$300^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에서 동작하는 전통적인 $SnO_{2}$ 또는 ZnO와 같은 전통적인 세라믹 가스 센서보다 훨씬 낮은 온도에서 동작이 가능한 $Pt/MoO_{3}$ 가스 센서를 pellet 형으로 제작하였다. $Pt/MoO_{3}$ 가스 센서의 하고 온도(calcination temperature)에 따른 표면구조의 변화와 결정구조의 변화가 투과전자현미경(transmission electron microscopy)과 X-선 회절시험에 의하여 조사되었다. 투과전자현미경 사진으로부터 하소 온도가 증가할수록 시편에서 $PtCl_{x}$에서 Cl의 양이 줄어드는 것과 Pt위에 $MoO_{3}$의 얇은 막(overlayer)이 형성되어 있다는 것을 보여준다. 가스 흡착 시험 결과 표면구조의 변화에 따라서 시편의 수소 저장 능력이 변화함을 보여주었다. $50^{\circ}C$와 $150^{\circ}C$에서 수소가스 감지도를 측정한 결과 매우 우수한 결과를 보여 주었다.

Leak-before-break(LBB) approach has been shown to be both cost effective and risk reductive when applied to high energy Piping in nuclear Power Plants. For the Korean Next Generation Reactor (KNGR) development, LBB application is considered for the Main Steam Line(MSL) piping inside containment. Unlike the primary system leakages, the MSL leak detection systems must be based on principles other than radioactivity measurements. Among humidity, heat and acoustic noise currently being considered as indicators of leakage, we explored humidity as an effective one and developed ceramic-based humidity sensor which can be qualified for LBB applications. The ceramic material, sintered and annealed MgCr$_2$O$_4$-TiO$_2$, is shown to increase its electrical conductivity drastically upon water vapor adsorption over the entire temperature range of interest. With this ceramic sensor specimen, we suggested installation-inside-the-piping method by which we can detect leakage more rapidly and sensitively. In this paper, we describe the progress in the development and characterization of ceramic humidity sensor for the LBB application to the MSL of KNGR.

The influences of the load resistance $R_L$ on the magnetoelectric (ME) characteristics of $NiZnFe_2O_4+PZT$ composite were investigated in the non-resonance frequency range. The ME coefficient peak increases with increasing $R_L$, but the frequency indicating the ME coefficient peak decreases with increasing $R_L$. The maximum output power peak is approximately $9.3{\times}10^{-10}mW/Oe$ near $R_L=3.3M{\Omega}$ at f=280 Hz, and the ME coefficient seems to be saturated at $R_L>20M{\Omega}$. This frequency shift effect of $R_L$ shows that the frequency range for an ME sensor application can be modulated with the appropriate value of $R_L$. The ME output voltage has a good linear response to the ac field Hac and shows fair stability over a range of temperatures. The measured non-linearity of this sample is approximately 0.8%. This sample will allow for a low-strength magnetic ac-field sensor. The result from this sample will serve as basic data for a signal-processing circuit system.

Using tetrabutyl titanate as precursor, $Eu^{3+}$ doped $TiO_2$ nano-powder was prepared by sol-gel method, the nature of luminescence of nano-powder was studied. The interaction of chlorpyrifos with $Eu^{3+}$ doped $TiO_2$ was studied by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The results indicated the fluorescence intensity of $Eu^{3+}$ doped $TiO_2$ was quenched by chlorpyrifos and the quenching rate constant ($k_q$) was $1.24{\times}10^{11}\;L/mol{\cdot}s$ according to the Stern-Volmer equation. The dynamics of photoinduced electron transfer from chlorpyrifos to conduction band of $TiO_2$ nanoparticle was observed and the mechanism of electron transfer had been confirmed by the calculation of free energy change (${\Delta}G_{et}$) by applying Rehm-Weller equation as well as energy level diagram. A new rapid method for detection of chlorpyrifos was established according to the fluorescence intensity of $Eu^{3+}$ doped $TiO_2$ was proportional to chlorpyrifos concentration. The range of detection was $5.0{\times}10^{-10}-2.5{\times}10^{-7}mol/L$ and the election limit ($3{\sigma}$) was $3.2{\times}10^{-11}$ mol/L.

비파괴검사(NDT; Non-Destruction Test)는 제품의 기능을 손상시키거나 물리적으로 파괴시키지 않고 내부의 결함을 검사하는 방법이다. 이러한 방사선투과검사는 고에너지의 방사선을 사용하기 때문에 방사선작업종사자들의 방사선피폭을 방지하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 이에 본 연구는 PbI₂에 Gd₂O₂S:Tb를 결합하여 기존 PbI₂보다 방사선 검출성능을 더욱 향상시켜 방사선투과검사에서 선원누출 등의 사고를 즉각적으로 감지할 수 있는 새로운 구조의 방사선 센서를 제시하였다. 평가는 FLUKA 전산 모사를 통하여 감마선원에서 Gd₂O₂S:Tb 결합 전후의 변환 효율을 분석하였다. Gd₂O₂S:Tb가 결합된 PbI₂는 방사선 검출성능이 1.22배에서 3.22배까지 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로부터 본 연구에서 제시된 센서는 방사선투과검사 선원 감지용 방사선 센서로 적용 가능할 것으로 분석되었다.

Thin film ethanol sensors made from ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ decorated with multiwall carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) were manufactured by the electron beam deposition method. The morphology of the decorated ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$/MWCNTs (25:1 weight ratios) nanocomposite powder was investigated using the scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques. The thickness of thin films has been determined from ellipsometric measurements. The response of manufactured sensors was investigated at different temperatures of the sensor work body and concentration of gas vapors. Good response of prepared sensors to ethanol vapors already at work body temperature of $150^{\circ}C$ was shown.

$TiO_{2}-Co_{3}O_{4}$ humidity sensors were fabricated by conventional ceramic process and their humid sensing characteristics were investigated. The sample which was added 10wt% $Co_{3}O_{4}$ and heat-treated $1200^{\circ}C$ showed the highest sensitivity to humidity changes and improved a linearity. As $Co_{3}O_{4}$ content was increasing, the sensor consists a uniform pore distribution and grain in the surface. This was analyzed by SEM photographs.

In this study, in order to develop the composition ceramics for ultrasonic sensor with high $d_{33}*g_{33}$, $Pb_{1-3x/2}Bix(Mg_{1/2}W_{1/2})_{0.03}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.09}(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})_{0.88}O_3$(PMW-PNN-PZT) system ceramics were prepared using CuO as sintering aids. And then, their microstructure, piezoelectric and dielectric characteristics were systemetically investigated with bismuth substitution. The PMW-PNN-PZT ceramic specimens could be sintered at sintering temperature of $940^{\circ}C$ by adding sintering aids. At x=0.015 specimen, the density, electromechanical coupling factor($k_p$), dielectric constant, piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$) and piezoelectric figure of merit($d_{33}*g_{33}$) indicated the optimal properties of $7.90g/cm^3$, 0.67, 2,511, 628 pC/N, and $17.7pm^2/N$, respectively, for duplex ultrasonic sensor application.

SnO2-ThO2-PdCl2-In2O3 gas sensing ceramic systems were studied in order to lowr the operating temperatures and reduce the dependence of ambient temperatures and humidities. Sensing materials were coated by brush on the alumina tube followed by the impregnation of solidfier(ethylsilicate). Coated species were dried and sintered at 75$0^{\circ}C$ for 30min. carbon monoxide gas detecting sensitiviteis were measured in various ambinet temperatures and humidities. In the composition of 94SnO2-5ThO2-PdCl2 system carbon monoxide gas detecting sensors showed the highest detecting sensitivities and the lowest operating temperature(15$0^{\circ}C$). As the ambient temperatures and humidities were increased, sensitivities were decreased. Because the oscillation effects were observed at high humidities, it was suggested that the sensitivities of sensors depend greatly on the humidities.
