투석을 이용한 투석법과 투석을 이용하지 않은 평형 실험을 통해 슈워트마나이트를 합성하였다. 이 합성실험 동안 일정시간 간격을 두고 합성 용액 시료와 합성괸 침전물 시료를 채취하였으며, 이러한 시료들에 대해 X-선 회절 분석(XRD), 시차열분석(DTA), 원자흡수분광분석(AA), 유도결합 플라즈마 원자방출분광분석(ICP-AES), 이온크로마토그래피(IC)분석 등을 실시하였다. 컴퓨터 프로그램 MINTEQA2를 이용하여 분석된 합성용액의 화학조성으로부터 침전물과 공존하는 용액 내 각 화학조성으로부터 침전물과 공존하는 용액 내 각 화학종의 분포와 활동도를 계산하였다. 연구 결과 투석법을 이용하여 합성을 하면 비평형 상태를 유지하게 되므로 순수한 슈워트마나이트의 용해도를 얻고자 할 때는 투석을 이용하지 않은 합성법을 수행하여야 하는 것이 밝혀졌다. 투석을 이용하지 않은 합성 실험 결과 슈워트마나이트 침전후 72시간이 경과한 후에 평형상태에 도달함이 확인되었다. 평형상태일 때 순수하게 합성된 슈워트마나이트의 용해도 상수 pKs는 $-6.11\pm$1.16의 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 순사한 슈원트마나이트의 분석된 화학조성으로 계산된 화학식은 $Fe_{8}$ /O sub 8/ (OH)$_{4.16}$ ($SO_4$)$_{1.92}$ .$6.74H_2$O, $Fe_{8}$ /O$_{8}$ (OH)$_{4.18}$ ($SO_4$)$_{ 1.91}$.$6.89H_2$O이다.

The green tourmalines from Kayah state, Myanmar were investigated by WD X-ray fluorescence, UV-vis, and mid-infrared spectroscopy for comparison to tourmalines of other deposits. The group of tourmaline was calculated and classified by chemical analysis. The samples belonged to the Calcic group and Uvite. The green tourmalines showed a strong absorption band at 415 and 611 nm. The presence of $V^{3+}$ ions is responsible for these absorption bands. Combination of the stretching and bending mode by the vibration between cationic and hydroxyl units (metal-OH) are observed in the 4600 ~ 4200 $cm^{-1}$.

Metal ions, toxic or potentially toxic to biota and human beings, can be immobilized by sorption onto the mineral surfaces in soils and sediments. This article briefly explains theories regarding the chemical properties of mineral surfaces to sorb metal ions and processes of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analysis for sorption study, and reviews atomic-scale findings on metal sorption on mineral surfaces. The theoretical understanding on the chemistry of mineral surfaces and metal sorption is fundamental to the proper analysis of the atomic-scale spectroscopy to determine the sorption phases. Atomic-scale findings on metal sorption phases discussed here include co-precipitation, ternary complexation, aging effects, and desorption possibilities, as well as outer-sphere complexation, inner-sphere complexation, and surface precipitation.

Structural changes of hydrous titania by heat-treatment was investigated with XRD, TEM, FT-IR, Rarnan spectral analyses. The hydrous titania was derived from a mixed solution of titanium tetrachloride and hydrogen peroxide at $30^{\circ}C$ and pH of 9.0. The precipitate was an anatase form of titania with less-developed crystalline structure. With increasing annealing temperature ranglng up to $700^{\circ}C$, the crystallinity of anatase increased, and the particles were grown at high temperature. The rutile form of titania was developed from the anatase at $700^{\circ}C$.

The origin for the charge disproportionation (CD) transition in polycrystalline $La_{1/3}Sr_{2/3}FeO_{2.96}$ was examined using X-ray diffraction and the external field $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ssbauer spectroscopy. In order to see how the external magnetic field affects the CD state above its transition temperature, an external magnetic field of up to 6 T was applied either parallel or perpendicular to the $\gamma-ray$ direction with the sample temperature fixed at 225 K, which was above the CD transition temperature. Without an external magnetic field, a completely paramagnetic singlet was obtained in the temperature range of the averaged valence state above the transition temperature, which was interpreted as coming from the average valence $Fe^{3.6+}$. In the longitudinal geometry, a magnetic Zeeman with its intensity ratio 3:0:1:1:0:3 is superimposed to the central singlet. In the transverse geometry, however, the central singlet disappears and only a magnetic component with its intensity ratio 3:4:1:1:4:3 emerges. The existence of a singlet is understood as an evidence of the fast electron-transfer among Fe ions. Since the singlet still exists under the magnetic field, the application of an external field has little effect on the conduction mechanism of hopping electrons.

Synthesis of $Nd_{2x}Cd_{2-3x}SiO_4$ ($0.01{\leq}x{\leq}0.21$) [S1-S3: x=0.01, 0.11 and 0.21] solid solutions were prepared by solgel method. Powder x-ray diffraction (XRD) results show monoclinic unit cell with space group P21/m. The average crystallite sizes are found to be 20 to 45 nm. The Scanning Electron Microcopy (SEM) images show morphology of the sample is in globular nature. The energy dispersive analysis of x-rays (EDX) and X-ray mapping results confirmed that all the constituent elements of the composites were present and that were distributed in uniformly. The optical absorption band at ~750 nm was due to $^4I_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^4F_{7/2}+^4S_{3/2}$ transition optically active $Nd^{3+}$ ions. Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) lineshapes of S1-S3 at 10, 40, 77 and 300 K show a broad unresolved isotropic lineshapes were observed due to rapid spin lattice relaxation of $Nd^{3+}$.

The atomic structures of silicate liquids at high pressure provide insights into the transport properties including thermal conductivities or elemental partitioning behavior between rocks and magmas in Earth's interior. Whereas the local electronic structure around silicon may vary with the arrangement of the nearby oxygens, the detailed nature of such relationship remains to be established. Here, we explored the atomic origin of the pressure-induced changes in the electronic structure around silicon by calculating the partial electronic density of states and L₃-edge X-ray absorption spectra of SiO₂ polymorphs. The result showed that the Si PDOS at the conduction band varies with the crystal structure and local atomic environments. Particularly, d-orbital showed the distinct features at 108 and 130 eV upon the changes in the coordination number of Si. Calculated Si XAS spectra showed features due to the s,d-orbitals at the conduction band and varied similarly with those observed in s,d-orbitals upon changes in the crystal structures. The calculated Si XAS spectrum for α-quartz was analogous to the experimental Si XRS spectrum for SiO₂ glass, implying the overall similarities in the local atomic environments around the Si. The edge energies at the center of gravity of XAS spectra were closely related to the Si-O distance, thus showing the systematic changes upon densification. Current results suggest that the Si L_2,3-edge XRS, sensitive probe of the Si-O distance, would be useful in unveiling the densification mechanism of silicate glasses and melts at high pressure.

The olivine structured $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ material was prepared by solid state method, and was analyzed by x-ray diffractometer (XRD), superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The crystal structure of $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ was determined to be orthorhombic (space group: Pnma) by Rietveld refinement method. The value of N$\acute{e}$el temperature ($T_N$) for $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ was determined 50 K. The temperature dependence of the magnetization curves showed magnetic phase transition from paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic at $T_N$ by SQUID measurement. M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra of $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ showed 2 absorption lines at temperatures above $T_N$ and showed asymmetric 8 absorption lines at temperatures below $T_N$. These spectra occurred due to the magnetic dipole and electric quardrupole interaction caused by strong crystalline field at asymmetric $FeO_6$ octahedral sites.

In present work, the antimicrobial effect of silver-nanoparticles/celite (SN/C) and silver carbonate/celite (SC/C) composites on Escherichia coli (E. coli) by use of silver nanoparticles and silver carbonate has been studied. Characteristics of the SN/C and SC/C composites were identified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). SN/C and SC/C composites showed antimicrobial activity and the minimum inhibitory concentration of E. coli were 0.541, 0.344 ppm and the complete sterilizing concentration for the test organism were 1.427, 1.623 ppm. From the results we identified that SN/C and SC/C composites have antimicrobial activity to E. coli.

Berthierine and Nontronite are firstly identified in the Sangdong tungsten ore deposits. Quantitative and qualitative analyses by EPMA and the studies using X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and infrared absorption spectroscopy were done to characterize berthierine and nontronite. The data from berthierine are in good agreement with those from other localities. The structural data of the Sangdong berthierine are consistent with the orthorhombic, pseudo-hexagonal form which is more common in samples with high $SiO_2$ and low $Al_2O_3$ content. Geologic features suggest that the Sangdong berthierine is diagenetic in origin. However, nontronite might be a product of hydrothermal alteration after the tungsten mineralization.
