In this paper, the EM wave absorber was designed and fabricated for countermeasure against EMI from a ceiling of a tollgate in ETC system. We fabricated several samples in different composition ratios of MnZn-ferrite, Carbon, and CPE(Chlorinated Polyethylene). Absorption abilities were simulated in accordance with different thicknesses of the prepared absorbers and changed complex relative permittivity and permeability according to composition ratio. The optimized mixing ratio of MnZn-ferrite, Carbon, and CPE was found as 40:15:45 wt.% by experiments and simulation. Then the EM wave absorber was fabricated and tested using the simulated data. As a result, the developed EM wave absorber has the thickness of 3.3 mm and absorption ability was more than 20 dB in the case of normal incidence and more than 11 dB for the incident angle from 15 to 45 degrees at 5.8 GHz. Therefore, it was confirmed that the newly developed absorber can be used for ETC system.

Oxides of the form $Mn_{3}O_4$-$Co_{3}O_4$-NiO present properties that make them useful as multilayer chip NTC thermistor for mobile communication telephone. When $Mn_{2}Ni_{x}CO_{1-x}O_4$ composition with the X = 0.12$\sim$0.24 at sintered temperature 1250$^{\circ}C$, resistivity and B-constant were 300$\sim$450[${\Omega}-cm$] and 3250$\sim$3450, respectively. Multilayer chip NTC(Negative Temperature Coefficient) resistor were fabricated with 4 layer by a conventional multilayer capacitor techniques, using 100 pd paste as internal electrode and $Mn_{2}Ni_{0.20}CO_{0.8}O_4$ composition as NTC materials. In particular, resistance change ratio (${\Delta}R$), the important factor for reliability, varied within $\pm$3%, indicating the compositions of multilayer chip NTC thermistor products could be available for mobile communication telephone.

The characteristics of selective oxidation prior to hot-dip galvanizing with the annealing atmosphere dew point and chemical composition in dual-phase steels and their effect on the inhibition layer formation relevant to coating adhesion have been studied using a combination of electron microscopic and surface analytical techniques. The annealed and also galvanized samples of 3 kinds of Si/Mn ratios with varied amounts of Si addition were prepared by galvanizing simulator. The dew point was controlled at soaking temperature $800^{\circ}C$ in 15%$H_2$ -85%$N_2$ atmosphere. It was shown that good adhesion factors were mainly uniformity of oxide particle distribution of low number density and low Si/Mn ratio prior to hot-dip galvanizing. Their effect was the greatly reduced coating bare spots and the formation of uniform inhibition layer leading to good adhesion of Zn overlay. The mechanism of good adhesion is suggested by two processes: the formation of inhibition layer on the oxide free surface uncovered with no $SiO_2$-containing particles in particular, and the inhibition layer bridging of oxide particles. The growth of inhibition layer was enhanced markedly by the delayed reaction of Fe and Al with the increase of Si/Mn ratio.

Variations of the twenty one metal components (Mg, Al, V, Cr, Co, Sr, Ba, Na, K Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, As, Hg, Pb, Ca, P, Mo, Cd, Sb) were analyzed in human hair sample by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The effect of bleach and permanent wave manipulation on the elemental composition of hair were investigated. It was found that the composition of hair varied with hair bleach and permanent wave. Hair sample was collected from male in the age of thirties. Hair sample (0.05 g) was added to the Teflon digestion bomb together with 1.5 mL of nitric acid and an appropriate amount of In as an internal standard. The sample was then decomposed in the microwave digestion system. In normal hair, the contents of V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Cu, Zn, As, Mo, Cd, Sb and P were increased in permanent wave hair, and Mg, Al, V, Co, Sr, Ba, Na and K were increased in bleached hair. But Mg, Al, Sr, Ba, Hg, Pb, Na, K, and Ca contents were decreased with permanent wave hair, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, As, Hg, Pb and Ca contents were decreased with bleached hair.

Lithium ferrites are a low-cost material which have been prominent in the high frequency core industry because of their excellent temperature performance and high squareness ratio. In order to develope the lithium ferrites with the high squareness and low coercive force, the ferrites of $Li_{0.48}Bi_{0.02}Ni_{0.04}Fe_{2.46-x}O_4$ were investigated the by varying composition, temperature and frequency. Electric loss of the Li-ferrite was lowered with the substitution of $Mn_{2}O_3$. The addition of $Mn_{2}O_3$ increased the magnetic induction (Bm&Br) but decreased the coercive force (Hc) and the squareness ratio (R=Br/Bm). Also, the Br value was stable at environmental temperature variation.

For the development of solid oxide fuel cell the joined interface formation between perovskite oxygen electrode and YSZ solid electrolyte is emphasized in the aspect of reducing the undisirable overpotential. The diffusion couple of LaMnO3 and YSZ was prepared by hot pressing at 130$0^{\circ}C$ in the flow of oxygen gas. The high temperature solid state reaction mechanism between LaMnO3 and YSZ is discussed on the basis of the cation composition profile through EDX analysis. The cation components in perovskite compound diffuse considerably into YSZ, while cations of YSZ diffuse little into perovskite.

The effect of Mn and Nb additions on the electrical properties of BaTiO$_3$ has been studied by means of equilibrium electrical conductivity as a function of temperature, oxygen partial pressure(Po$_2$) and composition. If the manganese ion is added to the normal Ti site, i.e. BaTi$_{1-x}Mn_xO_{\delta-6}$, the equilibrium conductivity shows strong evidence of acceptor-doped behavior. The conductivity minimum, corresponding to the transition from oxygen excess, p-type behavior to oxygen deficient, n-type behavior with decreasing Po$_2$, is displaced to lower Po$_2$ and is broadened and flattened. The partial replacement of Mn ion with Nb decreases the acceptor-doped effect and the total replacement exhibits a typical donor-doped behavior. It was confirmed that unlike undoped or other acceptor-doped behavior. It was confirmed that unlike undoped or other acceptor-doped samples, for the p-type region, the electrical conductivity follows the 1/6th power dependence of oxygen partial pressure.

Manganese-doped $Zn_2SiO_4$ phosphors well known as a green emitter with high luminescence efficiency were prepared by the homogeneous precipitation method, and their photoluminescence properties under vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) excitation were investigated. $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn phosphors obtained by this method have exhibited a high luminance of property and a spherical shape of particles. In particular, the green emission intensity of zinc orthosilicate prepared as containing around 2 mole% of manganese was much stronger than that of the commercial $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn phosphor, while the decay time was longer. However, addition of $Al^{3+}$ and $Li^+$ into $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn composition has significantly diminished the decay time of the phosphor without much degradation of the emission intensity.

We have measured the linewidth and g-factor of EPR signals of the single crystal Mn$_{x}$Si$_{1-x}$ as a function of Mn-composition (0.4$\leq$x$\leq$0.9). We have investigated the linewidth of Mn$_{0.49}$Si$_{0.51}$ as a function of temperature (100 $\leq$ T $\leq$ 300 K). From these results EPR linewidth equation could be fitted for experimental data of EPR linewidth. This type of equation is similar to the shape of EPR linewidth of DMS (dulite magnetic semiconductor).or).r).

This article reviews findings and progresses in the past decade on manganese-aluminium (MnAl) based magnets as the interest has been revived to fulfill their potential as commercial magnets. The challenges in developments of these rare-earth-free magnets are to acquire a high remanence and coercivity from the ferromagnetic τ-phase in MnAl alloys. To this end, the phase transformation to this τ-MnAl with L10 body centered tetragonal structure has been promoted by a variety of methods and a few percents of carbon (C) is often added to prevent the phase decomposition. Magnetization and coercivity are not only influenced by the phase composition but also the microstructure. The fabrication processes and factors affecting the phase and microstructure are therefore covered. Finally, the productions of bulk MnAl magnets are addressed.
