The importance of rechargeable lithium cells has been emphasized. So a large variety of materials has been discovered and evaluated for use as reversible cathodes and electroyltes. This paper examines the charge/discharge properties and the charge/discharge cycling life of Li$_2$O-P$_2$O-V$_2$O$_{5}$Li cells. In audition, DTA tests were carried out on Li$_2$O-P$_2$O-V$_2$O$_{5}$ glass. As a result the best performance was achieved when 0.3Li$_2$O-0.1P$_2$O$_{5}$-0.6V$_2$O$_{5}$Li cells was mixed with SP270. that is discharge capacity of 240mAh/g have been achieved. In addition this battery exhibited good cycling performance. Considering these results we expected utilization of the Li$_2$O-P$_2$O-V$_2$O$_{5}$ glass as a cathode material in a secondary battery.y battery.

Effects of compositions on the microwave dielectric properties of the MgO-$TiO_2$ system were investigated as a function of the molar ratio of MgO to $TiO_2$ ($0.9{\leq}MgO/TiO_2\;(x){\leq}1.2$). With the compositional changes, secondary phases of $MgTi_2O_5$ and $Mg_2TiO_4$ were also detected along with $MgTiO_3$. Microwave dielectric properties of the specimens were dependent on the types of phases developed in the sintered specimens. A single phase of $MgTiO_3$ showed a dielectric constant (K) of 18.2, a quality factor (Qf) of 198,000 GHz, and a temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (TCF) of $-51\;ppm/^{\circ}C$. However, the dielectric properties of the specimens with a secondary phase of $MgTi_2O_5$ (K=19.9, Qf=48,000 GHz) and/or $Mg_2TiO_4$ (K=15.6, Qf=56,000 GHz) were worsened. Dependence of the microwave dielectric properties on the secondary phase of the MgO-$TiO_2$ system was also discussed in terms of dielectric mixing rules.

The effects of the addition of either monoclinic $ZrO_2$($ZrO_2$(m)) or tetragonal $ZrO_2$($ZrO_2$(t)) containing 5.35wt% $Y_2O_3$ on the physical properties and electrical conductivity of TEX>$Al_2O_3$ were investigated. The addition of $ZrO_2$(m) and $ZrO_2$(t) increased sintered density of $Al_2O_3$. The Vickers hardness also increased as addition of >($ZrO_2$(t) increased going through a maximum at 20wt% and the hardness of the specimens was found to be dependent on the sintered density. The addition of $ZrO_2$(t) improved the hardness of $Al_2O_3$-$ZrO_2$ systems and the $ZrO_2$(m) addition showed the better effect on the thermal shock property of $Al_2O_3$-$ZrO_2$ systems than that of the $ZrO_2$(t) addition. Above 15wt% addition of $ZrO_2$(t), the electrical conductivity is gradually increased with increasing applied voltage but not effects by addition of $ZrO_2$(m).

We investigated the electrical characterisitics of T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ (tantalum pentoxide) film and Ti-O/T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ film deposited on $Al_2$ $O_3$based substrate. Ta (tantalum) electrode and $Al_2$ $O_3$ substrate was used for the purpose of simplifying the manufacturing process in IPD's (integrated passive devices). Dielectric materials (T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ and Ti-O/T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ films) deposited on Ta/Ti/A $l_2$ $O_3$ were annealed at 700 $^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec. in vacuum. The XRD results showed that as-deposited T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ film possessed amorphous structure, which was transformed to crystallines by rapid thermal heat treatment. We compared the lnJ- $E^{{\frac}{1}{2}}$, C-V, C-F of both as-deposited and annealed dielectric thin films deposited on Ta bottom electrode. From this results, we concluded that the leakage current could be reduced by introducing Ti-O buffer layer and conduction mechanisms of T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ and Ti-O/T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ could be interpreted appropriately by Schottky emission effect.

$SnO_2$-mixed and Sn-doped $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were synthesized via a hydrothermal process. $SnO_2$-mixed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles prepared in a neutral condition consisted of anatase $TiO_2$ nanoparticles(diamond shape, ~25 nm) and cassiterite $SnO_2$ nanoparticles(spherical shape, ~10 nm). On the other hand, Sn-doped $TiO_2$ nanoparticles obtained under a high acidic condition showed a crystalline phase corresponding to rutile $TiO_2$. As the Sn content increased, the particle shape changed from rod-like(d~40 nm, 1~200 nm) to spherical(18 nm) with a decrease in the particle size. The peak shift in the XRD results and a change of the c-axis lattice parameter with the Sn content demonstrate that the $TiO_2$ in the rutile phase was doped with Sn. The photocatalytic activity of the $SnO_2$-mixed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles dramatically increased and then decreased when the $SnO_2$ content exceeded 4%. The increased photocatalytic activity is mainly attributed to the improved charge separation of the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles with the $SnO_2$. In the case of Sn-doped $TiO_2$ nanoparticles, the photocatalytic activity increased slightly with the Sn content due most likely to the larger energy bandgap caused by Sn-doping and the decrease in the particle size. The $SnO_2$-mixed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles generally exhibited higher photocatalytic activity than the Sn-doped $TiO_2$ nanoparticles. This was caused by the phase difference of $TiO_2$.

A multilayer tower-type photoreactor, in which $TiO_2$-coated glass-tubes were installed, was used to measure the vapor-phase BTEX removal efficiencies by ozone oxidation ($O_3$/UV), photocatalytic oxidation ($TiO_2$/UV) and the combination of ozone and photocatalytic oxidation ($O_3/TiO_2$/UV) process, respectively. The experiments were conducted under various relative humidities, temperatures, ozone concentrations, gas flow rates and BTEX concentrations. As a result, the BTEX removal efficiency and the oxidation rate by $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system were highest, compared to $O_3$/UV and $TiO_2$/UV system. The $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system accelerated the low oxidation rate of low-concentration organic compounds and removed organic compounds to a large extent in a fixed volume of reactor in a short time. Therefore, $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system as a superimposed oxidation technology was developed to efficiently and economically treat refractory VOCs. Also, this study demonstrated feasibility of a technology to scale up a photoreactor from lab-scale to pilot-scale, which uses (i) a separated light-source chamber and a light distribution system, (ii) catalyst fixing to glass-tube media, and (iii) unit connection in series and/or parallel. The experimental results from $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system showed that (i) the highest BTEX removal efficiencies were obtained under relative humidity ranging from 50 to 55% and temperature ranging from 40 to $50^{\circ}C$, and (ii) the removal efficiencies linearly increased with ozone dosage and decreased with gas flow rate. When applying Langmuir-Hinshelwood model to $TiO_2$/UV and $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system, reaction rate constant for $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system was larger than that for $TiO_2$/UV system, however, it was found that adsorption constant for $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system was smaller than that for $TiO_2$/UV system due to competitive adsorption between organics and ozone.

Diopside is a ceramic material with excellent physical and chemical properties. However, when it is applied as an LED packaging material, heat dissipation of the LED element is not sufficient due to its relatively lower thermal conductivity, which may cause degradation of the LED function. In this study, glass-ceramics based on a $ZrO_2-CaO-MgO-SiO_2$ system, in which diopside is the main crystal phase, were prepared by heat-treating the glass, which was composed of zircon ($ZrO_2-SiO_2$) powders and diopside ($CaO-MgO-2SiO_2$) powders. The possibility of using the glass-ceramics as a packaging material for LEDs was then investigated by analyzing the density, shrinkage, thermal conductivity, and phases generated according to the amount of zircon powder added. The density and shrinkage of specimens decreased slightly and then increased again with the amount of $ZrO_2-SiO_2$ added within a range of 0~0.38 mol. Even though the crystal phase of zircon does not appear in the $ZrO_2-CaO-MgO-SiO_2$ system, the glass containing 0.38 mol zircon powder showed the highest thermal conductivity, 1.85 W/mK, among the specimens fabricated in this study: this value was about 23% higher than that of pure diopside. It was found that the thermal conductivity of the glass-ceramics based on a $ZrO_2-CaO-MgO-SiO_2$ system was closely related to the density, but not to the phase type. Zirconia ($ZrO_2$), a component oxide of zircon, plays an important role in increasing the density of the specimen. Furthermore the thermal conductivity of glass-ceramics based on a $ZrO_2-CaO-MgO-SiO_2$ system showed a nearly linear relationship with thermal diffusivity.

$TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ nanocomposite thin film was deposited on the glass substrates using a dip coating technique. The morphology, surface composition, surface hydroxyl groups, photocatalytic activity and hydrophilic properties of the thin film were investigated by AFM, XPS, methyl orange decoloring rate and water contact angle measurements. The hydroxyl content for $TiO_2$, $TiO_2-SiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ nanocomposite films was calculated to be 11.6, 17.1 and 20.7%, respectively. $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ film turned superhydrophilic after 180-min irradiation with respect to pure $TiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2$ thin films. The photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange for $TiO_2$, $TiO_2-SiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ thin films was measured as 38.19, 58.71 and 68.02%, respectively. The results indicated that $SiO_2$ and $In_2O_3$ had a significant effect on the hydrophilic, photocatalytic and self-cleaning properties of $TiO_2$ thin film.

The properties of the powders of the system Al2O3-ZrO2-Y2O3 prepared by precipitation method were investigated. Al2(SO4)3$.$18H2O3, ZrOCl2$.$8H2O and YCl3$.$6H2O were used as starting materials. Amorphous aluminum hydrate prepared by precipitation method was completely transformed to alpha Al2O3 as a result of calcining at 1100$^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr and gamma, delta and theta phases appeared as transition phases. In ZrO2-Y2O3 system prepared by co-precipitation method, the crystallization temperature of ZrO2 was increase with Y2O3 contents. The coupled crystallization occured in coprecipitated Al2O3-ZrO2-Y2O3 system, therefore the formation temperature of alpha Al2O3 and ZrO2-Y2O3 system. In this ternary system, the powder morphology showed a particular shape which was composed of large Al2O3 grains having small spherical ZrO2 particles within large Al2O3 grain and relatively large ZrO2 particles along the grian boundaries.

The ferrimagnetic glass-ceramics in the system Fe2O3-CaO-SiO2 for hyperthermia were investigated. Glasses could be prepared up to the content of 40 wt% of Fe2O3 and below the weight ratio of 1.0 of CaO/SiO2. The maximum saturation magnetization and the maximum coercive force were 29.85 emu/g and 340.1 Oe respectively, for a glass 40Fe2O3.20CaO.40SiO2 composition heat-treated at 95$0^{\circ}C$ for 8 hours. And for a glass 40Fe2O3.30CaO.30SiO2 composition the maximum saturation magnetization and the maximum coercive force were 18.47 emu/g and 374.4 Oe heat-treated at 1,00$0^{\circ}C$ and 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 8 hours respectively. The maximum hysteresis loss was 1,726.3 cal/g for a glass 40Fe2O3.20CaO.40SiO2 composition heat-treated at 95$0^{\circ}C$ for 8 hours. It was found that the ferrimagnetic Fe2O3.CaO.SiO2 glass-ceramics was little injurious to human body as results of biocompatibility test and biotoxicity test.
