The surge current characteristics of ZnO-$Pr_6O_{11}$-CoO-$Cr_2O_3-Dy_2O_3$-based varistors were investigated with various $Dy_2O_3$ contents. The sintered density decreased in the range of $5.2{\sim}4.6g/cm^3$ with increasing $Dy_2O_3$ content. The incorporation of $Dy_2O_3$ markedly enhanced the nonlinear properties of varistors above 10 times in nonlinear exponent, compared with the varistor without $Dy_2O_3$. The varistor ceramics doped with 0.5 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ exhibited the highest electrical stability. However, the remainder varistors resulted in thermal runaway due to low density of varistor ceramics. The clamping voltage ratio exhibited a minimum value of 2.03 in 1.0 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ at surge current of 100 A(8/20 ${\mu}s$).

The electrical properties of the praseodymium-based ZnO varistor ceramics, which are composed of Zn-Pr-Co-Cr-Dy oxides were investigated with $Dy_2O_3$ amount. The average grain size of varistor ceramics was greatly decreased from 18.2 to 4.6 pm with increasing $Dy_2O_3$ amount. The calculated nonlinear exponent$({\alpha})$ in varistor ceramics without $DY_2O_3$ was only 4.9, whereas the a value of the varistors with $DY_2O_3$ was abruptly increased in the range of 48.8 to 58.6. In particular, the maximum value of a was obtained by doping of 1.0 mol% $DY_2O_3$, reaching 58.6. The measured leakage current$(I_l)$ value in varistors without $DY_2O_3$ was $85.45{\mu}A$, whereas the $I_{\ell}$ value of the varistors with $DY_2O_3$ was very abruptly decreased in the range of 1.10 to $0.12{\mu}A$. In particular, the minimum value of $I_{\ell}$ was obtained by doping of 0.5 mol% $DY_2O_3$, reaching $0.12{\mu}A$. The tan $\delta$ varied in V-shape, with minimum 2.28% at 0.5 mol% $DY_2O_3$. The donor concentration and the density of interface states were decreased in the range of $(4.66{\sim}0.25){\times}10^{18}cm^3$ and $(5.70{\sim}1.39){\times}10^{12}/cm^2$, respectively, as $DY_2O_3$ amount is increased.

The coercivity $H_c$ of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ magnets and $Nd_2Fe_{14}B/(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ composite magnets were calculated by computer simulation based on the micromagnetic theory under assumptions that $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ and $(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ grains have magnetically deteriorated layers on their surfaces and diffusion of Dy from $(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ grains to $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ ones through the contacting boundaries recovers the magnetic anisotropy of the deteriorated layers of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ grains. $H_c$ of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B/(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ composite magnets increased by the diffusion of Dy from $(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ grains to $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ ones and the resultant recovery of the anisotropy field of deteriorated layers of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ grains. The $H_c$ vs fraction of $(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ grains curve were convex for the magnets with the degree of alignment between 0.94 and 0.99, which suggests that the above composite magnets have larger $H_c$ values than the alloy-magnets with the same Dy content, and that we can save the consumption of Dy by using these composite magnets.

Magneto-optical (MO) materials have attracted much attention, since they can be utilized for various optical applications, such as magnetic field sensors, optical current sensors, optical isolators, and optical circulators. In this study, alumino-borosilicate (ABS) glasses with high concentrations of Dy³⁺ ions were fabricated by a conventional melt-quenching technique, and the dependence of their thermal, optical, and magneto-optical properties on Dy³⁺ ion concentration was investigated. The MO property of the glasses was investigated by measurement of Faraday rotation at 1550 nm. The Faraday rotation angle increased linearly with the increase of Dy³⁺ ion concentration in the glasses. A very high Verdet constant of -6.86 rad/(T·m) was obtained for glass with a Dy³⁺ ion concentration of 30 mol%. In addition, the ABS-Dy glasses showed good thermal stability of greater than 128 ℃ against crystallization, and high optical transmission of 70% in the visible to near-infrared windows of 480-720, 1390-1560, and 1800-2400 nm. Due to the high Verdet constant and good thermal stability, the ABS-Dy glasses in this study could be candidate optical materials for MO device applications at 1550 nm.

최근에 디스프로슘 이온이 도핑된 형광체의 백색 발광 현상 때문에 백색 발광 소재의 제조에 관한 연구가 상당한 관심을 끌고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $Eu^{3+}$와 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비를 변화시키면서 $BaNb_2O_6:RE^{3+}$ (RE=Eu, Dy) 형광체 분말을 합성한 결과를 보고한다. 특히 활성제 이온인 $Eu^{3+}$와 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비에 따른 $BaNb_2O_6$ 형광체 분말의 결정 구조, 입자의 모양과 크기, 흡광과 발광 스펙트럼의 변화를 관측하였고, 최적의 합성 조건을 제시하고자 한다. 파장 393 nm로 여기 시킨 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비에 따른 $BaNb_2O_6$ 형광체 분말의 발광 스펙트럼은 580 nm에 주 피크를 갖는 황색 스펙트럼이 관측되었다. 이 발광 신호는 $^4F_{9/2}-^6H_{13/2}$ 전이 신호이다. $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 0 mol인 경우에는 발광 신호가 검출되지 않았다. $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 0.10 mol일 때 발광 피크의 세기는 최대이었으며, $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 더욱 증가함에 따라 발광 스펙트럼의 세기는 계속 증가하지 않고 갑자기 감소하기 시작하였다. 이것은 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 임계값을 초과하여 더욱 증가하면 모체 격자들 사이에 치환 고용되어 있는 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온들 사이의 거리가 더욱 가까워져서 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온들이 서로 용이하게 결합함으로써 내부 산란에 의하여 발광의 세기가 감소함을 의미한다. 흡광 스펙트럼의 경우에, $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 0.01 mol일때 형광체 분말은 두 종류의 흡광 스펙트럼을 나타내었다. 첫째는 $Dy^{3+}$ 양이온과 $O^{2-}$ 음이온들 사이에 발생한 전하 전달 밴드에 의해 발생하는 310 nm를 정점으로 하여 280~340 nm 영역에 걸쳐서 광범위하게 분포하는 흡광 신호가 관측되었으며, 둘째는 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 $4f^9$ 전자 배열 내에서 발생하는 4f-4f 전이 신호로서, 이것은 350~500 nm 영역에 걸쳐서 비교적 밴드폭이 좁은 다수의 흡광 신호가 나타났다. 본 실험에서는 다섯 개의 피크를 갖는 흡광 신호가 검출되었는데, 이중에서 제일 강한 주 피크인 393 nm의 흡수 파장은 모체 격자 내에 있는 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 바닥 상태인 $^6H_{15/2}$ 준위에서 여기 상태인 $^4F_{7/2}$ 인 에너지 준위로 전이하면서 발생한 신호이며, 이에 비하여 상대적으로 흡광 세기가 약한 370, 432, 458, 370 nm의 흡수 파장이 관측되었다.

ZnS:Mn, Dy yellow phosphors for White Light Emitting Diode were synthesized by a solid state reaction method using ZnS, $MnSO_4{\cdot}5H_2O$, S and $DyCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$ powders as starting materials. The mixed powder was sintered at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 4 h in an air atmosphere. The photoluminescence of the ZnS:Mn, Dy phosphors showed spectra extending from 480 to 700 nm, peaking at 580 nm. The photoluminescence of 580 nm in the ZnS:Mn, Dy phosphors was associated with $^4T_1{\rightarrow}^6A_1$ transition of $Mn^{2+}$ ions. The highest photoluminescence intensity of the ZnS:Mn, Dy phosphors under 450 nm excitation was observed at 4 mol% Dy doping. The enhanced photoluminescence intensity of the ZnS:Mn, Dy phosphors was explained by energy transfer from $Dy^{3+}$ to $Mn^{2+}$. The CIE coordinate of the 4 mol% Dy doped ZnS:Mn, Dy was X = 0.5221, Y = 0.4763. The optimum mixing conditions for White Light Emitting Diode was obtained at the ratio of epoxy : yellow phosphor = 1:2 form CIE coordinate.

$Dy^{3+}$-doped $BaMoO_4$ phosphor powders were synthesized by using the solid-state reaction method and their crystalline structure, morphology and size of particles, excitation and emission properties were investigated. The structure of all the phosphor powders, irrespective of the mol ratio of $Dy^{3+}$ ions, was found to be the tetragonal system with the main diffraction peak at (112) plane. The grain particles agglomerate together to form larger clusters with increasing the mol ratio of $Dy^{3+}$ ions. The excitation spectra were composed of a broad band centered at 293 nm and weak multiline peaked in the range of 230~320 nm, which were due to the transitions of $Dy^{3+}$ ions. The emission of the phosphors peaking at 666 and 754 nm, originating from the transitions of $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{11/2}$ and $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{9/2}$ of $Dy^{3+}$ ions, was rather weak, while the intensity of blue and yellow emission peaking at 486 nm and 577 nm due to the transitions of $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{15/2}$ and $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{13/2}$ of $Dy^{3+}$ ions was significantly stronger. The experimental results suggest that the white-light emission can be realized by controlling the yellow-to-blue intensity ratio of $Dy^{3+}$ emission.

The microstructure and electrical properties of varistor ceramics, which are composed of Zn-Pr­Co-Cr-Dy-oxide system, were investigated at various dysprosia $(Dy_2O_3)$ addition contents. The $DY_2O_3$ microstructurally played the role of inhibition for the densification and grain growth. As the $DY_2O_3$ content increased, the density decreased in the range of $5.51-4.90 g/cm^3$, reaching maximum at $0.5 mol\%$ and the average ZnO grain size decreased in the range of $17.7-6.0{\mu}m$. The incorporation of $DY_2O_3$ significantly improved the nonlinear properties of varistors, above 30 in nonlinear exponent, compared with that without $DY_2O_3$. The varistors with the best performance of nonlinear properties was obtained $DY_2O_3$ content of $1.0 mol\%$, 49 in nonlinear exponent and $0.5{\mu}A$ in leakage current.

Dy³⁺- and Eu³⁺-codoped BaWO₄ phosphors for white light-emitting diode were synthesized with different activator ions via a solid-state reaction process. The structural, morphological, and optical properties of the BaWO₄:Dy³⁺,Eu³⁺ phosphors were investigated as a function of Eu³⁺ concentration at a fixed concentration of Dy³⁺ ions. XRD patterns exhibited that all the synthesized phosphors had a tetragonal system, irrespective of the concentrations of Dy³⁺ and Eu³⁺ ions. The excitation spectra of the synthesized phosphors were composed of three intense bands centered at 251, 355, and 393 nm and several weak peaks. For the BaWO₄:Dy³⁺,Eu³⁺ phosphors synthesized with 1 mol% of Eu³⁺, the emission spectra under ultraviolet excitation at 393 nm showed two strong blue and yellow bands at 485 and 577 nm corresponding to the ⁴F_9/2⁶H_15/2 and ⁴F_9/2⁶H_13/2 transitions of Dy³⁺ ions, respectively and several weak bands in the range of 600-700 nm resulting from the 4f transitions of Eu³⁺ ions. As the concentration of Eu³⁺ ions increased, intensities of the blue and yellow emission bands gradually decreased while those of the red emissions increased rapidly and the energy transfer efficiency from Dy³⁺ to Eu³⁺ ions was 95.3% at 20 mol% of Eu³⁺. The optimum white light emission with x=0.363, y=0.357 CIE 1931 chromaticity coordinates was obtained for the sample doped with 5 mol% Dy³⁺ and 1 mol% of Eu³⁺.
