The effect of alloy compositions of the bond coating on the plasma sprayed-thermal barrier coatings was investigated. The performance of the coating composed of Rene80/NiCrAl/ZrO$_2$-CeO$_2$-Y$_2$O$_3$ and Rene80/CoNiCrAlY/ZrO$_2$-CeO$_2$-Y$_2$O$_3$was evaluated by isothermal and thermal cyclic test in an ambient atmosphere at 115$0^{\circ}C$. The failure of Rene80/NiCrAl/ZrO$_2$-CeO$_2$-Y$_2$O$_3$ coatings was occurred at the bond coating/ceramic coating interface while Rene80/CoNiCrAlY/ZrO$_2$-CeO$_2$-Y$_2$O$_3$ coating was failed at the substrate/bond coating interface after thermal cyclic test. The lifetime of Rene80/NiCrAl/ZrO$_2$-CeO$_2$-Y$_2$O$_3$coatings was longer than Rene80/CoNiCrAlY/ZrO$_2$-CeO$_2$-Y$_2$O$_3$coating. The oxidation rate of the NiCrAl bond coating examined by TGA was lower than CoNiCrAlY bond coatings. In summary, these results suggest that Rene80/CoNiCrAlY/ZrO$_2$-CeO$_2$-Y$_2$O$_3$system as thermal barrier coating be not suitable considering the durability of the coating layer for high temperature oxidation and thermal stress.

The effect of CeO$_2$ coating on the surface nucleation of the top-seeded melt-growth processed YBCO superconductors was studied. It was effective that the coating of Y123 compact surfaces by CeO$_2$ powder suppressed the undesirable subsidiary YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-y}$ (Y123) nucleation during melt processing. BaCeO$_3$ was formed in the CeO$_2$-coated layers, which might cause a CuO-excessive liquid at the partial melt stage of $Y_2$BaCuO$_{5}$(Y211) plus liquid, and thus the Y123 nucleation at the YBCO compact surfaces could be suppressed during the melt growth of Y123 grain. In addition, the CeO$_2$ refined the Y211 particles near the compact / coating interface. While the levitation forces of the top surfaces with and without CeO$_2$ coating were similar to each other, the levitation force of the interior of the CeO$_2$ coated sample was higher than that of the interior of the sample without CeO$_2$ coating, which was attributed to the suppression of subsidiary Y123 nucleation at the compact walls.s.s.

This paper presents a process optimization of antireflectiun (AR) coating on crystalline Si solar cells. Theoretical and experimental investigations were performed on a doble-layer AR(DLAR) coating of MgF$_2$/CeO$_2$, We investigated CeO$_2$ films as an All layer because they hale a proper refractive index of 2.46 and demonstrate the same lattice constant as Si substrate. RF sputter grown CeO$_2$ film showed strong dependence on a deposition temperature. The CeO$_2$ film deposited at 400 $^{\circ}C$ exhibited a strong (111) preferred orientation and the lowest surface roughness of 6.87 $\AA$. Refractive index of MgF$_2$ film was measured as 1.386 for the most of growth temperature. An optimized DLAR coating showed a reflectance as low as 2.04 % in the wavelengths ranged from 0.4 7m to 1.1 7m. We achieved the efficiencies of solar cells greater than 15% with 3.12 % improvement with DLAR coatings . Further details on MgF$_2$, CeO$_2$ films, and cell fabrication Parameters are presented in this paper.

$Y_2SiO_5$:Ce was considered as blue phosphor for field emission display because it had an excellent resistance against brightness saturation. But unfortunately It hadn't a sufficient brightness to be applied to FED. In this experiment It-$In_2O_3$, MgO and $SiO_2$ were coated onto $Y_2SiO_5$:Ce phosphor in order to improve the cathodoluminance(CL properties. The coating structures were identified to be the crystalline phases of $In_2O_3$ and MgO respectively. They had fine particle-like shape and were distributed on the surface of $Y_2SiO_5$:Ce phosphor. It was found that the CL efficiency of $Y_2SiO_5$:Ce phosphors were decreased after coatings with In20:j and MgO in voltage range from 500 V to 5 kV. But the brightness of $Y_2SiO_5$:Ce phosphor was increased after coating of 5 0 2 . And also the aging test showed that $In_2O_3$ coating improved the life time of $Y_2SiO_5$:Ce phosphor.

$Y_2SiO_5:Ce$ 형광체를 $In_2O_3$, $Al_2O_3$ 및 $SiO_2$로 코팅한 후 전계 방출 디스플레이에 요구되는 음극선 발광 특성을 조사하였다. $Al_2O_3$ 코팅으로 $Y_2$SiO(sub)5:Ce 형광체의 발광 효율과 에이징 특성은 감소되었다. 한편 $Al_2$$O_3$코팅으로 형광체의 발광효율은 증가하였으나 발광스펙트럼과 색좌표는 일부 변화하였다. 그러나 $Y_2SiO_5:Ce$ 청색 형과체의 발광 효율은 $SiO_2$코팅으로 크게 증가하였으며, 또한 $SiO_2$ 코팅한 $Y_2SiO_5:Ce$ 형광체의 에이징 특성은 코팅 전에 비하여 크게 향상되었다.

As structural materials, magnesium (Mg) alloys have been widely used in the fields of aviation, automobiles, optical instruments, and electronic products. There are few studies on the effect of coating conditions on the compositional variation during the formation process of the conversion coatings. Rare-earth based conversion coating on AZ91 magnesium alloy was prepared in ceric sulfate and hydrogen peroxide contained solution. The element composition and valence as well as their distribution in the coating were analyzed with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Electron probe micro-analyzer (EPMA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The effect of treating process on the element composition were also studied. It was found that the conversion coating surface consists of Mg, Al, O, Ce, and the weight content of Ce in the coating was affected by the treating solution concentration and immersion time; the Ce element was distributed in the coating non-uniformly and existed in the form of $Ce^{+3}$ and $Ce^{+4}$, while the O element existed in the form of $OH^-$, $O^{2-}$, $H_2O$. Based on microscopic analysis results, the electrochemical deposition mechanism on the micro-anode and micro-cathode in the process of the coating growth was suggested.

Ceramic membranes of the supported $TiO_2-CeO_2$ were prepared by dip-coating method on an $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ porous substrate. The mean pore diameter of an alumina support was 0.125 um. The mean particle diameter of $TiO_2-CeO_2$ top layer varied with firing temperature and ranged from 20 to 85 nm. The thermal stability of the composite membranes was studied from their surface microstructure after calcination at $600-900^{\circ}C$. The supported $TiO_2-CeO_2$ composite membranes exhibited much higher heat resistance than the $TiO_2$ membrane.

This paper describes an efficiency improvement of buried contact solar cell (BSCS) with a structure of MgF$_2$/CeO$_2$/Ag/Cu/Ni grid/n$^{+}$ emitter/p-type Si base/p$^{+}$/Al. Theoretical and experimental investigations were performed on a double layer antireflection (DLAR) coating of MgF$_2$/CeO$_2$. We investigated CeO$_2$ films as an AR layer because they have a proper refractive index of 2.46 and demonstrate the same lattice constant as Si substrate. An optimized DLAR coating shewed a reflectance as low as 2.04 % in the wavelengths ranged from 0.4 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 1.1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. BCSC cell efficiency was improved from 16.2 % without any AR coating to 19.9 % by employing DLAR coatings. Further details on MgF$_2$/CeO$_2$ DLAR coatings on the BCSC cells are presented in this paper.per.

Ceria(CeO2) stabilized zirconia(CeSZ) sol was synthesized with zirconium n-butoxide Zr(OC4H9)4 and cerium nitrate hexahydrate Ce(NO3)3.6H2O as precursors and ethylacetoacetate(EAcAc) as a chelating agent under atmosphere. CeSZ films were deposited on AISI 304 stainless steel using the prepared polymeric sol by dipcoating and the coating characteristics were investigated by XRD, ellipsometry, scratch test and SEM. The CeSZ film began to crystallize from amorphous to tetragonal phase at 40$0^{\circ}C$ and it was not converted into monoclinic phase up to 100$0^{\circ}C$ by the addition of 16mol% CeO2 as a stabilizer which could suppress phase transformation of zirconia. The CeSZ films were prepared by varying the EAcAc contents and the cncentration of CeSZ sol and measured the thickness and refractive index. From these results, it was found that the EAcAc contents and concentration of CeSZ coating sol evidently affect the densification of CeSZ film. The CeSZ film coated with 0.4M CeSZ sol and heat-treated at $600^{\circ}C$ for 10min had thickness of 50nm and 17% porosity. The CeSZ film on 304 stainless steel effectively acted as a protective layer against oxidation up to 80$0^{\circ}C$ and had superior corrosion resistance in 25% H2SO4 solution for 4.5 hrs.
