  • In this study, the study of the selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) for controlling the $NH_3$ at $200{\sim}350^{\circ}C$ range was investigated. Physicochemical properties of the catalysts were determined using XRD and XPS analysis. In the case of catalytic activity according to thermal treatment condition, the reduction catalyst showed better activity than that of using the calcination catalyst. It was confirmed that the valence state of reduction catalyst was mainly $Pt^{2+}$ and $Pt^0$ as analyzed by XPS. Also, when comparing the reaction activities of $Pt/TiO_2$ catalysts according to the reduction temperature, the $NH_3$ conversion of the catalyst reduced at $700^{\circ}C$ showed the most excellent activity. However, the best activity of $NH_3$ conversion to $N_2$ was obtained for the catalyst reduced at $600^{\circ}C$.

  • Optical absorption and photoluminescences(PL) of MgGa2Se4 and MgGa2Se4 : Co2+ single crustals were guown by the Bridgman method have been investigated in the visible and near-in frared regions. The optical absorption spectrum showed three absorption peak at 760 nm(13158nm, -1, 1.63eV), 1640nm(6097cm-1, 0.75eV).and 2500nm(4000cm-1,0.49eV) which are assigned the electronic transitions between the ground state and excited states of Co2+ ions with Td sym-metry in MgGa2Se4 host lattice. In PL spectrum the visible emission bands as well as the infrared emission band in these single cuystals are obserned. The visible emission bands are explained due to the radiative transitions of electrons from quasi continusly distributed tarps below the bottom of the conduction band to acceptor levels above the top of the valence band in the proposed energy level scheme. At the same time, it is considered that the infrated emission bands are attributed to electron transitions from the deep levels to the acceptor levels. The mechanism of the optical transition os well explained in terms of the energy diagram of MgGa2Se4.

  • Autonomic and EEG responses of 38 college students were studied during 60-sec long presentation of International Affective Picture System (IAPS )slides evoking, according to subjective reports, negative (disgust, sadness, surprise) and positive (happiness, exciting) emotional. states. Observed were significant heart rate (HR) deceleration, large skin conductance responses (SCR), moderate respiration frequency slowing, reduction of frontal (F 3, F 4 ) and occipital (O 1, O 2 ) fast alpha, and increases of theta, delta and beta relative spectral power values during the first 30 sec of exposure of IAPS pictures. Analysis carried out to differentiate emotion categories according to autonomic responses indicated that observed HR deceleration was larger in magnitude in surprise and sadness than in disgust, SCR amplitude higher in sadness than in disgust. EEC showed significant differences in theta (F 3, F 4 ) and delta (O 1) power increase in disgust vs. happiness, fast alpha (F 3, F 4 ) power was lower in surprise than in happiness, and slow beta power higher. in happiness than in disgust (0 1). Despite some differences. observed within discrete emotion conditions, overall responses pattern of monitored parameters exhibited similar profiles with few variations, most. obvious. in disgust state, which suggests that affective visual stimulation elicits stereotypical responses in a given passive viewing paradigm. However, the magnitude of physiological responses may vary to certain extent across discrete emotional states making it possible to differentiate among particular experimentally-induced emotional states, e.g., disgust vs. sadness by ANS responses or disgust vs. happiness by EEG measures.

  • The dependence of the ionic conductivity on the B-site ion substitution in (Li0.5La0.5)Ti1-xMxO3 (M=Sn, Zr, Mn, Ge) system has been studied. Same valence state and various electronic configuration and ionic radius of Sn4+, Zr4+, Mn4+ and Ge4+(4d10(0.69$\AA$), 4p6(0.72$\AA$), 3d10(0.54$\AA$) and 3d3(0.54$\AA$), respectively) induced the various crystallographic variaton with substitutions. So it was possibleto investigate the crystallographic factor which influence the ionic conduction by observing the dependence of the conductivity on the crystallographic factor which influence the ionic conduction by observing the dependence of the conductivity on the crystallographic variations. We found that the conductivity increased with decreasing the radii of B-site ions or vice versa and octahedron distortion disturb the ion conduction. The reason for this reciprocal proportion of conductivity on the radius of B-site ions has been examined on the base of the interatomic bond strength change due to the cation substitutions. The results were good in agreement with the experimental results. Therefore it could be concluded that the interatomic bond strength change due to the cation substitutions may be the one of major factors influencing the lithium ion conductivity in perovskite(Li0.5La0.5) TiO3system.

  • A series of solid solutions with formula $Er_{1-x}Sr_xFeO_{3-y}, where x is from 0.0 to 1.0, has been synthesized by heating at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. X-ray diffraction shows these samples to be orthorhombically distorted perovskites for compositions up to x = 0. 6 and apparantly simple cubic perovskite structures from $0.8{\leq}x{\leq}1.0$. Lattice volumes are increased with the introduction of Sr. The mixed valence state of two kinds of Fe ion in these ferrite systems is analyzed by the Mohr salt titration method. Mossbauer spectra measured at room temperature for x = 0.0 and 0.5 compositions shows hyperfine splitting for iron (III) due to magnetic ordering and indicates that these samples contain octahedrally and tetrahedrally coordinated iron sites. Electrical conductivity measurements indicate that conduction in these samples apparantly occurs over the octahedral sites by a hopping mechanism.

  • In order to study the effect of substituted $Al^{3+}$ of goethite, which was collected from Shinpyeongli in Cheju Island, we used X-ray diffractometer and Mossbauer spectrometer. In X-ray diffraction analysis, the X-ray diffraction peaks of goethite are not detected due to the high substituted Al contents of goethite. Isomer shifts indicated that the valence of Fe ions is almost oxidized trivalent of high spin state. It is believed that the contents of substituted diamagnetic $Al^{3+}$ for $Fe^{3+}$ is about 15.5 mol%. It seems that Neel temperature and saturated magnetic hyperfine field of the clay goethite are about 250 K and 498 kOe, respectively. For the temperature lower than Neel temperature, quadrupole splittings of the clay goethite are greatly influenced by $Al^{3+}$ substitution. It is believed that the high decrease of Neel temperature and magnetic hyperfine field of the clay goethite results from the magnetic dilution produced by substituting the diamagnetic $Al^{3+}$/TEX> for $Fe^{3+}$.

  • This research proposes the use of a composition modulated (ZrO2)x(Al2O3)1-x film as a charge trapping layer for charge trap flash memory; this is possible when the Zr (Al) atomic percent is controlled to form a variable bandgap as identified by the valence band offsets and electron energy loss spectrum measurements. Compared to memory devices with uniform compositional (ZrO2)0.1(Al2O3)0.9 or a (ZrO2)0.92(Al2O3)0.08 trapping layer, the memory device using the composition modulated (ZrO2)x(Al2O3)1-x as the charge trapping layer exhibits a larger memory window (6.0 V) at the gate sweeping voltage of ±8 V, improved data retention, and significantly faster program/erase speed. Improvements of the memory characteristics are attributed to the special energy band alignments resulting from non-uniform distribution of elemental composition. These results indicate that the composition modulated (ZrO2)x(Al2O3)1-x film is a promising candidate for future nonvolatile memory device applications.

  • Arsenic which is found in several different chemical forms and oxidation states and causes acute and chronic adverse health effects is a toxic trace element widely distributed in soils and aquifers from both geologic and anthropogenic sources. Arsenic which has a mysterious ability to change color, behavior, reactivity, and toxicity has diverse chemical behavior in the natural environment. Arsenic which has stronger ability to readily change oxidation state than nitrogen and phosphorus due to a consequence of the electronic configuration of its valence orbitals with partially filled states capable of both electron donation and acceptance although the electronegativity of arsenic is greater than that of nitrogen and similar to that of phosphorus. Arsenate (V) is the thermodynamically stable form of As under aerobic condition and interacts strongly with solid matrix. However, it has been known that adsorption and oxidation reactions of arsenite (III) which is more soluble and mobile than As(V) in soils are two important factors affecting the fate and transport of arsenic in the environment. That is, the movement of As in soils and aquifers is highly dependent on the adsorption-desorption reactions in the solid phase. This article, however, focuses primarily on understanding the fate and speciation of As in soils and what fate arsenic will have after it is incorporated into soils.

  • $LiNi_{0.5-x}Co_{2x}Mn_{0.5-x}O_{2}$ (x = 0, 0.1, 1/6, 1.2, 0.3) were synthesized by the solid-state reaction method. The crystal structure was analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction and Rietveld refinement. $LiNi_{0.5-x}Co_{2x}Mn_{0.5-x}O_{2}$ samples give single phases of hexagonal layered structures with a space group of R-3m for x = 0.1, 1/6, 0.2, and 0.3. The lattice constants of a and c-axis were decreased with the increase in Co contents in samples. The thickness of MO2 slab was decreased and inter-slab distance was increased with the increase in Co contents in $LiNi_{0.5-x}Co_{2x}Mn_{0.5-x}O_{2}$. According to XPS analysis, the valence states of Mn, Co, and Ni in the sample are mainly +4, +3, and +3, respectively. The discharge capacity of 202 mAh/g at 0.1C-rate in the potential range of 4.7 - 3.0 V was obtained in $LiNi_{0.3}Co_{0.4}Mn_{0.3}O_2$ sample, and $LiNi_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Mn_{0.4}O_2$ gives excellent cycle performance in the same potential range.

  • This study was performed to study the photocatalyst for controlling the pollutant such as CO, C2H5OH and H2S by the UV light. This was shown in a catalyst having the same volume and the same surface area, that the structure in which the UV light to reach the interior structure exhibits more excellent activity. However, the activity of this activity of this photocatalyst removal of CO was very low. This problem can be solved by performing a reduction process by the addition of the precious metal series of Pt. Particularly, the amount of chemical species Pt0 incerased in the surface of Pt/TiO2 photocatalyst through the reduction process, which make the reaction activity of photocatalyst excellent to the removal of the CO.
