We prepared $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ by reacting stoichiometric mixture of LiOH.$H_2O$, $CoCO_3$.$xH_2O$ and $Ni(OH)_2$(mole ratio respectively) and heating at $850^{\circ}C$ for 5n. In the result of X-ray diffraction analysis, along fluctuation of the function of x in $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$(003) peak and (104) peak indensities and ratio were varied. We awared through XRD that from 0 to 0.5 at x in $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ is well formed for hexagonal structure at one step heat treatment($850^{\circ}C$), but if Ni involve at $LiCo_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_2$ hexagonal structure is not well formed. In the result of charge/discharge tests charge/discharge capacity and effiency is different about various cathode. Therefore, the appropriate charge/discharge method must be selected for good characteristics.

A fundamental study was developed concerning the novel solvent extraction of the tetravalent metal ions; zirconium(IV), hafnium(IV) and thorium(IV). Their extraction behavior in toluene was investigated with a recently synthesized naphthol-derivative Schiff base, 1-({[4-(4-{[(E)-1-(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)methyliden]amino}phenoxy) phenyl]imino}methyl)-2-naphthol (HAPMN). The spectrophotometrical examination of the complex formation between HAPMN and the Zr(IV), Hf(IV) and Th(IV) ions in acetonitrile revealed the formation of stable 1:1 complexes in the solution. After the thorium extraction in toluene, it was found that [Th(OH)3HA] was the respective deriving substance. While, in the case of zirconium and hafnium extraction, the extracted adduct was found to be [M4(OH)8(H2O)16Cl62HA]. The stoichiometric coefficients of these extracted species were determined by the slope analysis method. The extraction reaction followed a cation exchange mechanism.

The direct-patternable $SnO_2$ thin film was successfully fabricated by photochemical metal-organic deposition. The composition and chemical bonding state of $SnO_2$ thin film were analyzed by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) from the surface to the interface with Si substrate. XPS depth profiling analysis allowed the determination of the atomic composition in $SnO_2$ film as a function of depth through the evolution of four elements of C 1s, Si 2p, Sn 3d, and O 1s core level peaks. At the top surface, nearly stoichiometric $SnO_2$ composition (O/Sn ratio is 1.92.) was observed due to surface oxidation but deficiency of oxygen was increased to the interface of patterned $SnO_2/Si$ substrate where the O/Sn ratio was about 1.73~1.75 at the films. This O deficient state of the film may act as an n-type semiconductor and allow $SnO_2$ to be applied as a transparent electrode in optoelectronic applications.

The chalcopyrite-type $CuInSe_2$ is a remarkable material for thin film solar cells owing to its electronic structure and optical response. Single-phase sphere-like $CuInSe_2$ nanocrystallite particles were prepared by a facile noninjection method with triethanolamine as the complexing agent and the solvent simultaneously. The period of the reaction was the key to form single-phase $CuInSe_2$ nanocrystals at $240^{\circ}C$. TEM, XRD, XPS, EDX investigations were performed to characterize the morphology and the detailed structure of as-synthesized $CuInSe_2$ nanocrystals. All of the analysis results proved that the synthesized nanocrystals were pure phase and close to the stoichiometric ratio rather than a simple mixture. The band gap of the obtained $CuInSe_2$ nanocrystals was $1.03{\pm}0.03$ eV.

Nano-crystalline hexaferrite $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$(BaM) thin films have been prepared by the sol-gel method. A solution of Ba-nitrate and Fe-nitrates was dissolved in solvent with the stoichiometric ratio Ba/Fe=1/10. Films were spin-coated onto $SiO_2$Si substrates, dried and then heated in air at various temperatures. In films prepared at a drying temperature $T_d=250^{\circ}C$ and a crystallizing temperature 650${\circ}C$, single-phase BaM was obtained. High coercivities were obtained in these nano-crystalline thin films, 4~5.5 kOe for hexaferrite. Polycrystalline BaM/$SiO_2$/Si(100) thin films were characterized by Rutherford backscattering (RBS), thermogravimetry (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), as well as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The perpendicular coercivity $H_{C\bot}$ and in-plane coercivity $H_{CII}$ after annealing at 650${\circ}C$ for 2 hours were 4766 Oe and 4480 Oe, respectively, at room temperature, under a maximum applied field of 10 kOe.

Amorphous GaN film was deposited using a laser ablation of the highly densified GaN target. Through the surface morphological and compositional analysis of films deposited under various laser energies and Ar gas pressures, the film deposited under the pressure of 10 Pa were found to be amorphous GaN with the smooth surface. In particular, the film at 200 mJ/pulse showed the enhanced crystallinity and stoichiometric composition, compared with those of the films at relatively lower laser energy. The strong band-gap emission at 2.8 eV was observed from amorphous GaN film in the room temperature photoluminescence spectra, showing the highest efficiency in the film at 200 mJ/pulse under 10 Pa.

$\beta$-SiC was chemically vapor deposited by pyrolysis of MTS＋H2 gas mixture. The experiments were conducted in the temperature range of 1100~150$0^{\circ}C$ with a r.f. induction furnace under atmospheric pressure. The IR, XRD, EDS and AES analysis revealed that the free Si was always codeposited with SiC below 140$0^{\circ}C$, regardless of the total flow rate and MTS concentration, whereas $\beta$-SiC single phase was deposited at 150$0^{\circ}C$. C3H8 or CH2Cl2 as an excess C sources, was supplied with MTS in order to obtain stoichiometric SiC at low temperature. With the addition of C3H8 or CH2Cl2, the deposition rate was increased and $\beta$-SiC single phase could be deposited even at temperature as low as 110$0^{\circ}C$. In the absence of C3H8 or CH2Cl2, the microhardness of the layer was quite low (

Precipitated calcium carbonate(PCC), particularly calcite crystal, is extensively used as a pigment, filler or extender in various industries such as paper, paint, textile, detergents, adhesives, rubber and plastics, food, cosmetics, and biomaterials. PCC is conventionally produced through the gas-liquid carbonation process, which consists on bubbling gaseous $CO_2$ through a concentrated calcium hydroxide slurry. This study is aimed to find some factors for controlling the morphology of engineered PCC in lab-scaled mixing batch. The experimental designs were based on temperature variables, $Ca(OH)_2$ concentration, $CO_2$ flow rate, and electrical conductivity. The model of engineered PCC morphology was finally controlled by adjustment of electrical conductivity(6.0~7.0 mS/cm) and $Ca(OH)_2$ concentration(10 g/L). Orthorhombic calcite crystals were mostly created at high concentration and electrical conductivity conditions because the increased ratio of $Ca^{2+}$ and $CO{_3}^{2-}$ ions affects the growth rate of orthorhombic faces. Excess calcium spices were contributed to the growth of faces in calcium carbonate crystal, and the non-stoichiometric reaction was occurred between $Ca^{2+}$ and $CO{_3}^{2-}$ ions during carbonation process.

On-line conversion estimation of enzymatic esterification reactions in solvent-free media was investigated. In principle, conversion to ester can be determined from the amount of water produced by the reaction, because water is formed as a by-product in a stoichiometric manner. In this study, we estimated the water production rate only from some measurements of relative humidity and water balances without using any analytical methods. In order to test the performance of the on-line conversion estimation, the lipase-catalyzed esterification of n-capric acid and n-decal alcohol in solvent-free media was performed whilst controlling water activity at various values. The reaction conversions estimated on-line were similar to those determined by offline gas chromatographic analysis. However, when the water activity was controlled at higher values, discrepancies between the estimated conversion values and the measured values became significant. The deviation was found to be due to the inaccurate measurement of the water content in the reaction medium during the initial stages of the reaction. Using a digital filter, we were able to improve the accuracy of the on-line conversion estimation method considerably. Despite the simplicity of this method, the on-line estimated conversions were in good agreement with the off-line measured values.

Starting from the stoichiometric composition of $K_2$CO$_3$: Li$_2$CO$_3$: Nb$_2$O$_5$=3 : 2 : 5 with the mole ratio, $K_3$LiNb$_6$O$_17$ 17/ single crystals were grown using the Czochralski method. Although the starting melt composition corresponds to the $K_3$Li$_2$Nb$_5$O$_15$ crystals, the chemical composition of the as grown crystals appears to be $K_2.95$Li$_1.33$Nb$_6.17$O$_17$ or $K_2.60$Li$_1.17$Nb$_{5.44}$ 5.44/O$_{15}$ which relatively contain fewer Li ions than $K_3$Li$_2$Nb$_5$O$_15$ crystals. We investigated the influence of the deficiency of the Li ions in the tetragonal tungsten bronze structure through the measurements of DE loop, temperature dependent dielectric constant, differential thermal analysis and temperature dependent X-ray diffraction pattern.
