Fine, spherical (Zr, SN)TiO4 powders were prepared from the aqueous solution of metal chlorides by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. Single phase (Zr, SN)TiO4 powders could be obtained above $700^{\circ}C$ (=temperature of the reactor) and all powders exhibited sizes in the range of 0.1 to 2.0 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and a narrow size distribution. The sintering properties of the prepared powders were better than those of the powders from solid-state reaction.

The silica nanoparticles were used as support of catalyst, filling material, electronic assembler, thin film material, and sensor material. And, the titania nanoparticles were used as pigment, dielectric substance, sensor and photocatalyst. In this paper, the spherical composite particles of $TiO_2/SiO_2$with narrow size distribution and phase pure were synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method from $TiOSO_4$ and colloidal silica solution. Using ultrasonic apparatus, this starting solution was vaporized to droplets, and these droplets were induced into tube furnace by carrier gas. The resulting composite powder was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, TG-DTA, in vitro sun protection factor(SPF) and BET surface area analysis.

Lithium lanthanum titanium oxide (LLTO) is a promising ceramic electrolyte because of its high ionic conductivity at room temperature, low electrical conductivity, and outstanding physical properties. Several routes for the synthesis of bulk LLTO are known, in particular, solid-state synthesis and sol-gel method. However, the extremely low ionic conductivity of LLTO at grain boundaries is one of the major problems for practical applications. To diminish the grain boundary effect, the structure of LLTO is tuned to nanoscale morphology with structures of different dimensionalities (0D spheres, and 1D tubes and wires); this strategy has great potential to enhance the ion conduction by intensifying Li diffusion and minimizing the grain boundary resistance. Therefore, in this work, 0D spherical LLTO is synthesized using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP). The USP method primarily yields spherical particles from the droplets generated by ultrasonic waves passed through several heating zones. LLTO is synthesized using USP, and the effects of each precursor and their mechanisms as well as synthesis parameters are analyzed and discussed to optimize the synthesis. The phase structure of the obtained materials is analyzed using X-ray diffraction, and their morphology and particle size are analyzed using field-emission scanning electron microscopy.

$SrZr_{0.95}$$Y_{0.05}$$O_{2.975}$ powder was synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis using a solution that Sr carbonate and Zr and Y nitrates were dissolved in a citric acid solution. The processes of particle formation were in-vestigated with respect to solution properties and pyrolysis temperature. With changing the solution con-centration form 0.1M to 0.01M there was a tendency that average sizes of droplets and particles were de-creased and their size distributions were narrowed. Citrate functional groups converted the droplets into gel particles which prevented an inhomogeneous precipitation of the metal ions and facilitated the diffusion of gases during thermal decomposition. As a result the powder having spherical particles without hollow par-ticles could be prepared. Low pyrolysis temperature led to amorphous particles due to incomplete pyrolysis and made the particles difficult to maintain spherical shape due to retarded gelation of the droplets. Whereas higher pyrolysis temperature produced hollow and broken particles because the droplets un-derwent rapid gelationand decomposition. The particles obtained at two pyrolysis temperature $500^{\circ}$and $1000^{\circ}C$ consisted of a perovskite phase and a very small amount of $SrCO_3$ However after calcination at $1000^{\circ}C$ the particles contained a single perovskite phase having an average particle size of 0.63${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and an apparent density near to the theoretical density.

Fine $PbTiO_3$ Particles were synthesized from the $Pb(NO_3)_2$and $TiO(NO_3)_2$ solution by the spray pyrolysis method using the ultrasonic vibrator as a mist generator. The obtained particles were characterized. The mechanisms of particle formation were discussed in comparison with those if other particles, such as $BaTiO_3$, $ZnO_2$, ZnO ....., in the same spray pyrolysis process.

Superconductor material $Bi_2Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3O_x$(Bi-2223) powders were synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method. It is clear that Bi-2223 phase more than Bi-2212 phase was acquired at sufficient synthesized time. Best condition for Bi-2223 phase was synthesizing temperature at $860^{\circ}C$. We also investigated the effects for concentrations and viscosities of starting liquid precursor as well as temperature distribution of reacting furnace. The size of synthesized powder was decreased by decreasing the concentration of starting liquid precursor. Modified reacting furnace with four different temperature heating zones gave us successful results for desirable nano-powder including $Bi_2Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3O_x$ phase. Citric acid addition to starting liquid precursor showed increasing of the size for synthesized powder. Bi-2223 single phase was acquired from Bi2223 and Bi-2212 mixed phases through heat treatment in box furnace at 24 hours.

This study demonstrates the effect of the compaction pressure on the microstructure and properties of pressureless-sintered W bodies. W powders are synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis and hydrogen reduction using ammonium metatungstate hydrate as a precursor. Microstructural investigation reveals that a spherical powder in the form of agglomerated nanosized W particles is successfully synthesized. The W powder synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis exhibits a relative density of approximately 94% regardless of the compaction pressure, whereas the commercial powder exhibits a relative density of 64% under the same sintering conditions. This change in the relative density of the sintered compact can be explained by the difference in the sizes of the raw powder and the densities of the compacted green body. The grain size increases as the compaction pressure increases, and the sintered compact uniaxially pressed to 50 MPa and then isostatically pressed to 300 MPa exhibits a size of 0.71 m. The Vickers hardness of the sintered W exhibits a high value of 4.7 GPa, mainly due to grain refinement.

${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ films were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) on $SiO_{2}$ coated Si wafers using iron acetylacetonate as an iron precursor. The crystallographic properties and surface morphologies of the films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was carried out to determine the Fe oxidation states. In order to observe stability of the films to temperature, the resistance variation of the films with an ambient temperature was measured. The effects of substrate temperature on the structural and electrical properties of the ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ films were studied. The films were densified from the substrate temperature of $350^{\circ}C$. The grain size of the films grown at $400^{\circ}C$ was shown to be increased abruptly comparing with that of $350^{\circ}C$. The films showed a low resistance variation between the ambient temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ and $350^{\circ}C$.
