A relationship $(T_c = -17.869C^2+1840.2C-46623)$ between Curie Temperature$(T_c)$ and (C), $Li_2O$ mole percent(%) was established from the measurement results of Curie temperature $(T_c)$) analysed by DTA(Differential Thermal Analysis) in the range from 48.50 to 49.00 $Li_2O$ mole %. Congruent melt composition of $LiTaO_3$ single crystal was to be 48.65 $Li_2O$ mole % and its Curie temperature was also determined to be $610{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ from the results of Curie temperature difference, ${\Delta}T (T_{c(Top)}-T{_c(Tail)})$ of Czochralski grown $LiTaO_3$ crystals and the distribution coefficient(k). The k was calculated from $LiO_2$ mole ratio of initial melt to final melt and initial crystal to final crystal in the range from 48.60 to 48.70 $Li_2O$ mole %.

The congruent composition of $LiNbO_3$ was determined by measuring Curie temperature($T_c$) of crystals and residual melt grown from the range 48.45 to 48.60mole%$Li_2O$ melts. The $T_c$ of $LiNbO_3$ varied with compositon largely. The variation of $T_c$ with composition was found to follow $T_c=l0.4184c^2-962. 996C + 23342$, where C is mole % LizO. DSC-1500 was used to measure $T_c$. Distribution coefficients for $LiNbO_3$$ LiNbO_3$ contains 48.52mole$Li_2O$ and has a measured Tc of $1145{\pm}^{\circ}C$

Electron magnetic resonance (EMR) of paramagnetic Cr$^{3+}$, Mn$^{2+}$, and Fe$^{3+}$ impurity ions in ferroelectric LiNbO$_3$ and LiTaO$_3$ single crystals has been studied. The actual sites location of paramagnetic impurity ions in the crystals was suggested from the experimental results and zero field splitting parameters calculated by superposition model. It turns out that Cr$^{3+}$ ions in LiNbO$_3$ crystal have two resonance centers and enter both the Li$^{+}$ and Nb$^{5+}$ ions. Mn$^{2+}$ and Fe$^{3+}$ impurity ions in LiNbO$_3$ substitute for Nb$^{5+}$ ions. However, both Cr$^{3+}$ and Fe$^{3+}$ ions in LiTaO$_3$ crystal reside at Li$^{+}$ ions.$ +/ ions.+/ ions.

$Li_{0.44}MnO_2$cathode material has high reversibility during lithium insertion processes and is not easily damaged through over-charging or over-discharging. $Mn_2O_3$is often present as an impurity phase, and reduce the electrochemical capacity of electrode because this phase is electrochemically inert. Adding of excess NaOH reduced the $Mn_2O_3$to the content under undetectable by X-ray diffraction. Because the capacity can be increased in the cathode materials with larger unit cell, some of the manganese was replaced with titanium having larger ion size, and powders with the formula $Li_{0.44}T_{iy}Mn_{1-y}O_2$(where y = 0.11, 0.22, 0.33, 0.44, and 0.55) was synthesized and characterized. A maximum reversible capacity of 150 mAh/g was obtained for $Li/P(EO)_8$LiTFSI/$Li_{0.44}Ti_{0.22}Mn_{0.78}O_2$cells in electrochemical potential spectroscopy (ECPS) experiments. Cells with the titanium-doped manganese oxides exhibited a fade rate of 0.12 % or less per cycle.

The proton NMR line widths and spin-lattice relaxation rates, $T_1^{-1}$, of ferroelectric $LiH_3(SeO_3)_2$, $Li_2SO_4{\cdot}H_2O$, and $LiN_2H_5SO_4$ single crystals were measured as a function of temperature. The line width measurements reveal rigid lattice behavior of all the crystals at low temperatures and line narrowing due to molecular motion at higher temperatures. The temperature dependences of the proton $T_1^{-1}$ for these crystals exhibit maxima, which are attributed to the effects of molecular motion by the Bloembergen - Purcell - Pound theory. The activation energies for the molecular motions of $^1H$ in these crystals were obtained. From these analysis, $^1H$ in $LiH_3(SeO_3)_2$ undergoes molecular motion more easily than $^1H$ in $LiN_2H_5SO_4$ and $Li_2SO_4{\cdot}H_2O$ crystals.

It is demonstrated that the annealing process for Ti in-diffusion to z-cut $LiNbO_3$ at temperature lower than the curie temperature in a platinum (Pt) box can cause a ferroelectric micro-domain inversion at the +z surface and Li out-diffusion, therefore which should be avoided or suppressed for waveguide type periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) devices. The depth of the inversion layer depends on the Ti-diffusion conditions such as temperature, atmosphere, the sealing method of $LiNbO_3$ in the Pt box and crystal orientation is experimentally examined. The result shows that the polarization-inverted domain boundary appears at the only +z surface and its thickness is about $1.6{\mu}m$. Also, for the etched $LiNbO_3$, surface the domain shape was observed by the optical microscope and atomic force microscopy (AEM), and distribution of the cation concentrations in the $LiNbO_3$ crystal by the secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS).

ZnO:Li epilayers were synthesized on sapphire substrates by the pulesd laser deposition (PLD) after the surface of the ZnO:Li sintered pellet was irradiated by the ArF (193 nm) excimer laser. The growth temperature was fixed at $400^{\circ}C$. The crystalline structure of epilayers was investigated by the photoluminescence (PL) and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of epilayers measured by van der Pauw-Hall method are $2.69\times10cm^{-3}$ and $52.137cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of epilayers obtained from the absorption spectra is well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)=3.5128eV{\cdot}(9.51\times10^{-4}eV/K)T^2/(T+280K)$. After the as-grown ZnO:Li epilayer was annealed in Zn atmospheres, oxygen and vaccum the origin of point defects of ZnO:Li has been investigated by PL at 10 K. The Peaks of native defects of $V_{zn},\;V_o,\;Zn_{int},\;and\;O_{int}$ showned on PL spectrum are classified as a donors or accepters type. We confirm that $ZnO:Li/Al_2O_3$ in vacuum do not form the native defects because ZnO:Li epilayers in vacuum existe in the form of stable bonds.

Single crystals of lithium heptaborate, Li3B7O12(M=288.49), have been grown and their structure was determined by the x-ray powder diffraction and the single crystal diffraction technique. It is found that the borate anion consists of two(B3O7)3- and (B3O8)5- groups a unit cell. The space group was determined to be P-1(Ci1) with a=6.500(3) Å, b=7.839(2) Å, c=8.512(1) Å, α=92.07(2)˚, β=104.97(2)˚, γ=99.35(3)˚, V=412.0(2) Å3, Z=2 Dx=2.32 g cm-3, MoKα, λ=0.71069 Å, μ=2.15cm-1, T=293K. The structure was refined to R=0.0339 and wR=0.0882 for 2296 unique reflections by the single crystal diffraction. By the x-ray powder diffraction, we could obtain the similar results.

Nucleation and crystallization of $\beta$-eucryptite in a glass of molecular percentage composition Li2O.Al2O3.2SiO2 are studied. The glasses are made by quenching of the melts from 143$0^{\circ}C$ to room temperature. Heat-treatment for nucleation and crystal growth are caried out at various temperature in the range between 50$0^{\circ}C$ and 80$0^{\circ}C$ with different duration of time. The amounts of crystallization are estimated by the method of x-ray powder diffraction. As the results a time-temperature-transformation relation for crystallization is derived. The maximum rate of crystallization is observed at about 75$0^{\circ}C$ from the T-T-T-curve while the crystallization temperature is detected at 67$0^{\circ}C$ by DTA measurement. The crystallization temperature moved to 62$0^{\circ}C$ by adding 5 weight percents of TiO2 and it moved to 78$0^{\circ}C$ by adding 2 weight percents of V2O5. The crystallization temperature moved to 62$0^{\circ}C$ by adding 5 weight percent of TiO2 it moved to 78$0^{\circ}C$ by adding 2 weight percents of V2O5 The activation energy for crystallization from the pure glass is calculated as 68 Kcal/mol and it varied to 53 Kcal/mol and 110Kcal/mol when 5 weight percents of TiO2 and weight percents of V2O5 are added respectively.
