We have investigated the effects of deposition angle on magnetic and magneto-optic properties in Co/Pt multilayer thin films. which were prepared bye-beam evaporation on tilted substrates. with varying tilt angle from $0^{\circ}$ to $60^{\circ}$. The structure of the specimens was examined by x-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscope. and the magnetic and magneto-optical properties were measured by VSM, torque magnetometer, and Kerr loop tracer. X-ray diffractometry revealed that all of the specimens had multilayer structure and growth orientation of column followed the tangent rule but the crystallograpic orientation, <111>, was slightly deviated from the substrate normal even though the deposition angle was increased up to $60^{\circ}$. A decrement of the magnetization and Kerr angle with the deposition angle was related with that of the film density due to increasing porosity. The perpendicular mag¬netic anisotropy was also decreased with increasing the deposition angle.

The ferroelectric and electric properties of UV-irradiated bismuth lanthanum titanate (BLT) films prepared using photosensitive starting precursors were characterized. The effects of lanthanum doping on ferroelectric and electric properties were investigated by polarization-electric field hysteresis loops and leakage current-voltage measurements. X-ray diffractometer and ellipsometry were served to provide the information about the crystalline structure and thickness of the films after annealing. The images of the surface microstructure and direct-patterned BLT films were observed by using scanning electron microscopy. The effects of lanthanum doping on the electric properties of direct-pattern able BLT films and their direct-patterning were studied.

Microstructural investigations of $(1-x)NdAlO_3-xCaTiO_3$ (NACT) complex perovskite compounds were carried out using X-ray diffractometry, neutron diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. When $0.3{\leq}x{\leq}0.9$, NACT had not only the 1 : 1 chemical ordering of cations but also the antiphase and inphase tilting of oxygen octahedron and the antiparallel shift of cations. Both the antiphase boundaries and the ferroelastic domains were present in the microstructure. The long and straight ferroelastic domains became degenerate as x decreases. When x was smaller than 0.3, the chemical ordering was absent and the antiphase tilting of oxygen octahedron was observed. The defects like tangled dislocations and the second phase were also found in the microstructure.

We have carried out the measurements of complex dielectric constants with impedance/gain-phase analyzer using capacitor method and the experiments of high temperature X-ray powder diffraction with X-ray diffractometer using ${\theta}-2{\theta}$ scan method for the KTP single crystal which has the premium nonlinear optical properties. From the results of high temperature X-ray powder diffraction experiments, we have found that KTP does not undergo structural phase transition below $900^{\circ}C$. It is clear that KTP undergoes structural phase transition around $900^{\circ}C$ and belongs to orthorhombic above $900^{\circ}C$ still. However, we have applied phenomenological relation of dielectric relaxation to the results of complex dielectric measurement and have found that relaxation mechanism of KTP well satisfies the Cole-Cole relation over the temperature range from $-78^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$. And also the relaxation time well satisfies the Vogel-Fulcher relation. It is regarded that the hopping and thermally activated diffusion mechanism may control the conduction behavior of KTP above $200^{\circ}C$.

In order to study the effect of substituted $Al^{3+}$ of goethite, which was collected from Shinpyeongli in Cheju Island, we used X-ray diffractometer and Mossbauer spectrometer. In X-ray diffraction analysis, the X-ray diffraction peaks of goethite are not detected due to the high substituted Al contents of goethite. Isomer shifts indicated that the valence of Fe ions is almost oxidized trivalent of high spin state. It is believed that the contents of substituted diamagnetic $Al^{3+}$ for $Fe^{3+}$ is about 15.5 mol%. It seems that Neel temperature and saturated magnetic hyperfine field of the clay goethite are about 250 K and 498 kOe, respectively. For the temperature lower than Neel temperature, quadrupole splittings of the clay goethite are greatly influenced by $Al^{3+}$ substitution. It is believed that the high decrease of Neel temperature and magnetic hyperfine field of the clay goethite results from the magnetic dilution produced by substituting the diamagnetic $Al^{3+}$/TEX> for $Fe^{3+}$.

The purpose of this study was to investigate corrosion characteristics of Ti-xTa alloys with Ta contents. Ti-xTa alloys used as samples (x=30, 40%) were arc-melted under argon atmosphere of 99.9% purity. Ti-xTa alloys were homogenized for 12hr at $1000^{\circ}C$ and then water quenched. The surface characteristics of Ti-xTa alloys were investigated using optical microscopy (OM) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD). The anodic corrosion behaviors of the specimens were examined through potentiodynamic, potentiostatic and galvanostatic test in 0.9 % NaCl solution at $36.5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. After corrosion test, the surface characteristics of Ti-xTa alloys were investigated using OM. The microstructure of Ti-Ta alloy showed the beta structure with Ta content. The corrosion resistance of Ti alloy was improved by increasing Ta content and the corrosion morphology of Ti-Ta alloy showed that the site attacked by chloride ion decreased from the active to passive region with Ta content. Potential of Ti-40Ta alloy increased as time increased, whereas, current density of Ti-40Ta alloy decreased as time increased compared to Ti-30 alloy.

Crystalline structure of the extrudate of high amylose corn starch was studied by X-ray diffractometer and $^{13}C\;NMR$. The X-ray diffraction crystal ratio of the extrudates (barrel temperature $100^{\circ}C$ )of high amylose corn starch slightly increased from 6.08% to 8.37% by increasing feed moisture content from 25% to 45%. But extrudates of high amylose corn starch showed similar crystal ratio on various extrusion conditions. Extrudates of high amylose corn starch (feed moisture content 20%, barrel temp $140^{\circ}C$) showed more enlarged crystal structure than that of non-extrudates. The perpendicular distance of crystal increased by extrusion. Crystal ratio was changed from $6.3{\sim}8.3%$ to $4.5{\sim}5.8%$ during storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Starch configuration was examined with $^{13}C\;NMR$. Double helical content was measured by $^{13}C\;NMR$ method. The highest double helical content (60%) was obtained from high amylose corn starch extrudate (barrel temp.: $100^{\circ}C$, feed moisture content 45%). Double helical contents and resistant starch (RS) yield (pancreatin) were positively correlated. However, double helical content of the extrudates was not changed by the storage at $4^{\circ}C$.

In this study, surface characteristics and corrosion behaviors have been investigated in addition to Zr elements on the low elastic modulus Ti-30Ta alloy. Low elastic modulus Ti-30Ta-xZr(x : 3, 7 and 15 wt %) alloys were prepared by arc melting and then heat treated at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 24 hrs in an argon atmosphere. Microstructures of the alloys were examined by field emission scanning electron microscope(FE-SEM) and X-ray diffractometer(XRD). Electrochemical experiments were performed using a conventional three-electrode configuration with a sample working electrode, a high density carbon counter electrode and a saturated calomel reference electrode. According to the result of polarization behavior in the Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys, the current density of homogenized Ti-30Ta-15Zr in the passive region was lower than the other alloys.

$Gd_{1-x}VO_4:{Eu_x}^{3+}$ red phosphors were synthesized with changing the concentration of $Eu^{3+}$ ion by using a solid-state reaction method. The crystal structure, surface morphology, and photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation properties of the red phosphors were measured by using X-ray diffractometer, field emission-scanning electron microscopy, and florescence spectrometer, respectively. The XRD results showed that the main peak of all the phosphor powders occurs at (200) plane. As for the photoluminescence properties, the maximum excitation spectrum occurred at 306 nm due to the charge transfer band from ${VO_4}^{3-}$ to $Eu^{3+}$ ions and the maximum emission spectrum was the red luminescence peaking at 619 nm when the concentration of $Eu^{3+}$ ion was 0.10 mol.

[ $Y_{1-x}BO_3:Tb_x^{3+}$ ]ceramic phosphors were synthesized with changing the concentration of $Tb^{3+}$ at a sintering temperature of $1,100^{\circ}C$ and a reduction temperature of $950^{\circ}C$ by using a solid-state reaction method. The crystal structure, surface morphology, and photoluminescence properties of the phosphors were investigated as a function of $Tb^{3+}$ ion concentration by using XRD (x-ray diffractometer), scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectrophotometry, respectively. The XRD results showed that the main peak of the phosphor powders occurs at (101) plane. As for the photoluminescence properties, the excitation spectra showed the broad band centered at 306 nm and the emission intensity of the spectra peaked at 543 nm indicated a significant decrease as the concentration of $Tb^{3+}$ ion is increased.
