Single and complex metal oxide catalysts supported onto a commercial DT51D $TiO_2$ have been investigated for gas-phase TCE oxidation in a continuous flow type fixed-bed reaction system to develop a better design approach to catalysts for this reaction. Among the $TiO_2$-supported single metal oxides used, i.e., $CrO_x,\;FeO_x,\;MnO_x,\;LaO_x,\;CoO_x,\;NiO_x,\;CeO_x\;and\;CuO_x$, with the respective metal contents of 5 wt.%, the $CrO_x/TiO_2$ catalyst was shown to be most active for the oxidative TCE decomposition, depending significantly on amounts of $CrO_x\;on\;TiO_2$. The use of high $CrO_x$ loadings greater than 10 wt.% caused lower activity in the catalytic TCE oxidation, which is probably due to production of $Cr_2O_3$ crystallites on the surface of $TiO_2$. $CrO_x/TiO_2$-supported $CrO_x$-based bimetallic oxide catalysts were of particular interest in removal efficiency for this TCE oxidation reaction at reaction temperatures above $200^{\circ}C$, compared to that obtained with $CrO_x$-free complex metal oxides and a 10 wt.% $CrO_x/TiO_2$ catalyst. Catalytic activity of 5 wt.% $CrO_x-5$ wt.% $LaO_x$ in the removal reaction was similar to or slightly higher than that acquired for the $CrO_x$-only catalyst. Similar observation was revealed for 5 wt.% $CrO_x$-based bimetallic oxides consisting of either 5 wt.% $MnO_x,\;CoO_x,\;NiO_x\;or\;FeO_x$. These results represent that such $CrO_x$-based bimetallic systems for the catalytic TCE oxidation on significantly minimize the usage of $CrO_x$ that is well known to be one of very toxic heavy metals, and offer a very useful technique to design new type catalysts for reducing chlorinated volatile organic substances.

Phsysical and dielectric properties of $(1-x)CaTiO_3-xLa(Zn_{1/2}Ti_{1/2})O_3$ ceramics were investigated at the temperature range of $25^{\circ}C$ to $80^{\circ}C$ at the frequency of 6 GHz. As increasing addition of the amount of $La(Zn_{1/2}Ti_{1/2})O_3$ to x = 5 mol,Q value was increased due to grain growth and increase of density. For more addition, Q value decreased due to electrical defect. Temperature coefficient of resonant frequency could be controlled by the amount of $La(Zn_{1/2}Ti_{1/2})O_3$, which could be explained by volume mixing rule.

It was examined that the relationship between microstructures, electrical properties and crystal structure of (1-x)CaMnO$_3$-xCaTiO$_3$solid solution system which was made by mixing a semiconducting material CaMnO$_3$of low resistance and a dielectric material CaTiO$_3$of high resistance with variable ratios (x=0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.0). As the CaTiO$_3$increased, the resistance, B constant and lattice constant were increased, but the grain size was decreased. On particular, above 50wt% of CaTiO$_3$, the resistance at 2 5$^{\circ}C$ was rapidly increased due to the correlation in connectivity of the lattices between the conductive Mn$^{+4}$ octahedron and the insulative Ti$^{+4}$ octahedron.ron.

The Ba1-xSrxTiO3 thin films deposited on ITO-coated glass substrate at 55$0^{\circ}C$ by rf magnetron sputtering method have individual preferential orientations as a function of composition (X=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) due to the stress relief interactions among the intrinsic compressive stress, thermal tensile stress adn extrinsic compressive stress (compressive stress in case of BaTiO3(Tc=12$0^{\circ}C$) and Ba0.75Sr0.25TiO3(Tc=57$^{\circ}C$)). This behavior also appears on the (BaSr)TiO3 thin films (X=0.5) deposited on ITO-coated glass substrate at deposition temperature between 35$0^{\circ}C$ and 55$0^{\circ}C$. The composition of Ba1-xSrxTiO3 thin films deposited on ITO-coated glass substrate at 55$0^{\circ}C$ is close to stoichiometry (1.009~1.089 in A/B ratio), but the compositional deviation from a stoichiometry is larger as SrTiO3 is added. The morphology of Ba1-xSrxTiO3 thin films is very similar for over all substrate temperatures, and the roughness due to the differences of cluster size is the smallest at X=0.25.

The (1-x)MgTiO$_3$-xSrTiO$_3$(x=0.02∼0.08) ceramics were fabricated by conventional mixed oxide method. The sintering temperature and time were 1250$^{\circ}C$∼1400$^{\circ}C$, 2hr., respectively. The structural and microwave dielectric properties were investigated by varying sintering temperature and composition ratio. In the (1-x)MgTiO$_3$-xSrTiO$_3$(x=0.02) ceramics, the cubic SrTiO$_3$and hexagonal MgTiO$_3$phases were coexisted. The dielectric constant was increased and the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency( $\tau_f$) was decreased with addition of SrTiO$_3$. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency($\tau_f$) was gradually varied from negative value to positive value with increasing the SrTiO$_3$.

Visible-light-active $TiO_2-_xN_x$ nanoparticles with a homogeneous anatase crystalline structure were successfully prepared through a hydrolysis of $TiCl_4$ with ammonia solution. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), $N_2$-sorption, and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS) techniques. The light absorption onset shifted from 390 nm on pure $TiO_2$ to the visible region at 530 nm on nitrogen-doped $TiO_2$. A clear decrease in the band gap was deduced from the DRS results. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated from the photodegradation of congo red solution under visible light irradiation. The photocatalyst showed the highest photocatalytic activity at an optimal value of nitrogen doping concentration. This was suggested that the nitrogen doping should have an important effects on the improvement of photocatalytic activity.

A $BaTiO_3$, ferroelectric material, was mixed $SrTiO_3$, $(x)BaTiO_3-(1-x)SrTiO_3$($0.7{\leq}x{\leq}1$) ceramic capacitor with stable electrical properties in high voltage was fabricated. And microstructure, electrical property were investigated with $SrTiO_3$ mol ratio. The shrinkage, open porosity, sintering density were predominated at $9BaTiO_3-0.1SrTiO_3$. Increasing $SrTiO_3$ mol ratio, curie temperature was shifted at low temperature and maximum permittivity was increased. Also, $0.9BaTiO_3-0.1SrTiO_3$ was showed stable dielectric properties at $25{\sim}80[^{\circ}C]$. V-I properties of specimen were observed in the temperature range of $21{\sim}143[^{\circ}C]$, were divided into three regions. The region I below 10[kV/cm] was shown Ohmic conduction, the region II from 10 to 30[kV/cm] was explained by the Poole-Frenkel emission theory and the region III above 30[kV/cm] was analysed by the tunneling effect.

Two NbCx-C1-x/Y2O3/Ti sputter-coated Al2O3 substrates (L 5.5 cm$\times$W 0.5 cm) were diffusion bonded together using hot press method at 95$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours under 1 MPa of applied pressure. 4 points bending tests were used to evaluate the mechanical performance of these precracked laminate beams. Two types of mechanical responses were observed: crack penetration through the interface for x=0.75, 1 and crack deflection into an interface for x=0.25, 0.5. The Al2O3/NbCx-C1-x/Y2O3/Ti system suggested here has been proves to be effective for the thermokinetical stability and tailorability of the interfaces of Al2O3/Ti composites at 95$0^{\circ}C$.

Polycrystalline $Ti_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ thin films on $SiO_2$ (200 nm)/Si (100) substrates were prepared using liquid-delivery metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Microstructures and ferromagnetic properties were investigated as a function of doped Co concentration. Ferromagnetic behaviors of polycrystalline films were observed at room temperature, and the magnetic and structural properties strongly depended on the Co distribution, which varied widely with doped Co concentration. The annealed $Ti_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ thin films with $x{\leq}0.05$ showed a homogeneous structure without any clusters, and pure ferromagnetic properties of thin films are only attributed to the $Ti_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ (TCO) phases. On the other hand, in case of thin films above x=0.05, Co clusters formed in a homogeneous $Ti_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ Phase, and the overall ferromagnetic (FM) properties depended on both $FM_{TCO}$ and $FM_{Co}$. Co clusters with about 10nm-150nm size decreased the value of Mr (the remanent magnetization) and increased the saturation magnetic field.

We synthesized $TiO_2$ ($Ru_x/TiO_2$) incorporating $TiO_2$ and Ru via an one-step hydrothermal method. The physical properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The prepared samples were applied as a catalyst for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde using molecular oxygen ($O_2$). Especially, the catalytic activities increased as the contents of ruthenium in $TiO_2$ increased without the formation of any byproducts.
