The SCT thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode($Pt/TiN/SiO_2/Si$) using RF sputtering method with Sr/Ca ratio. The maximum grain of thin films is obtained by ratio of Ca at 15 mol%. The dielectric constant was increased with increasing the ratio of Ca, while it was decreased if the ratio of Ca exceeded over 15 mol%. The dielectric constant changes almost linearly in temperature ranges of $-80{\sim}+90$. All SCT thin films used in this study show the phenomena of dielectric relaxation with the increase of frequency, and the relaxation frequency is observed above 200 kHz. The current-voltage characteristics of SCT thin films showed the increasing leakage current as the measuring temperature increases.

The thin films of high permitivity in ferroelectric materials using a capacitor are applied to DRAMs and FRAMs. (Ba, Sr)TiO$_3$ thin as ferroelectric materials were prepared by the sol-gel method and made by spin-coating on the Pt/Sio$_2$/Si substrate at 4,000 [rpm] for 10 seconds. The structural characteristics of the surface were analyzed by fractal dimension. The thickness of BST ceramics thin films was about 260∼280 [nm]. The property of the leakage current was stable with 10-9∼10-11[A] when the applied voltage was 0∼3[V]. BST thin films ha low leakage current properties when fractal dimension was low and a coating area was high.

The pretreatment for substrate was carried out in change of gun pressure of $0.5\sim3.5$ bar using wet blasting. The size of $Al_2O_3$ powder was about $50{\sim}150{\mu}m$. As the results, the surface roughness of cemented carbide substrate was improved with increment of gun pressure of wet blasting. A new surface layer was formed and Co particles were uniformly distributed over the entire surface after pretreatment. The adhesion of the pretreated substrate in same PVD-TiAlN film was improved and in approximately $Ra=90\sim120\;nm$ shown the best adhesion value.

The (Sr$_{1-x}$ Ca$_{x}$) thin films ale deposited OR Pt-Coated electrode(Pt/TiN/SiO$_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method with substitutional contents of Ca. The maximum grain of thin films is obtained at SCT15 thin film. The dielectric constant was increased with increasing the substitutional contents of Ca, while it was decreased if the substitutional contents of Ca exceeded over 15[mol%]. The temperature properties of the dielectric loss have a stable value within 2% independent of the substitutional contents of Ca.Ca.

$Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.07}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.10}(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})_{0.83}O_3$ composition ceramics with high piezoelectric properties were fabricated by the columbite precursor method for ultrasonic generators, and the effects of sintering temperature on microstructure and piezoelectric properties were systematically investigated. It was found that the tetragonality of the ceramics decreased with increase in sintering temperature. Moreover, excellent physical properties such as $d_{33}=447pC/N$, ${\varepsilon}_r=1,843$, $k_p=0.641$, and $Q_m=1,207$ were obtained for an ultrasonic generator when the second calcination temperature and sintering temperature were $720^{\circ}C$ and $920^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Photoelectrochemical solar cells such as dye-sensitized cells (DSSCs), which exhibit high performance and are cost-effective, provide an alternative to conventional p-n junction photovoltaic devices. However, the efficiency of such cells plateaus at 11-12%, in contrast to their theoretical value of 33%. Improvements in efficiency can only occur through a fundamental understanding of the underlying physics, materials, and device designs of DSSCs. A photoelectrode consisting of semiconducting oxide nanoparticles and a transparent conducting oxide electrode (TCO) is a key component of DSSC and design of photoelectrode materials is one of promising strategies to improving energy conversion efficiency. We introduce monodisperesed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles prepared by forced hydrolysis method and their superiority as photoelectrode materials was characterized with aids of optical and electrochemical analysis. Multi-layered TCO materials are also introduced and their feasibility for use as photoelectrodes is discussed in terms of optical absorption and charge collecting properties.

전압을 인가하였을 때 전계방향에 의해 가역적으로 색이 변화하는 현상을 전기변색(electrochromism)이라고 한다. 이러한 전기채색현상을 보이는 물질을 전기채색물질(electrochromism materials)이라고 하며, 전기채색 물질에 의한 소자를 전기채색소자(electrochromism device : ECD)라고 한다. 전기채색현상은 투과율(transmittance), 반사율(reflectance)의 가역적이며 가시적인 변화이고, 전기화학적인 산화환원 반응과 관련이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Titanate nanotube(TNT)를 제조하고 전기변색소자(ECD)에 응용하였다. SEM, XRD, UV-Vis등을 이용하여 재료학적 분석을 시행하였으며, 전기화학적 테스트로 cyclic voltammetry를 측정 하였다. 그 결과 TNT 분말은 직경 약 20~30 nm, 길이 약 500~600 nm 의 입자형상을 나타내었으며, X-선 회절시험결과 $H_2Ti_2O_5{\cdot}H_2O$의 층상구조를 나타내었다. 제조된 막은 FTO glass 위에 PEI/(TNT/TBAOH)$_{n-1}$/PDDA의 순으로 코팅되었다. 전기화학적 테스트를 위하여 2전극 시스템을 제작하였으며, 여러 종류의 액체 전해질을 제작하여 cycle voltammetry를 시행하였다. 그 결과, 각각의 전해질에서 "-"영역의 산화환원전위 피크가 뚜렷하게 나타났으며, 짙은 갈색으로의 채색현상을 나타냈다. 본 연구의 결과로서 TNT 박막을 이용한 ECD은 광조절 유리로서 뿐만 아니라, 여러 전기채색 디바이스에 응용될 것으로 사료된다.

In this paper, the piezoelectric and dielectric properties as a function of x and r in $yPbZr_xTi_{1-x}O_3-(1-y)Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ piezoelectric ceramics is investigated. As a results, when y is 0.95 and x is 0.505, electromechanical coupling factor($k_p$), permittivity(${{\varepsilon}_{33}}^T/{\varepsilon}_0$), piezoelectric strain constant($d_{33}$) and mechanical quality factor($Q_m$) are 58[%], 1520, 272 [pC/N] and 1550, respectively. From XRD analysis, when x is 0.505, it is MPB which present rhombohedral and tetragonal phase in same quantity. Also, From SEM observation. when sintering temperature is 1150[$^{\circ}C$], grain size is about 2 [${\mu}m$]. As y decreases, piezoelectric and dielectric properties and curie temperature decreases, but mechanical quality factor and sintering temperature increases.

Sediment from six piston cores from the East Sea (Sea of Japan) was analyzed for evidence of paleoceanographic changes and paleoclimatic variation. A distinct geochemical boundary is evident in major element concentrations and organic carbon content of most cores near the 10-ka horizon. This distinctive basal Holocene change is interpreted to be largely the result of changing sediment sources, an interpretation supported by TiO_2/Al_2O_3$ ratios. Organic carbon and carbonate contents also differ significantly between the Holocene and glacial intervals. The C/N ratio of organic matter is greater than 10 during the glacial period, but is less than 10 for the Holocene, suggesting that the influx of terrigenous organic matter was more volumetrically important than marine organic matter during glacial times. The chemical index of weathering (CIW) is higher for the Holocene than the glacial interval, and changes markedly at the basal Holocene geochemical boundary. Silt fractions are higher in the glacial interval, suggesting a strong effect of climate on silt particle transportation: terrigenous aluminosilicates and continental organic carbon transport were higher during glacial times than during the Holocene. Differences in sediment composition between the Holocene and glacial period are interpreted to have been climatically induced.
