The effect of cerium concentration and the addition of $Sb_2O_3$ on the light emission of cerium-contained glass were investigated. The glass matrix composition was $20Y_2O_3-25Al_2O_3-55SiO_2$, the $CeO_2$ concentration ranged from 0.05 to 0.5 mol%, and $Sb_2O_3$ was added at concentrations of 0.02 to 0.1 mol%. The $Ce^{3+}$ and $Ce^{4+}$ absorption bands were observed at approximately 330 nm and 240 nm, respectively. A broad emission band at 400 nm, due to the 4f-5d transition of the $Ce^{3+}$ ion, was observed under illumination by a UV light at 330 nm. The photoluminescence intensity of $Ce^{3+}$ had a maximum value at a $CeO_2$ concentration of 0.1 mol%. Adding $Sb_2O_3$ decreased the $Ce^{4+}$ absorption intensity and enhanced the light emission intensity of $Ce^{3+}$ by about 45%.

We have fabricated good quality superconducting YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$(YBCO) thin films on Hastelloy(Ni-Cr-Mo alloys) metallic substrates with CeO$_2$and BaTiO$_3$buffer layers in-situ by pulsed laser deposition in a multi-target processing chamber. YBCO film with CeO$_2$single buffer layer shows T$_{c}$ of 71.64 K and the grain size less than 0.1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. When BaTiO$_3$ is used as a single buffer layer, the grain size of YBCO is observed to be larger than that of YBCO/CeO$_2$by 200 times and the transition temperature of the film is enhanced to be about 84 K. CeO$_2$/BaTiO$_3$double buffer layer has been adopted to enhance the superconducting properties, which results in the enhancement of the critical temperature and the critical current density to be about 85 K and 8.4$\times$10$^4$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 77 K, respectively mainly due to the enlargement of the grain size of YBCO film.ilm.

$CeO_2$ 박막은 강유전체 메모리 디바이스 응용을 위한 금속-강유전체-절연체-실리콘 전계효과 트랜지스터 구조에서의 강유전체 박막과 실리콘 기판 사이의 완충층으로서 제안되어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 $CeO_2$ 박막을 유도 결합 플라즈마를 이용하여 $Cl_2$/Ar 가스 혼합비에 따라 식각하였다. 식각 특성을 알아보기 위한 실험조건으로는 RF 전력 600 W, dc 바이어스 전압 -200 V, 반응로 압력 15 mTorr로 고정하였고 $Cl_2$($Cl_2$+Ar) 가스 혼합비를 변화시키면서 실험하였다. $Cl_2$/($Cl_2$+Ar) 가스 혼합비가 0.2일때 $CeO_2$ 박막의 식각속도는 230 ${\AA}$/min으로 가장 높았으며 또한 $YMnO_3$에 대한 $CeO_2$의 선택비는 1.83이였다. 식각된 $CeO_2$ 박막의 표면반응은 XPS와 SIMS를 통해서 분석하였다. XPS 분석 결과 $CeO_2$ 박막의 표면에 Ce와 Cl의 화학적 반응에 의해 CeCl 결합이 존재함을 확인하였고, 또한 SIMS 분석 결과로 CeCl 결합을 확인하였다. $CeO_2$ 박막의 식각은 Cl 라디칼의 화학적 반응의 도움을 받으며 Ce 원자는 Cl과 반응을 하여 CeCl과 같은 혼합물로 $CeO_2$ 박막 표면에 존재하며 이들 CeCl 혼합물은 Ar 이온들의 충격에 의해 물리적으로 식각 되어진다.

순수 $UO_2$에 첨가량 변화 및 ball-milling 시간에 따른 (U, Ce)$O_2$ 분말의 특성과 각 조건별로 제조된 분말을 압분 및 소결하여 (U, Ce)$O_2$ 분말 특성에 따른 소결성을 비교 조사하였다. 실험 결과로 부터 ball-milling시간이 길어짐에 따라 입자들은 미세화되고, Ce$O_2$ 함량이 증가할수록 압분, 소결밀도는 저하 하였으며, $CeO_2$는 소결성을 저하시키는 산화물임을 확인하였다. 10wt%,$CeO_2$ 가 첨가된 (U, Ce)$O_2$ 분말의 경우, ball-milling 4시간 수행한 분말의 소결체가 기공의 수도 적고, 구형에 가까왔으며, 소결밀도가 가장 높았다. 이는 4시간 ball-milling한 (U, Ce)$O_2$분말이 비표면적이 크로 그의 packing ratio가 적절하였기 때문이다.

The epitaxial growth of $CeO_2$ films has been investigated on three different substrates-Si(111), $SrTiO_3$(001), and MgO(001)-over wide range of growth parameters using oxygen-plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Pure-phase, single-crystalline epitaxial films of $CeO_2$ (001) have been grown only on $SrTiO_3$(001). We discuss the growth conditions in conjunction with the choice of substrates required to synthe-size this oxide, as well as the associated characterization by menas of x-ray diffraction, reflection high-energy electron diffraction, low-energy electron diffraction, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and diffraction. Successful growth of single crystalline $CeO_2$ depends critically on the choice of substrate and is rather insensitive to the growth conditions studied in this investigation. $CeO_2$(001) films on $SrTiO_3$exhibit the sturcture of bulk $CeO_2$ without surface reconstructions. Ti outdiffusion is observed on the films grown temperatures above $650^{\circ}C$.

Proton conductors have attracted considerable attention for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), hydrogen pump, gas sensor, and membrane separators. Doped $SrCeO_3$ exhibits appreciable proton conductivity in hydrogen-containing atmosphere at high temperature. However commercial realization has been hampered due to the reactivity of $SrCeO_3$ with $CO_2$. The chemical stability and proton conductivity are dependent on dopant type. The purpose of this work is to investigate chemical stability of $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}-Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-\beta}$ composites in $CO_2$ and $H_2$ gases. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was performed in gaseous $CO_2$ and electrical conductivity of the composites were also measured between 500 and $900^{\circ}C$ in air and $H_2$ atmosphere. $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}-Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-\beta}$ composite membranes showed good chemical stability of in $CO_2$ atmosphere and high conductivity at hydrogen condition. The hydrogen permeation of $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}-Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-\beta}$ composite membranes was investigated as a function of volumetric content of $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}$. The $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}-Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-\beta}$(6:4) membrane with a thickness of 1.0 mm showed the highest hydrogen permeability with the flux reaching of 0.12 $ml/min{\cdot}cm^2$ at $800^{\circ}C$ in 100%$H_2/N_2$ as feed gas.

Cerium oxide는 촉매의 효율을 증가하기 위해서는 비표면적이 높은 것이 필요하여 많은 연구가 되고 있다. 비표면적이 높은 세리아 나노 입자를 용매열 공정으로 합성하였다. 세리아 입자 형성에 전구체의 종류와 용매의 비율이 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 합성된 세리아의 응집 및 크기를 제어할 수 있었다. 합성된 입자의 크기는 약 3~13 nm이고, 분포는 균일하였다. 합성된 세리아의 결정상은 X-선 회절 분석결과 cubic이고, 미세구조는 투과전자현미경과 주사전자현미경으로 분석하였다. 합성된 세리아 입자의 비표면적은 BET로 측정하였다.

$CeO_2$ buffer layers have been deposited on YSZ single crystal substrates via a radio-frequency sputtering method. We focused on the texture development of $CeO_2$ with out-of-plane alignment and its effects on a superconducting YBCO layer, which was deposited by metal organic deposition. $CeO_2$ layers were grown epitaxially on single crystal YSZ substrates and subsequent YBCO layers were also grown epitaxially from $CeO_2$ layers. It was observed that the intensity of $CeO_2$(200) decreased with deposition temperature. ${\theta}-2{\theta}$ scan FWHM values of $CeO_2$(200) were inversely proportional to the peak intensities of $CeO_2$(200). The sample with the lowest $CeO_2$(200) intensity and poor out-of-plane alignment showed a strong reaction with the MOD-YBCO layer resulting in a thicker $BaCeO_3$ layer. The texture and superconducting property of the YBCO layer were affected indirectly by the formation of a $BaCeO_3$ layer at the interface between the $CeO_2$ and YBCO layers.

The $SnO_2$, Sn-doped $In_2O+3\; and \;Ce-doped\; TiO_2$ films have been prepared by RF sputtering method, and their opto-electrochemical properties were investigated in view of the applicability as counter electrodes in the electrochromic window system. These oxide films could reversibly intercalate $Li^+$ ions owing to the nanocrystalline texture, but remained colorless and transparent. The high transmittance of the lithiated films could be attributed to the prevalence of the $Sn^{4+}/Sn^{2+}\; and\; Ce^{4+}/Ce^{3+}$ redox couples having 5s and 6s character conduction bands, respectively. For the Ce-doped $TiO_2$ film, $(TiO_2)_{1-x}(CeO_2)_x$, an optimized electrochemical reversibility was found in the film with the composition of x = 0.1.

$CeO_2$를 첨가한 Y-Ba-Cu-0 초전도체를 포정반응을 포함한 준용용법으로 제조하여 미세조직과 초전도성을 관찰하였다. 첨가한 $CeO_2$는 포정반응중에 $BaCeO_3$로 변화하였으며, 이 $BaCeO_3$는 방향성 성장한 1-2-3 초전도상의 기지에 미세하게 분산된다. 초전도체의 $T_{c}$는 첨가된 $CeO_2$함량에 관계없이 90K 이상으로 매우 높았다. 이는 준용융공정을 적용함으로서 제2상물질을 초전도상으로부터 분리할 수 있었기 때문으로 사료된다.
