Perovskite Pb0.7Ba0.3Zn1/3Nb2/3O3 substituted with 0.3 mole fraction for Pb-site in PbZn1/3Nb2/3O3 relaxor and pyrochlore Pb1.83Ba0.29Zn1.71Nb2/3O6.39 were mixed and dielectric characteristics of this composites were investigated. Percolation limit of perovskite phase, which was determined by microstructural observation in the composite as an isolation of perovskite phase from pyrochlore matrix, was 28.9-47.5 vol%. Ferroelectric phase transition below percolation limit depends on a parameter which affects the propagation of lattice vibration between isolated perovskite phase and pyrochlore matrix. Therefore, it is believed that ferroelectric lattice vibration of isolated perovskite phase could be transfered to pyrochlore matrix when the oxygen octahedra are linked in 3-dimension and highly polarizable Pb2+ ions are contained in both phases.

Perovskite-type oxide catalysts in the $\textrm{LaMnO}_3$ family were prepared by both freeze drying and precipitation technique, and their catalytic activities with respect to the oxidation of CO with $O_2$ were measured in the composite gases. Freeze drying is a new technique for the prevention of migration of the solutes during drying. Therefore, the corrugated cordierite monolith fabricated with the Ø 1mm stainless steel bar was directly impregnated with nitrate solutions containing the appropriate cations, freeze dried and calcined. Precipitation was done by using $\textrm{(NH_4)}_2\textrm{CO}_3$ but the precipitated catalysts gave lower catalytic than the freeze dried samples due to, in part, relatively high calcining temperature. In this study, freeze dried composition had high catalytic activity, and their apparent activation energy for oxidation of CO was calculated by the rate plots using the data where the percent conversion of CO was less than 20%.

In this work, narrow-band green-emitting CsPbBr3 particles are embedded in commercialized glass composites by a facile dry process. By optimizing the method through sintering in glass frit (GF) composites including CsBr and PbBr2, used as precursors, the encapsulation of CsPbBr3 particles made them waterproof with green fluorescence. To improve the fluorescent properties by reducing aggregation of CsPbBr3, fumed silica (FS) is additionally used to help particles avoid bulking up in the glass matrix. The CsPbBr3 perovskite/glass composites are characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) maps, which support the existence of CsPbBr3 particles in the glass matrix. The photoluminescence (PL) properties demonstrate that the emission spectrum peak, full width at half maximum (FWHM), and photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) values are 519 nm, 17 nm, and 17.7 %. We also confirm the water-resistant properties. To enhance water/moisture stability, the composite sample is put directly into water, with its PLQY monitored periodically under UV light.

The potential candidates for IT-SOFCs cathode materials, $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ (BSCF) and $La_{0.6}Ba_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_{3-{\delta}}$ (LBCF) powders, were synthesized by a EDTA-citrate combined method from $Sr(NO_3)_2$, $Ba(NO_3)_2$, $La(NO_3)_3{\cdot}6H_2O$, $Co(NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$, $Fe(NO_3)_3{\cdot}9H_2O$, citric acid and $EDTA-NH_3$. The cathode performance of symmetrical electrochemical cells consisting of BSCF-GDC or LBCF-GDC composite electrodes and a GDC electrolyte was investigated using by AC impedance spectroscopy at the temperature range of 500 to $700^{\circ}C$. It was found that a single phase perovskite could be successfully synthesized when the precursor is heated at $850^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. Due to thermal expansion mismatch between BSCF and GDC, the composite cathodes with lower GDC content than 45 wt% were peeled off from the GDC electrolyte and their electrode polarization resistance was estimated to be high. The thermal expansion coefficient of BSCF-GDC composites was decreased with increasing the GDC content and the electrode peeling off did not occur in BSCF-45 and 55 wt% GDC composites. BSCF-45 wt% GDC composite electrode showed the lowest area specific resistances (ASR) of 0.15 and $0.04{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ at 600 and $700^{\circ}C$, respectively. On the other hand, LBCF-GDC composite cathodes showed higher ASR than the BSCF-45 and 55 wt% GDC and their cathode performance were decreased with the GDC content.

A dual-phase ceramic membrane consisting of gadolinium-doped ceria (GDC) as an oxygen ion conducting phase and $MnCo_2O_4$ as an electron conducting phase was fabricated by sintering a GDC and $MnCo_2O_4$ powder mixture. The $MnCo_2O_4$ was found to maintain its spinel structure at temperatures lower than $1200^{\circ}C$. (Mn,Co)(Mn,Co)$O_4$ spinel, manganese and cobalt oxides formed in the sample sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ in an air atmosphere. XRD analysis revealed that no reaction phases occurred between GDC and $MnCo_2O_4$ at $1200^{\circ}C$. The electrical conductivity did not exhibit a linear relationship with the $MnCo_2O_4$ content in the composite membranes, in accordance with percolation theory. It increased when more than 15 vol% of $MnCo_2O_4$ was added. The oxygen permeation fluxes of the composite membranes increased with increasing $MnCo_2O_4$ content and this can be explained by the increase in electrical conductivity. However, the oxygen permeation flux of the composite membranes appeared to be governed not only by electrical conductivity, but also by the microstructure, such as the grain size of the GDC matrix.

The spin-casted PLZT(9/65/35) thin films through polymeric sol-gel process were prepared on Pt substrate. The crack-free, uniform and dense films were obtained by post-annealing at the temperature between 35$0^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$. The composite structure mixed together with large grains called "rosette" and surrounding small grains were observed on the films annealed over $600^{\circ}C$. Pyrochlore phase was completely changed to perovskite phase above $600^{\circ}C$ with the increase of annealing temperature. Dielectric constant (k) was larger with the increase of film thickness and annealing temperature. from the measurements of dielectric constant as a function of measuring temperature, it was also observed that Curie temperature was shifted to higher temperature with the increase of film thickness and annealing temperature. The pyroelectric coefficient(P) of 10 times coated film annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ was 65 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$.K.$.K.

To improve warpage, delamination and the chemical reaction between 2 different co-fired materials, the bonding behavior with common glass was studied. As shown in the previous paper, the phenomenon of the infiltration is different with the composition of the glass. In particular, in the case of low temperature melting glass, infiltration is experimented in this study. GA-1 glass is infiltrated among $BaTiO_3$ particles below $800^{\circ}C$ and is made by glass/ceramic composite. Until the laminate is fired under $850^{\circ}C$, provskite phase is observed. Although in the case of GA-12 glass, the temperature of the glass infiltration is lower than it of GA-l glass, the perovskite phase already disappears at $800^{\circ}C$. As a result, GA-1 and GA-12 glasses are infiltrated among particles at low temperature, however, the chemical reactivity of the glass/ceramic and sintering temperature should be considered.

MPB 조성영역인 Zr/Ti=52/48의 composite ceramic target을 사용하여 RF magnetron sputtering 방법으로 기판온도 약 30$0^{\circ}C$에서 RZT 박막을 Pt/Ti/Si 기판위에 증착시켰다. 안정상인 perovskite 구조를 형성시키기 위하여 PbO분위기에서 furnace annealing 과 Repid thermal annealing을 실시하여 열처리 방법에 따른 상형성 및 계면반응과 그에 따른 전기적 특성을 고찰 하였다. Pt 의 두께가 250$\AA$인 경우 furnace annealing 시 $650^{\circ}C$에서 perouskite 상이 형성되었으나 Pt층이 산소의 확산을 방지하지 못하여 상부의 Ti 층이 TiOx로 변태하였으며 하부의 Ti는 Si 과 반응하여 Ti-silicide 롤 변태하였다. 또한 75$0^{\circ}C$,60sec 인 경우 Pt 층의 응집화가 관찰되어 하부전극으로서 적용이 적절하지 못하다. 급속열처리를 실시한 경우에도 마찬가지로 Ti 층이 TiOx 와 silicide 층으로 변태되었다. Pt의 두께가 1000$\AA$인 경우에도 250$\AA$와는 달리 RTA 시 (III)방향으로 Furace annealing 시(001)방향으로 우선 성장하였다. 이는 Ti(001), P(111),PZT(111)면의 lattic mismatch 가 매우 작은데다 RTA 시 계면반응이 거의발생하지 않아 PZT 박막이 (111) 방향으로 우선 성장한 것으로 보인다. Furnace annealing 경우는 심한 계면반응이 발생하여 Pt층에 어느 정도 영향을 주었기 때문에 우선성장 방향이 바뀌었다구 생각한다.

It is known that small amount of MgO in excess is often added to develop pure perovskite single phase of PMN-based composite, however, extra MgO precipitates in grains and inhibits densification of PMN. In this study PMN-PT-BT (PBT) powder was prepared by a conventional mixed oxide method using $(MgCO_3)_4{\cdot}Mg(OH)_2{\cdot}5H_{2}O$ instead of MgO. The precursor was heated at $500^{\circ}C/1h$ and its surface was modified with MgO sol. This effect was investigated in the aspects of sintering and dielectric properties. Small amount of added MgO sol ($0.5{\sim}1.0wt\%$) enhanced sintering substantially below $1000^{\circ}C$. The PBT with $0.5wt\%$ MgO sol sintered at $900^{\circ}C/2h$ had density of $7.62\;g/cm^3$, room temperature dielectric constant of 14800, loss of dielectric constant of $1.1\%$, which were comparable to those of the PBT sintered at $1000^{\circ}C/2h$. It was noticeable that the extra MgO precipitated mostly on triple points and grain boundaries and resulted in inhibition of grain growth.

New cathode materials $LaNi_{1-x}{Cu_x}{O_3}$ (typically $LaNi_{0.8}Cu_{0.2}O_3$) were synthesized using a co-precipitation method. The structure and morphology of the powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The composite material [$Ce_{0.8}Sm_{0.2}O_{2-\ddot{a}}$(SDC) and carbonate (${Na_2}{CO_3},{Li_2}{CO_3}$)], NiO and $LaNi_{1-x}{Cu_x}{O_3}$ were used as the electrolyte, anode and cathode, respectively. The electrochemical performance of La-Ni-Cu-O perovskite oxide at low temperatures ($400{\sim}550^{\circ}C$) was studied. The results showed that $LaNi_{0.8}Cu_{0.2}O_3$ precursor powder prepared through a co-precipitation method and calcined at $860^{\circ}C$ for 2 h formed uniform grains with diameters in the range of $400{\sim}500\;nm$. The maximum power density and the short circuit current density of the single cell unit at $550^{\circ}C$ were found to be $390\;mW/cm^2$ and $968\;mA/cm^2$, respectively.
