This paper is dealing a $V_3O_5-P_2O_5$ metal oxide glass semiconductor. This semiconductor is easy to fabricate in the atmospheric condition at relatively low temperature. The element is made like a bead, and platinum segments are used as electrodes. Other kind of metal withstanding high temperature near 1000C can also be used as electrode. Experiment verifies that the fabricated element has the resistance in the order of about ~$10^5\;\Omega$, and shows negative resistance characteristics and switching characteristics with respect to temperature. An equivalent circuit of the element is proposed based on its electrical characteristcs.

We describe the fabrication and characterization of a doubly clamped multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT). The device was assembled by an application of electric field in solution. The MWNT was clamped on end of metal trench electrodes in solution and deposited with additional platinum (Pt) on edge of electrode for firmly suspending the MWNT by focused ion beam (FIB). The MWNTs range of diameter and length were 100 to 150 nm and 1.5 to $2{\mu}m$, respectively. Electrical characteristics of fabricated devices were measured by I-V curve and impedance analysis. The mechanical deformation was observed by resistivity in high air pressure. Resonant frequency around 6.8 MHz was detected and resistivity was linearly varied according to the magnitude of air pressure. This device could have potential applications in nanoelectronics and various sensors.

Pt loaded porous carbon Pt/C electrode was prepared by hot pressing process to enhance the electrode performance in PAFC (phosphoric acid fuel cell). By changing the hot pressing conditions and PTFE contents, Pt/C electrodes were prepared and the electrochemical characteristics of oxygen reduction and unit-cell performance were evaluated. The optimum condition of hot press to make electrode is 360$^{\circ}C$ and 10 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Maximum performance was obtained at 30 wt% PTFE content in the catalyst layer with 80% utilization of platinum clusters. Unit-cell performance of hot pressed Pt/C electrode was 200 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 700 ㎷ and stable performance was maintained more than 200 hr.

The composite of ionic polymer and metal has been fabricated and used for actuators. Platinum is deposited by electroless plating method onto the both sides of ionic polymer where ac voltage is applied. This results in the bending motion of a beam type actuator. In this paper, the fabrication method of ionic polymer-metal composite has been explained and the moving mechanism has been fabricated and measured using the ionic polymer-metal composite actuator. The moving mechanism is wireless type and the power is supplied through the rail electrodes in base plate. The maximum speed of the moving mechanism was about 24cm/min.

In this paper, thin film bulk acoustic resonator(TFBAR) lattice and balanced type filter topologies are designed and fabricated. Aluminium nitride and platinum are used for piezoelectric material and top and bottom electrodes, respectively. Air-gap is placed to avoid silicon substrate loading effect and the performance of these lattice and balanced filters is compared with ladder filters. These filters have selectivity over 15 dB for lattice type and 30 dB for balanced type and reveal wider bandwidth of the ladder filters. For balanced type filters, minor tuning procedure is not needed and they are readily available for RF filter in wireless applications.

The electronic properties of quantum dots can be tuned by changing the size of particles without any change in their chemical composition. CdSe quantum dots, the sizes of which were controlled by changing the concentrations of Cd and Se precursors, were adsorbed on $TiO_2$ photoelectrodes and used as sensitizers for photovoltaic cells. For applications of CdSe quantum dot as sensitizers, $CdSe/TiO_2$ films on conducting glass were employed in a sandwich-type cell that incorporated a platinum-coated conductive glass and an electrolyte consisting of an $I^-/I_3^-$ redox. The fill factor (FF) and efficiency for energy conversion ($\c{c}$) of the photovoltaic cell was 62 % and 0.32 %, respectively.

The redox behavior of a [Ni6(μ3-Se)2(μ4-Se)3(Fe(η 5-C5H4P-Ph2)2)3] (= [Ni-Se-dppf], dppf = 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino) ferrocene) cluster was studied using platinum (Pt) and glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) in nonaqueous media. The cluster showed electrochemical activity at the potential range between +1.6 and ?1.6 V. In the negative region (0 to ?1.6 V), the cluster exhibited two-step reductions. The first step was one-electron reversible, while the second step was a five-electron quasi-reversible process. On the other hand, in the positive region (0 to +1.6 V), the first step involved one-electron quasi-reversible process. The applicability of the cluster was found towards the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 and was evaluated by experiments using rotating ring disc electrode (RRDE). RRDE experiments demonstrated that two electrons were involved in the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to CO at the Se-Ni-dppf-modified electrode.

Metal ferroelectric semiconductor Field Effect- Transistors(MFSFET) with various gate electrodes, that are aluminum, platinum and poly -Si, using LiNbO$_3$/Si(100) structures were fabricated and the properties of the FETs have been discussed. The drain current of the state of FET with Pt electrode was more than 3 orders of magnitude larger than the state current at the same gate voltage of 1.5 V, 7.rich means the memory operation of the MFSFET. A write voltage as low as about $\pm$4 V, which is applicable to low power integrated circuits, was used for polarization reversal. The retention properties of the FET using Al electrode were quite good up to about 10$^3$s and using Pt electrode remained almost the same value of its initial value over 2 days at room temperature.

A thin film of silver ferricyanide (Ag$_3$Fe(CN)$_6$) on a platinum or gold substrates can be reduced electrochemically to the salt of silver ferrocyanide in potassium nitrate solution. The color of these films are orange and these films are shown to be electrochromic. The voltammogram is shown the asymmetry of the oxidation compared to the reduction wave under various supporting electrolytes. The standard heterogeneous electron-transfer rate for these films and bare Pt electrode were 0.49 ${\times}$ l0$^{-2}$ and 1.30 ${\times}$ l0$^{-2}$ cm/s, respectively, obtained using a rotating disc electrode. Rough D$_0$ values, evaluated from the Levich equation, for Fe(CN)$_6^{3-/4-}$ at both SF thin film and a bare Pt disc electrode were shown as 1.2l ${\times}$ l0-6 and 0.94 ${\times}$ l0$^{-6}$ cm$^2$/s, respectively. The conductivities, as determined from the slops of the i-V curves for a ca. 1 mm sample for dried SF potassium rich and deficient bulk samples pressed between graphite electrodes, were 9.34 ${\times}$ l0$^{-9}$ and 5.80 ${\times}$ l0$^{-9}$ (${\Omega}$${\cdot}$cm)$^{-1}$, respectively.

Studies have been carried out on the fabrication of PPy/GC and PPy/Pt electrode modified with polypyrrole film and determination of Cr(VI) by using 3-electrode system with modified electrodes. Modified electrodes were able to easily fabricated by cyclic voltammetry scanned from +1.0V to -1.0V(vs. Ag/AgCl) at 50 mV/sec. Film thickness could be controlled at same condition by the number of cycling up to 26 times. Reduction behaviour of Cr(VI) at PPy/GC electrode could be seen at wide potential ranges from +0.6V to -0.5V(vs. Ag/AgCl), and maximum reduction peak potential of the ion was observed at -0.25V(vs.Ag/AgCl). Calibration graph at its potential was linear from 0.1 ppm to 80.O ppm. Slope factor and relative coefficient were 1.75 mA/ppm and 0.998, respectively. Reduction behaviour of Cr(VI) at PPy/Pt electrode was similar to PPy/GC electrode, Calibration graph was linear from l.0 ppm to 60.0 ppm. Slope factor and relative coefficient were 0.5mA/ppm and 0.923, respectively. But PPy/GC modified electrode had about 3 times higher sensitivity than PPy/Pt modified electrode. Reduction behaviour of Cu(II), As(IlI), Pb(II), and Cd(II) couldn't be seen at PPy/GC electrode,Its metals had not lnterfered with Cr (VI) determination.
