The structure of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass, bare glass and (100) Si substrates was not changed, but the crystallinity was improved by the polycrystalline ITO layer and (100) Si substrate. The composition of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass was nearly stoichiometric ((Ba+Sr)/Ti=1.08~1.09) and very uniform through all deposition process. But as the deposition temperature increases, the interdiffusion between grown thin film and ITO layer and between ITO layer and base glass is severer. $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass substrate was highly transparent. The refractive index($n_f$) of $(BaSr)TiO_3$ thin film deposited on ITO coated glass was 2.138~2.286 as a function of substrate temperature.

In order to improve the surface hardness of transparent plastic films, an organic-inorganic hybrid coating solution was sunthesized by the sol-gel method. Coating solutions that were prepared colloidal silica (CS), poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA), vinyltrimethoxysilane (VTMS), and [3-(methacryloyloxy)]propyltrimethoxy silane (MAPTMS) was varied with synthesizing parameters such as kinds of organic silane and weight ratio of CS to PMMA. Such coating solution was bar coated on the PET film, cured, and investigated on the chemical and physical properties of coating film. The organic-inorganic hybrid coating solutions have better properties at the pencil hardness and adhesion of coating film than those of an organic material such as PMMA.

The use of aluminum-based coagulants in water pretreatment is being carefully considered because aluminum exposure is a risk factor for the onset of Alzheimer's disease. Lightly burned-dolomite kiln dust (LB-DKD) was evaluated as an alternative coagulant because it contains high levels of the healthful minerals calcium and magnesium. An organic pore forming agent (OPFA) was incorporated to prepare porous granules after OPFA removal through a thermal decomposition process. A spray drying method was used to produce uniform and reproducible spherical granules with low density, since fine dolomite particles have irregular agglomeration behavior in the hydration reaction. The use of fine dolomite powder and different porosity granules led to a visible color change in raw algae (RA) containing water, from dark green to transparent colorlessness. Also, dolomite powders and granules exhibited a mean removal efficiency of 48.3% in total nitrogen (T-N), a gradual increase in the removal efficiency of total phosphorus (T-P) as granule porosity increased. We demonstrate that porous dolomite granules can improve the settling time and water quality in summer seasons for the emergent treatment of excessive algal blooms in eutrophic water.

Monochromatic amber phosphor in glasses (PiGs) for automotive LED applications were fabricated with $YAG:Ce^{3+}$, $CaAlSiN_3:Eu^{2+}$ phosphors and Pb-free silicate glass. After synthesis and thickness-thinning process, PiGs were mounted on high-power blue LED to make monochromatic amber LEDs. PiGs were simple mixtures of 566 nm yellow YAG, 615 nm red $CaAlSiN_3:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor and transparent glass frit. The powders were uniaxially pressed and treated again through CIP (cold isostatic pressing) at 200 MPa for 20 min to increase packing density. After conventional thermal treatment at $550^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, PiGs were applied by using GPS (gas pressure sintering) to obtain a fully dense PiG plate. As the phosphor content increased, the density of the sintered body decreased and PiGs containing 30 wt% phosphor had full sintered density. Changes in photoluminescence spectra and color coordination were investigated by varying the ratio of $YAG/CaAlSiN_3$ and the thickness of the plates. Considering the optical spectrum and color coordinates, PiG plates with $240{\mu}m$ thickness showed a color purity of 98% and a wavelength of about 605 nm. Plates exhibit suitable optical characteristics as amber light-converting material for automotive LED applications.

A transparent and colorless $80SiO_2-20TiO_2$(mol%) thin films on soda-lime-silica slide glass and sapphire substrate were obtained by spin-coating technique using tetraethyl orthosilicate and titanium trichloride as starting materials. The prepared film annealed at $750^{\circ}C$ showed a high transmittance and a low reflectance. For the $SiO_2-TiO_2$ films on slide glasses, a strong interaction between the sodium ion and oxygens is properbly the origin of the good stability to the high temperature and the high humidity.

Thick inorganic-organic hybrid films were prepared on ITO-coated glass substrates by the electrophoretic sol-gel deposition of polyphenylsilsesquioxane particles. The morphology of the deposited films changed from the aggregate of the spherical particles to monolith by heat treatment at temperatures higher than $200^{\circ}C$. Transparency of the films was significantly improved accompanied by the morphological change of the particles. The degree of the morphological change was governed by two factors; maximum heat treatment temperature and heating rate. Transparent thick films of ca. 3$\mu\textrm{m}$ in thickness were obtained only by heat treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2h with rapid heating from room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$. These films obtained were strongly adhered to the ITO-coated glass substrates and has a very smooth surface.

[ $CuAlO_2$ ] was used as P-type transparent conducting oxide. $CuAlO_2$ ceramics was obtained from heating a stoichiometric mixture of $Cu_2O$ and $Al_2OH_3$ at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 6h. $CuAlO_2$ ceramics were doped by the rate of 0, 5, 7 and 10% of the $BeSO_4{\cdot}4H_2O$. Sintered ceramics were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrical measurements. The room temperature conductivity of the ceramics, which were doped with $BeSO_4{\cdot}4H_2O$ 5wt% was of the order of $3.19\times10^{-3}S\;cm^{-1}$, and the density was $4.98g/cm^3$. Therefor the conductivity and density in $BeSO+4{\cdot}4H_2O$ 5wt% were better than other cases. Additionally, Seebeck cofficient measurements revealed that these ceramics were p-type semiconductors and the ceramic conductivity increased with the growth temperature.

We have studied the optical and electrical properties of a-IGZO thin films on the n-type semiconductor fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering method. The ceramic target was used in which $In_2O_3$, $Ga_2O_3$ and ZnO powder were mixed with 1:1:2 mol% ratio and furnished. The RF power was set at 25 W, 50 W, 75 W and 100 W as a variable process condition. The transmittance of the films in the visible range was above 80%, and it was 92% in the case of 25 W power. AFM analysis showed that the roughness increased as increasing RF power, and XRD showed amorphous structure of the films without any peak. The films are electrically characterized by high mobility above 10 $cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at low RF power, high carrier concentration and low resistivity. It is required to study further finding the optimal process condition such as lowering the RF power, prolonging the deposition ratio and qualification analysis.

Aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO) films were deposited on non-alkali glass substrate by DC magnetron sputtering with 3 types of AZO targets (doped with 1.0 wt%, 2.0 wt%, 3.0 wt% $Al_2O_3$). Electrical, optical properties and microstructure of AZO films have been investigated by Hall effect measurements, UV/VIS/NIR spectrophotometer, and XRD, respectively. Crystallinity of AZO films increased with increasing substrate temperature ($T_s$) and doping ratio of Al. Resistivity and optical transmittance in visible light were $8.8{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ and above 85%, respectively, for the AZO film deposited using AZO target (doped with 3.0 wt% $Al_2O_3$) at $T_s$ of $300^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, transmittance of AZO films in near-infrared region decreased with increasing $T_s$ and doping ratio of Al, which could be attributed to the increase of carrier density.

Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was encapsulated in transparent porous sol-gel silicate gels using by different organoalkoxysilane precursor. Characteristics optical absorption and fluorescence of NADH in the gels were examined with depending on NADH concentration and compared. Optical absorption in the aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) gel is highest and remains constant during aging the gel. Thus, it is found that NADH in the APTMS gel is most stable and activated. On the other hand, methyltriethoxysilane (MTES) gel presents the lowest optical absorption diminishing with aging the gel. Measurable increase of fluorescence with raising the NADH concentration is observed except for the APTMS gel due to its solubility in the buffer during fluorescence measurement.
