Pd-doped $SnO_2$ thick film with a pure tetragonal phase was prepared on patterned Pt electrodes by an ink dropping method. Nanostructured $SnO_2$ powder with a diameter of 10 nm was obtained by a modified hydrazine method. Then the ink solution was fabricated by mixing water, glycerol, bicine and the Pd-doped $SnO_2$ powder. When the Pd doping concentration was increased, the grain size of the Pd-doped $SnO_2$ thick film became smaller. However, an agglomerated and extruded surface morphology was observed for the films with Pd addition over 4 wt%. The orthorhombic phase disappeared even at a low Pd doping concentration and a PdO peak was obtained for a high Pd doping concentration. The crack-free Pd-doped $SnO_2$ thick films were able to successfully fill the $30{\mu}m$ gap of the patterned Pt electrodes by the optimized ink dropping method. The prepared 3 wt% Pd-doped $SnO_2$ thick films showed monoxide gas responses ($R_{air}/R_{CO}$) of 4.0 and 35.6 for 100 and 5000 ppm, respectively.

In order to improve EL performance, anthracene was doped into the 8-hydroxyquinoline-aluminum (Alq$^3$) light-emitting layer of organic double layered EL cells. The EL cells were fabricated on ITO glass substrates by vacuum deposition. Doping of anthracene to the light-emitting $Alq^3$layer was performed by means of co-evaporation. The doping concentration was changed in the range of 5 to 30 wt.%. It was confirmed that anthracene doping of appropriate concentration increased the available current density and brightness of the EL cells. Carrier mobility of the $Alq^3$ layer was measured by time of flight method. The influence of anthracene doping on the cell performance was discussed.

Recently, various Ni doping systems and thermal annealing systems have been developed for fabrication of polycrystalline silicon film using SGS (super grain silicon) for medium and largesize AMOLED panels. In this study, we compare the potential of Ni doping systems including ALD (atomic layer deposition), AMD (atmospheric metal deposition), in-line sputter, and crystallization annealing systems including batch type furnace, inline furnace, and RTA (rapid thermal annealing) developed for the SGS method. Additional requirements for those systems to be used for mass production of large AMOLED TVs are suggested based on evaluation results for both poly-Si films and TFT backplanes.

Amorphous Si and Co/Ti bilayers were sequentially evaporated onto 5- 10nm thick $\textrm{CoSi}_{2}$ and rapidly thermal-annealed(RTA) to form Co-polycide electrodes. Then, MOS capacitors were fabricated by doping poly-Si using SADS method. The C-V and leakage-current characteristics of the capacitors depending upon the RTA conditions were measured to study the effects of thermal stability of $\textrm{CoSi}_{2}$ and dopant redistribution on electrical properties of Co -polycide gates. Capacitors RTAed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 60-80 sec., showed excellent C-V and leakage-current characteristics due to degenate doping of poly-Si layers. But for longer time or at higher temperature, their electrical properties were degraeded due to $\textrm{CoSi}_{2}$ decomposition and subsequent Co diffusion. When making Co-polycide gate electrodes by SADS, not only degenerate doping of poly-Si layer. but also suppression of have been shown to be very critical.

Erythropoietin (EPO) is mainly produced in kidney and stimulates erythropoiesis. The use of recombinant EPOs for doping is prohibited because of its performance enhancing effect. This study investigated whether biosimilar EPOs could be differentiated from endogenous one by iso-electro-focusing plus double blotting and SDS-PAGE for antidoping analysis. The established method was validated with positive control urine. The band patterns were reproducible and meet the criteria, which was made by world anti doping agency (WADA). Isoelectric focusing was conducted in pH range 2 to 6. Recormon (La Roche), Aropotin (Kunwha), Epokine (CJ Pharm Co.), Eporon (Dong-A), Espogen (LG Life Sciences), and Dynepo (Shire Pharmaceuticals) were detected in basic region. All biosimilars showed discriminative isoelectric profiles from endogenous EPO profiles, but they showed different band patterns with the reference one except Epokine (CJ Pharm Co.). Next, SDS-PAGE of biosimilar EPOs resulted in different molecular weight patterns which were distributed higher than endogenous EPO. Commercial immune assay kit as an immune affinity purification tool and immobilized antibody coated magnetic bead were tested for the purification and concentration of EPO from urinary matrix. The antibody-coated magnetic bead gave better purification yield. The IEF plus double blotting and SDS-PAGE with immunoaffinity purification method established can be used to discriminate biosimilar EPOs from endogenous EPO.

Ta doped PZT thin films were prepared by a reactive sputtering method with a 3-gun magnetron co-sputter, and effects of Ta doping on physical and electrical properties of the films were studied. Within the doping range of 0 to 3.6 at%, Ta doping enhanced the crystallographic orientation of (110), but reduced that of (100). Ta doped PZT had a larger grain size of about 20 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ compared with that of 5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ for un-doped PZT. Pits and holes of PZT films which used to appear with annealing at high temperature due to evaporation of PbO were much suppressed with addition of Ta. The leakage current could be reduced down to 1.27$\times$10-8 A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the charge storge density as large as 25.8$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ was obtained.

Polyaniline (PANI)/Polyimide (PI) membranes were prepared and the effects of PANI contents and doping on the structural properties and gas separation properties were studied. The polyamic acid (PAA) solution was prepared by the polycondensation reaction of 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride (6FDA) and 4,4'-oxydianiline (ODA) in 1-methyl-2-pyrrolydinone (NMP) solvent. The PANI/PI blends were obtained by mixing PAA solution and PANI solution, and were doped with 1 M aqueous HCl solution for 24 h. The structural characterizations of the as-cast and doped membranes were examined by FT-IR, XRD, and TGA. The gas permeation experiments with $H_2$, $CO_2$, $O_2$, $N_2$, and $CH_4$ were carried out by variable pressure method at $30^{\circ}C$ and 5 atm. For all gases tested, the permeability coefficients of the blends decreased with increasing PANI content and the magnitude of permeability was in the order of $H_2$ > $CO_2$ > $O_2$ > $N_2$ > $CH_4$. The permeability for PANI/PI membranes decreased after the doping process while the permselectivity increased. For $H_2/CH_4$ separation, the doped PANI/PI (75/25) membrane has a permselectivity of 991.

Carbon aerogel is a porous carbon material possessing high porosity and high specific surface area. Nitrogen doping reduced the specific surface area and micropores, but it furnished basic sites to improve the $CO_2$ selectivity. In this work, N-doped carbon aerogels were prepared with different ratios of resorcinol/melamine by using the sol-gel method. The morphological properties were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Nitrogen content was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and the specific surface area and micropore volume were analyzed by $N_2$ adsorption-desorption isotherms at 77 K. The $CO_2$ adsorption capacity was investigated by $CO_2$ adsorption-desorption isotherms at 298 K and 1 bar. Melamine containing N-doped CAs showed a high nitrogen content (5.54 wt.%). The prepared N-doped CAs exhibited a high $CO_2$ capture capacity of 118.77 mg/g (at resorcinol/melamine = 1:0.3). Therefore, we confirmed that the $CO_2$ adsorption capacity was strongly affected by the nitrogen moieties.

Zirconium-doped $Li_{1.1}Co_{1-x}Zr_xO_2(0{\leq}x{\leq}0.05)$ powders as cathode materials for lithium ion batteries were synthesized using an ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method. Cyclic voltammetry and cyclic stability tests were performed, and the changes of microstructure were observed. The solubility limit of zirconium into $Li_{1.1}CoO_2$ was less than 5 mol%, and monoclinic $Li_2ZrO_3$ phase was formed above the limit. The Zr-doping suppressed the grain growth and increased the lattice parameters of the hexagonal $LiCoO_2$ phase. The Zr-dopiong of 1mol% resulted in the best cyclic performance in the range of $3.0{\sim}4.3V$ at 1C rate (140 mA/g); the initial discharge capacity decreased from 158 mAh/g to 60 mAh/g in the undoped powder, while from 154 mAh/g to 135 mAh/g in the Zr-doped powder of 1 mol% after 30 cycles. The excellent cycle stability of Zr-doped powder was due to the low polarization during chargedischarge processes which resulted from the delayed collapse of the crystal structure of the active materials with Zr-doping.

Eu(III)-doped $CeO_2$ nanorods were prepared by a co-precipitation method at room temperature, and their photoluminescence profiles were examined with different Eu(III)-doping concentrations and thermal annealing temperatures. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction crystallography and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy were employed to examine the morphology, crystal structure and photon absorption profiles of the nanorods, respectively. Additionally, their 2D and 3D-photoluminescence profile maps were obtained to fully understand the photoluminescence mechanism. We found that the magnetic dipole $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_1$ and the electric dipole $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$ transitions of Eu(III) were highly dependent on the doping concentration, annealing temperature and excitation wavelength, which was explained by the presence of different Eu(III)-doping sites (with and without an inversion center) in the $CeO_2$ host with a cubic crystal structure.
