The compound titanium (III) pyrophosphate, KTiP2O7 has been prepared and the crystal structure of the compound has been determined by the X-ray diffraction techniques. It crytallizes in the space group P21/a of the monoclinic system with four formula units in a cell of dimensions a=8.210(3), b=10.292(2), c=7.434(1)Å and β=106.71(2)°. The structure consists of the framework possessing corner-sharing octahedral TiO6 and pyrophosphate groups. As a result, a tunnel structure has been constructed and the K+ cations reside inside the tunnel. KTiP2O7 is isostructural with other trivalent metal pyrophosphates such as KAlP2O7 and RbTiP2O7 but the size difference of the alkali metals causes the variation in the structure. The classical charge balance of the compound can be described as [K+][Ti3+][P24O74-].

충북 영동군 동창광산에서 산출되는 일라이트(illite)광선의 표면화학특성을 전위차 적정 실험과 FITEQL3.2 프로그램을 이용하여 연구하였다. 정량 Xtjs 회절 분석에 의한 일라이트 광석의 광물조석은 석영 46.6% 일라이트 41.6% 카올리나이트(kaolinite) 11.8%이며 $N_2$BET 방법에 의하여 구한 비표면적은 $6.52 m^2$g이다. 전위차 적정 실험결과를 그란(Gran)법을 적용하여 구한 일라이트광석의 영전하점($pH_{pznpc}$ )은 pH 3.9 총표면 자리 밀도는 21.24 sites/$nm^2$이다. 표면 복합체 모델중 일정 용량 모델을 적용해 일라이트 광석의 표변 특성에 알맞는 모델을 찾아보았다. 일라이트 광석의 표면을 사면체 자리와 팔면체 자리로 나누어 설정한 2sites$-3pK_{ a}$s 모델은 변수값이 수렴되지않았으므로 부적절하다고 판단된다. 일라이트 광석의 표면을 하나의 균질한 흡착표면으로 가정해서 설정한 1 site -1 $K_{a}$ 와 1 site -2 $pK_{a}$ s 모델 사이에는 뚜렷한 차이는 없지만, 1 site -1 $pK_{a}$ 모델의 WSOS/DF 값이 17, 1 site - 2 $pK_a{s}$ 모델은 26으로서 앞 모델이 보다 적절하다. 이 결과는 일라이트 광석 표면에서 수소의 해리와 첨가 반응 중 첨가 반응을 무시하여도 표면반응을 설명하는 데 큰 무리가 없음을 시사한다. 가장 적절하다고 판단되는 1 site -1 $pK_{a}$ 모델의 $pK_{a}$ 값은 4.17, specific capacitance는 $6F/m^2$ 표면 자리 농도는 $1.15\Times10^{-3}$ mol/L 이다.

The title complex, $[Cd(N_3)_2(2-ethylimidazole)_2]$, I, has been prepared and characterized by X-ray single crystallography. The complex I crystallizes in the monoclinic system, Cc space group with a = 16.200(3), b = 12.926(3), $c=7.007(1){\AA}$, ${\beta}=102.29(3)^{\circ}$, $V=1433.7(5){\AA}^3$, Z = 4, $R_1=0.0239$ and ${\omega}R_2=0.0604$ for 1874 independent reflections. Cd(II) atom has a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry, with four end-on (${\mu}-1$,1) bridging azido ligands and two 2-ethylimidazole ligands bonding through nitrogen atom. The central cadmium(II) atoms are run in parallel to the c-axis and are doubly bridged with neighboring cadmium(II) atoms by the end-on (${\mu}-1$,1) bridging azido ligands. Thus, this complex has a one-dimensional zigzag chain structure in which the 2-ethylimidazole is in the cis conformation.

The quaternary thiophosphates, $A_2NiP_2S_6$ (A=Rb, Cs), have been synthesized with halide fluxes and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique. These compounds crystallize in the space group $C_{2h}^5-P2_1/n$ of the monoclinic system with two formula units in a cell of dimensions a=5.960(2), b=12.323(4), $c=7.491(3)\AA$, $\beta=97.05(3)^{\circ}$, and $V=546.0(3)\AA^3$ for Rb2NiP2S6 and a=5.957(4), b=12.696(7), $c=7.679(4)\AA$, $b=93.60(5)^{\circ}$, and $V=579.7(5)\AA^3$ for $Cs_2NiP_2S_6.$ These compounds are isostructural. The structure of $Cs_2NiP_2S_6$ is made up of one-dimensional $_\infty^1[NiP_2S_6^{2-}]$ chains along the a axis and these chains are isolated by $Cs^+$ ions. The Ni atom is octahedrally coordinated by six S atoms. These Ni$S_6$ octahedral units are linked by sharing three m-S atoms of the $[P_2S_6^{4-}]$ anions to form the infinite one-dimensional $_\infty^1[NiP_2S_6^{2-}]$ chain. For $Cs_2NiP_2S_6$, the magnetic susceptibility reveals an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction below 8K,which corresponds to the Neel temperature ($T_N$). Above $T_N$, this compound obeys Curie-Weiss law. The magnetic moment, C, and ${\theta}forCs_2NiP_2S_6$ are 2.77 B.M., 0.9593 K, and -19.02 K, respectively. The effective magnetic moment obtained from the magnetic data is agreed with the spin-only value of $Ni^{2+}d^8$(2.83 B.M.) system.

Bentonite layers are intercalated within the basal conglomerates in the Tertiary sedimentary basins of Kampo, Janggi and Pohang, southeastern Korea. Eighteen samples of the bentonites went through X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, heavy mineral analyses, chemical analyses and oxygen, hydrogen stable isotope analyses to define the mineralogical characters of the bentonites. Heavy minerals such as zircons, apatites, amphiboles and biotites separated from bentonites show clean and euhedral surfaces, which are the characteristic features of volcanic origin. But biotites from the Chunbook Conglomerate are found as altered and heavily broken flakes which implies longer transportation of these bentonites. $TiO_{2}/Al_{2}O_{3} ratios of <2 $\mu$m particle fractions (the Chunbook Conglomerate 0.031; Janggi 0.029; Kampo 0.025) suggest that those are originated from volcanic tuffs. That is, the higher the value is, the more mafic in chemical compositions of the original tuffs. Authigenic montmorillonite and zeolite minerals were observed by SEM, which indicates diagenesis origin of bentonites. But the samples from the Chunbook Conglomerate showed only chaotically packed clay flakes in the matrix of sands or conglomerates, which implies detrital influence, not authigenic origin. The structural formulae of montmorillonite from these basins reflects their environment of formation. Fe (Ⅵ) can show the redox condition of its past environment and much lower $Fe^{2+}(Ⅵ)/Fe^{3+}(Ⅵ)$ ratios in montmorillonite of the Chunbook Conglomerate imply the greater oxidizing influence. Calculated burial depths from oxygen stable isotope data of the samples from the Chunbook Conglomerate generally fall to the range of 929~963 m whereas the real burial depth of this area is only 530~580 m. This could be explained as the bentonites of the Chunbook conglomerate had not been formed in situ. Discriminant analyses with the data from chemical analyses and structural formulae of montmorillonites show that bentonites from three different basins could definitely be distinguished with each other. This result arises from the different chemical compositions of original volcanic ashes and the difference of sedimentary environments.

The polymeric compound [{Mo(NO)_2Cl_2}n] was prepared by reductive nitrosylation of NaNO_2 and acidified FeSO_4 with MoCl_5. The reactions of [{Mo(NO)_2Cl_2}n] with unidentate and bidentate ligands afforded neutral monomeric $[Mo(NO)_2Cl_2L_2(or L-L)] in high yield (80∼90%). 3,5-Lutidine, {\gamma}-Cyanopyridine, 1,2-Phenylenediamine, 1,10-Phenanthroline, sym-Diphenylethylenediamine, 9,10-Phenanthrenequinone, 1,3-Bis(diphenylphosphino)propane and 8-Hydroxyquinoline were used as coordinating ligands. The preparation and characterization of these dinitrosylmolybdenum complexes by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, infrared, and UV-Visible spectroscopy are reported. The infrared spectra indicate that in all of the compounds prepared, the NO groups occupy cis-positions in the octahedral group of ligands.

Magnetic properties and crystallographic properties of $Cu_{0.95}Ge_{0.95}Fe_{0.1}O_3$ were studied by using x-ray diffraction, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. Our sample has orthorhombic structure and the lattice constants are a = 4.795 $\AA$, b = 8.472 $\AA$, c = 2.932 $\AA$. The spin-Peierls (SP) transition temperatures of our sample is 13 K. The Mossbauer spectra consisted with two Zeeman sextets and one doublet due to $Fe^{3+}$ions. The Zeeman sextets come from tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ions and the doublets come from octahedral $Fe^{3+}$ions. The jump up of magnetic hyperfine field of 2nd Zeeman sextet and the increasing of the values of quadrupole splitting and isomer shift of doublet below SP transition temperature could be interpreted related with the atomic displacements. The N el temperature is 715 K, the Debye temperature are 540 K for octahedral site and 380 K for tetrahedral site, respectively.

Microstructural investigations of $(Na_{1/2}Pr_{1/2})TiO_3$ (NPT) complex perovskite compounds were carried out using X-ray diffractometry and transmission electron microscopy. NPT had not 1:1 chemical ordering of Asite cations but had the antiphase and inphase tilting of oxygen octahedron and the antiparallel shift of cations. Both the antiphase boundaries and the ferroelastic domains were not present in the microstructure. Unidentified second phase was found in the microstructure. The measured dielectric properties were ${\varepsilon}_r=99.6,\;Q\;{\Large f}_o=1124\;GHz,\;{\tau}_{f}=-233.64ppm/^{\circ}C$.

The crystallographic and magnetic properties of the ferrimagnetic $Ni_{0.5}Co_{0.5}Fe_{2}O_{4}$ have been studied by X-ray and $M\"{o}ssbauer$ measurements. The Crystal structure is found to be spinel structure with the lattice constant $a_{0}=8.346{\pm}0.005\;{\AA}$. $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectra of $Ni_{0.5}Co_{0.5}Fe_{2}O_{4}$ have been taken at various temperatures rallging from 13 to 780 K. The isomer shifts indicate that the valence states of the Fe ions for tetrahedral(A) and octahedral(B) sites have ferric character. Debye temperatures for the A and B sites are found to be $441{\pm}5\;K$ and $321{\pm}5\;K$, respectively. Atomic migration from the A to the B sites starts near 500 K and increases rapidly with increasing temperature to such a degree that 51 % of the ferric ions at the A sites have moved over to the B sites by 700 K.

Spinel $LiNi_xMn_{2-x}O_4$ thin films were synthesized up to x = 0.9 by a sol-gel method employing spin-coating. The Ni-substituted films were found to maintain cubic structure at low x but to exhibit tetragonal structure for $x{\geq}0.6$. Such cubic-tetragonal phase transition indicates that $Ni^{3+}(d7)$ ions with low-spin $(t_{2g}^6,e_g^1)$ state occupy the octahedral sites of the compound, thus being subject to the Jahn-Teller distortion. By x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy both $Ni^{2+}$ and $Ni^{3+}$ ions were detected. Optical properties of the $LiNi_xMn_{2-x}O_4$ films were investigated by spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) in the visible?ultraviolet range. The measured dielectric function spectra by SE mainly consist of broad absorption structures attributed to charge-transfer (CT) transitions, $O^{2-}(2p){\rightarrow}Mn^{4+}(3d)$ for 1.9 $(t_{2g})$ and $2.8{\sim}3.0$ eV $(e_g)$ structures and $O^{2-}(2p){\rightarrow}Mn^{3+}(3d)$ for 2.3 $(t_{2g})$ and $3.4{\sim}3.6$ eV $(e_g)$ structures. Also, sharp absorption structures were observed at about 1.6, 1.7, and 1.9 eV, interpreted as due to d-d crystal-field transitions within the octahedral $Mn^{3+}$ ion. The strengths of these absorption structures are reduced by the Ni substitution. Rapid reduction of the CT transition strength involving the eg states for x = 0.6 is attributed to the reduced wavefunction overlap between the $e_g$ and the $O^{2-}(2p)$ states due to the tetragonal extension of the lattice constant by the Jahn-Teller effect.
