  • Europium doped yttrium oxide submicron-sized particles were prepared by ultrasonic aerosol pyrolysis. To examine the size effect of submicron-sized-particle, the photoluminescence of the particles was investigated. The particle size was controlled by pH, reaction temperature, molar concentration of yttrium in precursor solution. The PL intensity of submicron-sized particles was decreased with particles size. When the particle size is above about 150 times of Bohr radius of Y$_2$O$_3$, the optical property of the particles shows the bulk characteristics.

  • Sol-gel법을 이용하여 p-Si 기판위에 yttrium이 도핑된 ZnO (YZO)를 성장하였다. ZnO의 precursor로는 zinc acetate dihydrate를, yttrium의 source로는 yttrium acetate hydrate를 사용하였으며, 용매와 안정제로는 각각 2-methoxy ethanol과 monoethanolamine (MEA)를 사용하였다. yttrium의 doping 농도에 따른 영향을 알아보기 위하여 1~4 at.%로 제작된 YZO sol을 각각 p-type Si 기판에 성장하였으며, 이 후 furnace를 이용하여 500oC에서 1시간 동안 열처리하였다. 성장된 YZO 박막의 표면과 두께를 SEM을 통하여 확인하였으며, XRD를 통한 구조적인 특성을 분석한 결과 모든 박막에서 뚜렷한 c-축 배양성을 갖는 ZnO (0002)피크를 확인하였다. Hall effect를 통하여 YZO는 모두 n-type 특성을 나타낸다는 것을 확인하였으며, 광학적인 특성은 PL을 통해서 분석하였다. n-YZO/p-Si 이종접합의 전류-전압 특성을 분석한 결과 뚜렷한 정류특성을 나타내었다.

  • The Ce-doped YAG(Yttrium Aluminum Garnet, $Y_3Al_5O_{12}$) phosphor powders were synthesized by combustion method. The luminescence, formation process and structure of phosphor powders were investigated by means of XRD, SEM and PL. The XRD patterns show that YAG Phase can form through sintering at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. This temperature is much lower than that required to synthesize YAG phase via the conventional solid state reaction method. There were no intermediate Phases such as YAP(Yttrium Aluminum Perovskite, $YAlO_3$) and YAM(Yttrium Aluminum Monoclinic, $Y_4Al_2sO_9$) observed in the sintering process. The powders absorbed excitation energy in the range $410{\sim}510\;nm$. Also, the crystalline YAG:Ce showed broad emission peaks in the range $480{\sim}600\;nm$ and had maximum intensity at 528 nm.

  • Leaching kinetics for extracting yttrium from the coal fly ash was investigated in the presence of sulfuric acid during extraction. The leaching kinetics of yttrium were conducted at reactant densities of 5~1,000 g coal fly ash per L of $1.0{\sim}10.0N\;H_2SO_4$, agitation speed of 250 rpm and temperature ranging from 30 to $90^{\circ}C$. As a result, the leaching kinetic model was determined in a two-step model based on the shrinking core model with spherical particles. The first step was proceeded by chemical reaction at ash surface, and the second step was proceeded by ash layer diffusion because the leaching conversion of yttrium by the first chemical reaction increases with increased the time irrelevant to the temperature whereas it increases with increased the leaching temperature. The activation energy of the first chemical leaching step was determined to be $1.163kJmol^{-1}$. After the first chemical reaction, the activation energy of ash layer diffusion leaching was derived to be $41.540kJmol^{-1}$. The optimum conditions for leaching the yttrium metal of 60 % were found to be the slurry density of 250 g fly ash per L of $H_2SO_4$, solvent concentration of $2.0N\;H_2SO_4$, second step leaching of temperatures of $30^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours and then $90^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours at agitation rate of 250 rpm.

  • Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate alloys spectrophotometrically including yttrium of nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) alloys, which are used as substitutes for the regulation of beryllium and provide helpful improvements in Ni-Cr alloys. Methods: Four groups of specimens (ZN, ZY, SN and EM) were prepared for analysis. Color parameters were measured with a spectrophotometer, and color difference (∆E*) was calculated. The t-test and one-way analysis of variance test were used to determine significant difference, and the Tukey test was used to identify where the differences were. To measure the spectroscopic reflectivity, the spectroscopic reflectance was measured and converted into CIE L*, a*, b* color system. Results: The ∆E* value of each metal ceramic group after opaque firing of Ni-Cr alloy with and without yttrium was <2, and the total group color difference (∆E*) was below 1 in the dentin ceramic all experimental group. However, the a* and b* values of the metal ceramic groups were higher than that in the lithium disilicate all ceramic group, and the chroma was higher than the natural tooth. The brightness of all experimental groups was similar to that of the shade guide sample. Conclusion: Yttrium added to Ni-Cr alloys showed similar CIE L*, a*, b* values to Ni-Cr alloys that did not contain yttrium, indicating that yttrium had no effect on color in metallic ceramic systems.
