ${\tau}_f=+11ppm/^{\circ}C$ without sintering agent. Even at $1200^{\circ}C$ full densification has been achieved with addition of $CaB_2O_4$ in the $0.75CaTiO_3-0.25YalO_3$ composition. The sample of $0.3 wt%-CaB_2O_4$ added $ 0.75CaTiO_3-0.25YalO_3$ sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 3 h showed optimum microwave dielectric properties of ${\varepsilon}_r=47$, $Q{\time}f_0=37000$ and ${\tau}_f=+17ppm/^{\circ}C$, which demonstrates the promising candidates for microwave dielectric materials covering 5~7 GHz range.

[ $SrTiO_3:Al,Pr$ ] red phosphors doped with Y and Er were synthesized by solid state reaction method. The luminescence properties of $SrTiO_3:Al,Pr$ phosphors before and after doping were examined by photoluminescence. Efforts were paid to elucidate the cause of the increase of green luminescence in $(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr,Er\;and\;(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors. The enhanced green luminescence was interpreted by the energy transfer between $Er^{3+}\;and\;Pr^{3+}$ ions, and the change of bandgap in the $(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr$ phosphors.

The characteristics of $Al_2TiO_5$ ceramics were influenced by the additives and the heat treatment that controls the microcrack behavior at grain boundaries. The effect of additives on $Al_2TiO_5$ ceramics were investigated in terms of mechanical properties and thermal expansion at high temperature. The $Al_2TiO_5$ were synthesized at $1500^{\circ}C$, $1550^{\circ}C$ and $1600^{\circ}C$ for 2h by reaction sintering. The formation of $Al_2TiO_5$ phase was increased by additives that enhanced the volume of the microcrack that can lead to low thermal expansion. The mechanical properties of the stabilized $Al_2TiO_5$ ceramics were increased remarkably at $1100^{\circ}C$, $1200^{\circ}C$ and $1300^{\circ}C$ due to the oneset of mechanical healing of grain-bondary microcracks at a high temperature. The amount of microcrack was decreased at lower sintering temperature that causes the increase of mechanical properties at high temperature.

In this study, the selective catalytic reduction of $NO_x$ with ammonia was carried out in a filter bag support reactor. The experiments were performed by powder type $MnO_x$ and $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst at low temperature between 130 and $250^{\circ}C$. Also, the effect of $SO_2$ and $H_2O$ on the NO conversion was investigated under our test conditions. The powder type catalysts were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS), X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). It was observed that NO removal efficiency of the powder type $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst was 85% at low temperature($200^{\circ}C$) under presence of oxygen and that of $MnO_x$ was 50% at the same condition. The powder type $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst, in conclusion, was found to be available for SCR reaction in a filter bag support system.

In this study, the preparation conditions for a TiO₂-based vanadium-based catalyst for oxidizing hydrogen sulfide at room temperature were optimized. Four types of commercial TiO₂ were used as a catalyst support and the performance evaluation of hydrogen sulfide oxidation at room temperature of V/TiO₂ by varying vanadium contents prepared using the impregnation method was performed. Among the types of TiO₂ tested, it was confirmed that the catalyst with the vanadium content of 5% and based on TiO₂(A) has the best hydrogen sulfide conversion rate of 58%. By comparing the physical and chemical properties of the catalyst, the specific surface area of the support and the species of dominant vanadium are the major factor in catalyst performance. In order to confirm the regeneration characteristics of the catalyst with reduced activity, heat treatment was performed at 400 ℃ for 2 h, and the amount of hydrogen sulfide oxidation decreased by 10% due to the partial deposition of sulfur in the regenerated catalyst, but it was confirmed that the initial performance was similar.
