A new $Mg_{2-x}MN_xSnO_4$ phosphor with an inverse spinel structure was synthesized by the solid-state reaction technique. The photoluminescence properties of the $Mg_2SnO_4$:Mn phosphors were investigated under 147nm -vacuum ultraviolet ray excitation. The Mn-doped $Mg_2SnO_4$ phosphor exhibited high emission intensity with the spectrum centered at 500nm wavelength. It was explained that the green emission in $Mg_2SnO_4$:Mn phosphor has originated from energy transfer from $^4T_1$ to $^6A_1$ of $Mn^{2+}$ ion at tetrahedral site of the spinel structure. The $Mn^{2+}$ ion concentration exhibiting the maximum emission intensity under the excitation of 147nm-vacuum ultraviolet ray was 0.25mol%. And the decay time of the phosphor was shorter than 10ms.

This study investigates the mechanism of MnS precipitation on $Al_2O_3-SiO_2$ inclusions during the solidification of non-oriented silicon steel, especially the influence of the phase structures and sizes of the oxides on the MnS precipitation, by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive spectrometry. The investigation results show that MnS tends to nucleate on submicron-sized $Al_2O_3-SiO_2$ inclusions formed by interdendritic segregation and that it covers the oxides completely. In addition, MnS can precipitate on micron-sized oxides and its precipitation behavior is governed by the phase structure of the oxides. The MnS embryo formed in a MnO-containing oxide can act as a substrate for MnS precipitation, thus permitting further growth via diffusion of solute atoms from the matrix. MnS also precipitates in a MnO-free oxide by the heterogeneous nucleation mechanism. Furthermore, MnS is less prone to precipitation in the $Al_2O_3$-rich regions of the $Al_2O_3-SiO_2$ inclusions; this can be explained by the high lattice disregistry between MnS and $Al_2O_3$.

$BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ was prepared by urea-induced homogeneous precipitation and characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. At increased precipitant concentrations, AlOOH replaced $Al(OH)_3$ as an Al precursor. $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ exhibited enhanced catalytic combustion performance and inhibited CO generation. Catalytic performance was also enhanced by the presence of $BaAl_2O_4$ and $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$. Compared to $BaAl_2O_4$, $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ exhibited superior catalytic combustion activity.

The sintering phenomena and piezoelectric properties of PZT ceramics of composition $Pb(Zr_{0.54} Ti_{0.46})O_3$ were investigated when a small quantity of $La_2O_3$ , $LaMnO_3$, $LaCrO_3$ were added. The unwanted chemical composition change in PZT during sinterin porces du to PbO evaporation poses a severe problem in PZt manufacturinig. It is observed tat an addition of small amount of $LaMnO_3$ to PZT markedly decreases the evaporation of PbO during sintering . The green compact of (1-x) PZT.xLaMnO3(x=0.02~0.10) could be sintered of under O2 atmosphere alone with no significant loss of PbO. The planar coupling factor kp of the sintered $0.98Pb(Zr_{0.54} Ti_{0.46})O_{3.0.02}LaMnO}3$ is similar to that of commercial PZT 6A. Microstructure investigation shows that part of sintering process of $Pb(Zr, Ti)O_3$.$LaMnO_3$ system progresses via liquid phase sintering. It is believed that the evaporation of PbO in PZT sintering is restricted by the addition of $LaMnO_3$ due to the above phenomena. Furthermore the solid solution of $LaMnO_3$ in PZT causes diffuses phase transition.

$Li_{4/3}Mn_{5/3}O_4$ having a defect structure was prepared by sol-gel process using lithium acetate and manganese acetate as starting materials, and their electrode characteristics in the lithium secondary battery was investigated. The reaction mole ratio was determined as $AA/Mn(OAc)_2$ of 0.2 and $NH_4OH/Mn(OAc)_2$ to $H_2O/Mn(OAc)_2$ of 0.4. The product was obtained through heat treatment at $350^{\circ}C$ for 12hrs after 1'st heat treatment at $150^{\circ}C$ of xerogel under oxygen atmosphere. When the charge and discharge cycles were performed between 2.0 V and 3.2 V, $Li/Li_{4/3}Mn_{5/3}O_4$ cell showed the dicharge capacity of 84.23 mAh/g and the good cycleability was obtained in the plateau region.

In many papers, the electrochemical analysis of LiMn$_2$O$_4$shows the transition results of Mn$^{3+}$ ion. Charge ordering is accompanied by simultaneous orbital ordering due to the Jahn-Teller effect in Mnl$^{3+}$ ions. To analyze the cycle performance of LiMn$_{2-x}$Cu$_{x}$ O$_4$as the cathode of 4 V class lithium secondary batteries, XRD, TGA analysis were conducted. Although the cycle performance of the LiMn$_{2-x}$Cu$_{x}$ O$_4$was improved from pure LiMn$_2$O$_4$, the discharge capacity was significantly lower than LiCoO$_2$. In this paper, We study the Electrochemical characterization and enhanced stability of Cu-doped spinels in the LiMn$_{2-x}$Cu$_{x}$ O$_4$upon initial cycling.l cycling.

In order to improve the brightness and chromaticity of green emitting low voltage phosphor for FED, we examine PL, PLE and CL emission characteristics of ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O prepared in Ar and vacuum. ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O sintered in vacuum shows about 16 times as bright as the one fabricated in Ar and excellent chromaticity. In PL emission spectra of ZnGa$_{2}$O$_{4}$:Mn,O at low temperature of 9 K, two peaks are observed at 504 nm and 513 nm. At room temperature, the two peaks are superimposed due to the lattice thermal vibrational energy, and only one peak is observed at 509 nm. From PLE measurements, it is believed that the energy levels of the host lattice and Mn ions are coexisted. The energy transfer from the host lattice to the emission center of Mn$^{2+}$ ions occurs.s.

As one of the thermochemical water splitting hydrogen production cycles, which could be operated at the lower temperature below 1200 K, we investigated the feasibility of the cyclic operation of Ispra Mark 2 cycle with the addition of $ZrO_2$. The cycle is theoretically composed of three reaction steps; (1) 1st step($2MnO_2{\rightarrow}Mn_2O_3+0.5O_2$), (2) 2nd step($Mn_2O_3+4NaOH{\rightarrow}2Na_2O{\cdot}MnO_2+H_2+H_2O$) and (3) 3rd step($2Na_2O{\cdot}MnO_2H_2O{\rightarrow}4NaOH+2MnO_2$). From the TPR tests, the temperature ranges for $O_2$ production in 1st step and $H_2$ production in 2nd step were $550{\sim}750^{\circ}C$ and $650{\sim}750^{\circ}C$, respectively. In $MnO_2/Mn_2O_3/NaOH$ system, the formation of molten products due to the reaction between manganese oxides and NaOH were greatly decreased with the addition of $ZrO_2$. In addition, the results of a cyclic test were discussed with the viewpoint of $H_2$ production amounts and the feasibility of the process improvement.
