In this study, in order to develop the composition ceramics for lead-free ultrasonic motor, $[(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})_{0.95}Li_{0.05}(Nb_{0.96}Sb_{0.04})]O_3$ ceramics were fabricated using $Ag_2O$ as sintering aid and a conventional mixed oxide process and their piezoelectric and dielectric characteristics were investigated according to the $SrTiO_3$ substitution. $SrTiO_3$ substitution enhanced density, dielectric constant$(\varepsilon_r)$ and electromechanical coupling factor$(k_p)$. However, mechanical quality factor was deteriorated. At the 0.5mol% $SrTiO_3$ substitution, density, electromechanical coupling factor$(k_p)$, dielectric constant$(\varepsilon_r)$ and piezoelectric constant$(d_{33})$ of specimen showed the optimum value of 4.437g/$cm^3$, 0.457, 1294, 265pC/N, respectively.

The effects of Al-substitution on thermoelectric and charge transport properties of BiCuOSe compounds were investigated. The compounds were prepared by a solid-state reaction and consolidated by SPS (spark plasma sintering). In spite of the increase in the hole concentration with increasing Al amounts in BiCuOSe compound, the electrical conductivity at room temperature was kept constant due to the reduction of mobility. However, electrical conductivities of Al-substituted BiCuOSe compounds at elevated temperature (> 600 K) were higher than those of BiCuOSe, and this result was discussed in terms of it's the band gap energy. The Seebeck coefficient was drastically reduced when Al was substituted in Bi site, which indicated that the electronic structure was influenced by the Al-substitution into Bi-site.

In this study, in order to develop the lead-free piezoelectric ceramics with high piezoelectric and dielectric properties, $[(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})_{0.95}Li_{0.05}(Nb_{0.96}Sb_{0.04})]O_3$ ceramics were fabricated using $Ag_2O$ as sintering aid and a conventional mixed oxide process and their piezoelectric and dielectric characteristics were investigated according to the $SrTiO_3$ substitution. $SrTiO_3$ substitution enhanced density, dielectric constant(${\varepsilon}_r$) and electromechanical coupling factor($k_p$). However, mechanical quality factor was deteriorated. And also, Curie temperature ($T_c$), and phase transition temperature($T_p$) were rapidly decreased. At the 0.5 mol% $SrTiO_3$ substitution, density, electromechanical coupling factor($k_p$), dielectric constant(${\varepsilon}_r$) and piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$) of specimen showed the optimum value of $4.437\;g/cm^3$, 0.457, 1294, 265 pC/N, respectively.

In this study, in order to develop the multilayer piezoelectric actuator and ultrasonic resonator, PMN-PNN-PZT ceramics were fabricated by sintering with $Li_2CO_3-Na_2CO_3$ as sintering aids at $950^{\circ}C$ and their piezoelectric and dielectric characteristics were investigated as a function of PNN substitution. With increasing PNN substitution, dielectric constant(${\epsilon}_r$), electromechanical coupling factor(kp), and piezoelectric d constant($d_{33}$) were increased to $12 mol\%$ PNN substitution and then showed a tendency to decrease rapidly With increasing PNN substitution, crystal structure changed from tetragonal to rhombohedral at $12 mol\%$ PNN substitution and then secondary phase was appeared and its intensity was increased. At the $12 mol\%$ PNN substituted PMN-PZT composition ceramic sintered at $950^{\circ}C$, density, kp, $d_{33}$ and Qm showed the optimum value of $7.79 g/cm^3$, 0.599, 419 pC/N, and 894, respectively for multilayer piezoelectric actuator application.

By substituting Cd$\^$2+/ into both A-site and B-site in PNN-PZ-PT ternary perovskite material, it is possible to determine the effects of the substitution site of Cd$\^$2+/ on sintering behavior. Sintering was performed in the temperature range from 1000$^{\circ}C$ to 1300$^{\circ}C$. The substitution site of Cd$\^$2+/ is identified by XPS spectra. Although Cd$\^$2+/ is substituted into both A-site and B-site in PNN-PZ-PT, Cd$\^$2+/ prefers A-site to B-site. The density is influenced by substitution site of Cd$\^$2+/. If Cd$\^$2+/ replaces Pv$\^$2+/, weight gain is observed during sinterig process. On the contrary, if Cd$\^$2+/ replaces Ni$\^$2+/, weight loss is promoted during sintering. From these weight changes, it is believed that Cd$\^$2+/ changes the bonding strength between B-site cation and oxygen of octahedron in perovskite structure. The changes of lattice parameters as a function of Cd$\^$2+/ content were consistent with those of the bonding strength. The densities of A-site-doped compositions were higher than those of B-site-doped composition.

Thermoelectic properties of the typical thermoelectric host materials, the tellurides and selenides, are known to be noticeably changed by their volume change due to the strain [1]. In the bismuth telluride ($Bi_2Te_3$) crystal, a substitution of rare-earth element by replacing one of the Bi atoms may cause the change of the lattice parameters while remaining the rhombohedral structure of the host material. Using the first-principles approach by the precise full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method [2], we investigated the Ce substitution effect on the thermoelectric transport coefficients for the bismuth telluride, employing Boltzmann's equation in a constant relaxation-time approach fed with the FLAPW wave-functions within the rigid band approximation. Depending on the real process of re-arrangement of atoms in the cell to reach the equilibrium state, $CeBiTe_3$ was found to manifest a metal or a narrow bandgap semiconductor. This feature along with the strong correlation effect originated by the 4f states of Ce affect significantly on the thermoelectric properties. We showed that the position of the strongly localized f-states in energy scale (Fig. 1, f-states are shaded) was found to alter critically the transport properties in this material suggesting an opportunity to improve the thermoelectric efficiency by tuning the external strain which may changing the location of the f-sates.

In order to develop new soysauce using mountain edible herbs, cirsium setidens Nakai and comfrey were added to the raw material of soysauce as a partially substituting ingredient to wheat composing the total nitrogen. The changes of chemical composition of soysauce by the substitution of 1~5% cirsium setidens after four months of aging were similar to those of the control soysauce. On the other hand, total solid content was decreased, while the pH was increased by more than 7%. The total nitrogen and solid contents in the confrey substituted soysauce were increased with the increment of the amount of comfrey, but showed little changes of the pH. The mineral contents of calcium and potassium in the soysauce after four months of aging at 10% substitution of cirsium setidens were increased by 1.7 and 1.4 times, respectively. A significant increase in calcium(2.3 times as compared to the control) was also observed in 7% substitution of comfrey. The amino acid contents such as methionine, tyrosine and histidine were markedly increased at 3% substitution of cirsium setidens. With 5% substitution of comfrey, the contents of tyrosine, glutamic acid methionine were increased by 4.4, 1.8 and 1.7 times, respectively as compared to the control. The results of sensory evaluation revealed that overall acceptability of soysauce with 1~5% substitution of cirsium setidens and 5% of comfrey exceeded other samples composing different ratios of substituting ingredients.

This paper is to investigate the characteristics of a concrete in which river sand is partially substituted with crushed sand. Since river sand has a relatively small fineness modulus, there is a need to increase the fineness modulus of sand used in the manufacture of concrete. In an experiment, it was observed that when river sand had a fineness modulus of 2.0~2.4 and crushed sand had a fineness modulus of 2.8~3.5, the substitution rate of the crushed sand was preferably within the range of 25~50%. The experimental results also revealed that as the substitution rate of the crushed sand increased, the flowability of the concrete tended to increase. However, when the substitution rate of the crushed sand reached 75% or more, the workability of the concrete was considerably poor. Further, as the substitution rate of the crushed sand increased, the air content and the bleeding rate of the concrete were low.
