Some RE (Zr, Nb, REE) ore deposits are located in the middle part of the Korean peninsula. Geotectonically, the RE ore deposits situated on the Kyemyeongsan Formation of northern margin of the Okcheon geosynclinal belt and in the transitional zone between Kyeonggi massif and Okcheon belt. The rare metal deposits distributed in Kyemyeongsan Formation which consists of schist and alkaline granite. The alkali granite has suffered extensive post-magmatic metasomatism and hydrothermal processes. The ore contains mainly Ce-La, Ta-Nb, Y, Y-Nb, Ti-Nb-(U), Nd-Th group minerals. Fergusonite, one of Nb-Y rich REE minerals belonging to the A-B oxides, is most common mineral in the rare metal deposits. The fergusonite bearing rocks may be devided into four types by occurrence features and mineral association, that is, zircon type, allanite vein, feldspar type, and fluorite type. Fergusonites show wide variations in optical properties, due to part of differences in their chemical composition (depending on the types), but also the degree of crystalinity of the individual specimens. Fergusonite metamicts enclosed in biotite are generally surrounded by well developed pleochroic haloes. Usually, fergusonite is accompanied with zircon and other REE-bearing minerals. Petrographical and chemical data are presented for fergusonites which collected different types. $Nb_2O_3$ and $Y_2O_3$ contents range from 48.51 to 53.01 wt.% and 29.18 to 42.02 wt.% respectively. Also, $ThO_2$, (1.83~6.93), $UO_2$, (0.17~2.84), ${\sum}RE_2O_3$ (except to Y) (1.11~8.73), and $TiO_2$, (0.19~1.19 wt.%) contents show variational compositions according to fergusonite types. The ${\sum}RE_2O_3$ of fergusonites are positive relation with $Y_2O_3$ and negative relaton with $ThO_2$ and $({\sum}{RE_2O_3}-{Y_2O_3})$. The $Nb_2O_3$ is sightly negative relation with $Ta_2O_3$. Back-scattered electron microscope images (BEI) of fergusonite show the mineral composition and textural feature is very complicated. The variation of Nb, Th and REE content of fergusonite and the modes of occurrence of mineral, suggests that REE may have been mobilized during the circulation of hydrothermal fluids related to contact metamorphism (metasomatism). The chemical variation of the fergusonites with occurrences and mineral association can be related to metasomatism of alkaline fluid was probably the dominant ore-forming process in Chungju district.

최근에 고효율의 적색 형광체를 합성하여 형광 램프, 음극선관, X-선 검출기, 전계 발광 디스플레이에 응용하기 위하여 다양한 모체 결정과 활성체를 도핑하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $GdNbO_4$ 모체 결정에 $Eu^{3+}$ 이온 활성체를 주입하여 합성함으로써 새로운 적색 형광체의 발광 세기와 입자의 형상을 최적화 시키고자 한다. 형광체 분말 시료의 제조는 Eu의 함량을 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 mol로 변화시키면서 고상 반응법을 이용하여 합성하였다. 초기 물질 Gd2O3 (99.99%), $Nb_2O_5$ (99.99%), $Eu_2O_3$ (99.9%)를 화학 적량으로 측량하고 에탄올과 ZrO2 볼과 함께 플라스틱 병에 넣어 400 rpm의 속도로 24시간 볼밀 작업을 수행한 후에, 혼합된 분말의 볼을 걸러내고 60$^{\circ}C$에서 20시간 동안 건조하였다. 건조된 시료를 막자 사발에 넣고 잘게 갈아서 체로 걸러낸 다음에 세라믹 도가니에 넣고 전기로에서 분당 5$^{\circ}C$씩 승온하여 500$^{\circ}C$에서 10시간 동안 1차 하소한 후에, 계속 온도를 승온시켜 1,200$^{\circ}C$에서 3시간 동안 소결하여 합성하였다. XRD 회절 패턴의 경우에, $Eu^{3+}$의 함량에 관계없이 모든 세라믹은 JCPDS (22-1104)에 제시된 회절상과 일치하는 사방정계의 결정 구조를 가짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 주 피크는 28.4$^{\circ}$에서 최대값을 갖는 (121)면에서 발생하는 회절 신호이었다(Fig. 1). 적색 형광체 분말의 광학 및 표면 특성은 PL, PLE와 SEM으로 조사되었으며, 세라믹 분말의 형광 특성과 결정 구조, 표면 형상에 대한 자세한 논의가 제시될 것이다.

The piezoelectric properties of $0.05Pb(Al_{0.5}Nb_{0.5})O_3-0.95Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3+0.7wt%Nb_2O_5+o.5wt%MnO_2$ ceramics with the additive of BaCO$_3$were investigated. As the addition of BaCO$_3$increased from 0 to 0.4 wt%, the dielectric constant ($\epsilon^T _{33}$), piezoelectric constant ($d_33$), electromechanical coupling factor ($k_p$), and mechanical quality factor ($Q_m$) increased, while the dielectric loss ($tan\delta$) decreased. The highest piezoelectric and dielectric properties were observed at $1200^{\circ}C$ of the sintered temperature with 0.4 wt% of $BaCO_3$, and the properties of $d_33$, $k_p$, and $Q_m$ were 339 pC/N, 60% and 1754, respectively.

The Imgye hornblendites occur as intrusive sills or dykes within the mylonite zone developed along the contact boundary between Precambrian Jungbongsan granite and Cambrian Jangsan quartzite or Myobong slate formations. The hornlendites belong to the subalkaline and tholeiitic series. In tectonomagmatic discrimination diagrams such as $TiO_2-K_2O-P_2O_5$, 2Nb-Zr/4-Y and $TiO_2-10MnO-10P_2O_5$, the hornblendites are classified into continental- and island-arc tholeiites. The hornblendites show fractionated REE patterns with $(La/Yb)_{CN}$ ranging from 3.73-4.56. In incompatible element abundance variations, the hornblendites show distinctive positive and negative anomalies for Rb and Nb, respectively, and unfractionated patterns of immobile incompatible elements such as Y and Yb. The REE patterns of the hornblendites are also similar to those of typical continental back-arc tholeiites and those of the Precambrian Okbang amphibolites in the Socheon-meon, Bonghwa-gun. Accoiding to geochemical characteristics above-mentioned, the hornblendites seem to have been formed from tholeiitic magmas of depleted upper mantle source, contaminated by crustal material en route to continental back-arc basin.

Transition metal ions doped $TiO_2$ nanostructured powders were prepared with simply heating aqueous $TiOCl_2$ solutions, contained various metal ions (Ni, Al, Fe, Zr, and Nb) of 1.47 mol% added as metal-chlorides, at $100^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs by homogeneous precipitation process under suppressing conditions of water vaporization. The characterizations for prepared $TiO_2$ powders were carried out to observe doping of metal ions, their concentrations and microstructures using XRD, UV-VIS (DRS), XPS, SEM, TEM and ICP. Also, photo-oxidative abilities were evaluated by decomposition of 4-chlorophenol (4CP) under ultraviolet light irradiations. No secondary oxide phases were formed in all the $VTiO_2$ powders, showing doping with various transition metal ions. When adding ions ($Ni^{2+}$ or$ Al^{3+ }$ and $Zr^{4+}$ ) having valance states or ionic radii greatly different from those of $Ti^{4+}$ , the $TiO_2$ powders of mixed anatase and rutile phases were formed, whereas in the case of additions of $^Fe{3+ }$ and $Nb^{ 5+}$ as well as no addition of metal ion the powders with pure rutile phase alone were formed. Among the prepared $TiO_2$ powders, Ni$^{2+}$ doped $TiO_2$ powders, containing a small amount of anatase phase, showed excellent photo-oxidative ability in 4CP decomposition because of relative decreases in electron-hole recombination and poisoning of $TiO_2$ surface during the photoreaction.n.

In this paper, to develop the ceramics with high $d_{33}$ and high $Q_m$ for ultrasonic transducer applications, $0.10Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.07Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.83Pb(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})_{0.83}O_3$ (PNN-PMN-PZT) ceramics were sintered at $940^{\circ}C$ using $CuO-Li_2CO_3-Bi_2O_3$ (CLBO) as a sintering aid by a traditional solid-state technique. The influence of zinc oxide additive on the physical properties of the prepared ceramics were systematically investigated. The R-T (rhombohedral-tetragonal) phase coexistence was found in the ceramics without zinc oxide additive and with increasing amounts of ZnO additive, the specimens showed a tetragonal phase. The formation of a liquid phase between ZnO and $Bi_2O_3$ contributed significantly to the grain growth of specimens. For the 0.1 wt% ZnO ceramics, the optimal physical properties of $d_{33}=370pC/N$, ${\varepsilon}_r=1,344$, $k_p=0.621$, and $Q_m=1,523$ were obtained.

In this paper, $Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.07}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.10}(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})_{0.83}O_3$ ceramics were fabricated by the conventional solid state method to obtain excellent dielectric properties for ultrasonic generators. The effects of 2nd calcination temperature on their microstructure and piezoelectric properties were systematically investigated. The tetragonality increased in the ceramics when 2nd calcination temperature increased to the optimized temperature at $750^{\circ}C$. At that temperature, excellent physical properties ($d_{33}=352\;pC/N$, ${\varepsilon}_r=1,687$, $k_p=0.570$, $Q_m=1,640$) were obtained for ultrasonic generator application.

Acoustic emission(AE) 센서의 감도개선을 위해 적합한 압전소자의 특성향상에 대해 연구하였다. AE 센서기술은 재료 내부에 마이크로크랙에 의해 변형과 손상이 생길 때 발생하는 기계적인 진동을 고감도 압전소자를 통해 전기적인 신호로 변환해 재료의 이상 유무를 알 수 있는 유용한 방법이다. AE 센서는 압전소자와 구리 캡 그리고 구리와 황동재질의 떨림판으로 구성되어 있다. 재료의 손상을 알기위한 변위가 낮을 경우 약한 AE 신호가 발생하며 검출하기가 어렵다. 미세변위에 의한 AE신호를 검출하기 위해서는 우수한 전기기계결합계수 (kp)와 압전상수($d_{33}$)를 갖는 압전소자가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 Pb$(Zr_{0.54}Ti_{0.46})O_3$ + x wt%$Cr_2O_3$ + y wt%$Nb_2O_5$ 조성에서 $Cr_2O_3$, $Nb_2O_5$ 첨가량 x, y 변화에 따른 압전특성과 AE센서특성을 고찰하였다.
