The $(Sr_{1-x}Ca_x)TiO_3$(ST) thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode(Pt/TiN/$SiO_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method with substitutional contents of Ca. The maximum grain of thin films is obtained by substitution of Ca at 15[mol%]. Also, the composition of ST thin films were closed to stoichiometry(1.081~1.117 in A/B ratio). The dielectric constant changes almost linearly in temperature ranges of -80~+90[$^{\circ}C$]. The current-voltage characteristics of ST15 thin films showed the increasing leakage current as the measuring temperature increases.

Dye-sensitized solar cells(DSSCs) have been recognized as an alternative to the conventional p-n junction solar cells because of their simple fabrication process, low production cost, and transparency. A typical DSSC consists of a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) electrode, a dye-sensitized oxide semiconductor nanoparticle layer, liquid redox electrolyte, and a Pt-counter electrode. In dye-sensitized solar cells, charge recombination processes at interfaces between coducting glass, $TiO_2$, dye, and electrolyte play an important role in limiting the photon-to-electron conversion efficiency. A layer of ZTO thin film less than ~200nm in thickness, as a blocking layer, was deposited by DC magnetron sputtering method directly onto the anode electrode to be isolated from the electrolyte in dye-sensitized solar cells(DSCs). This is to prevent the electrons from back-transferring from the electrode to the electrolyte ($I^-/I_3^-$). The presented DSCs were fabricated with working electrode of Ga-doped ZnO glass coated with blocking ZTO layer, dye-attached nanoporous $TiO_2$ layer, gel electrolyte and counter electrode of Pt-deposited GZO glass. The effects of blocking layer were studied with respect to impedance and conversion efficiency of the cells.

Three types of piezoelectric single crystals [PMN-PT (Generation I $[Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-PbTiO_3]$), PMN-PZT (Generation II $[Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-Pb(Zr,Ti)O_3]$), PMN-PZT-Mn (Generation III)] were grown by the solid-state single crystal growth (SSCG) method, and their dielectric and piezoelectric properties were measured and compared. Compared to (001) PMN-PT and PMN-PZT single crystals, the (001) PMN-PZT-Mn single crystals exhibited a higher transition temperature between the rhombohedral and tetragonal phases ($T_{RT}=144^{\circ}C$), as well as a higher coercive electric field ($E_C=6.3kV/cm$) and internal bias field ($E_I=1.6kV/cm$). The (011) PMN-PZT-Mn single crystals showed the highest coercive electric field ($E_C=7.0kV/cm$), and the highest stability of $E_C$ and $E_I$ during 60 cycles of polarization measurement. These results demonstrate that both Mn doping (for higher electromechanical quality factor ($Q_m$)) and a (011) crystallographic orientation (for higher coercive electric field and stability) are necessary for high power transducer applications of these piezoelectric single crystals. Specifically, the (011) PMN-PZT-Mn single crystal (Gen. III) had the highest potential for application in the fields of SONAR transducers, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), ultrasonic motors, and others.

In this work, the $TiO_2$ and $SnO_2$ thin films as blocking layers were coated directly onto the metal-mesh electrode surface to prevent unnecessary inflow of back-transfer electrons from the electrolyte ($I^-/I_3^-$) to the metal-mesh electrode. The DSCs were fabricated with working electrode of SUS mesh coated with blocking $TiO_2$ and $SnO_2$ layers, dye-attached mesoporous $TiO_2$ film, gel electrolyte and counter electrode of Pt-deposited F:$SnO_2$. From the experimental result, it was ascertained that the efficiency of metal electrode coated with $TiO_2$ by Dip-coating was superior to that of metal electrode coated with $SnO_2$ by Dip-coating and screen printing with the results of experiments. The photo-current conversion efficiency of the cell obtained from optimum fabrication condition was 3% ($V_{oc}$=0.61V, $J_{sc}$=11.64 mA/$cm^2$, ff=0.64) under AM1.5, 100 mW/$cm^2$ illumination.

The dielectric and polarizable properties of 0.85Pb$Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3}$)$O_3$-$0.125PbTiO_3$-$0.25BaTiO_3$ Ceramics have been investigated as a addition of the amount of $La_{2}O_{3}$($0{\leq}x{\geq}0.05$). The Temperature-dependant electrostictive characteristics of 0.85PMN-0.125PT-0.25BT relaxor ferroelectic system were improved by enhencing the extent of the diffuse phase transition(DPT). This was achieved using PMN-PT-BTceramics by the partial substitution of La at the Pb site. The curie temperature and the maximum dielectic permittivity decreased by substituting $La_{2}O_{3}$ and the electic field-related hysteresis phenomena decreased with increasing $La_{2}O_{3}$ substitution amount. It is showed decreasing in induced strain for electric field with increasing $La_{2}O_{3}$ substitution.

$TiO_2$ nanowires were self-catalytically synthesized on bare Si(100) substrates using metallorganic chemical vapor deposition. The nanowire formation was critically affected by growth temperature. The $TiO_2$ nanowires were grown at a high density on Si(100) at $510^{\circ}C$, which is near the complete decomposition temperature ($527^{\circ}C$) of the Ti precursor $(Ti(O-iPr)_2(dpm)_2)$. At $470^{\circ}C$, only very thin (< $0.1{\mu}m$) $TiO_2$ film was formed because the Ti precursor was not completely decomposed. When growth temperature was increased to $550^{\circ}C$ and $670^{\circ}C$, the nanowire formation was also significantly suppressed. A vaporsolid (V-S) growth mechanism excluding a liquid phase appeared to control the nanowire formation. The $TiO_2$ nanowire growth seemed to be activated by carbon, which was supplied by decomposition of the Ti precursor. The $TiO_2$ nanowire density was increased with increased growth pressure in the range of 1.2 to 10 torr. In addition, the nanowire formation was enhanced by using Au and Pt catalysts, which seem to act as catalysts for oxidation. The nanowires consisted of well-aligned ~20-30 nm size rutile and anatase nanocrystallines. This MOCVD synthesis technique is unique and efficient to self-catalytically grow $TiO_2$ nanowires, which hold significant promise for various photocatalysis and solar cell applications.

Mn-doped Pb(In_1/2Nb_1/2)O₃-Pb(Mg_2/3Nb_1/3)O₃-PbTiO₃ (Mn:PIN-PMN-PT) single crystals, which exhibit improved phase transition temperatures and coercive field properties compared to Pb(In_1/2Nb_1/2)O₃-Pb(Mg_2/3Nb_1/3)O₃-PbTiO₃ (PIN-PMN-PT) single crystals, are expected to be utilized in high-power acoustic transducers. Bridgeman method, growing single crystals along the axial direction from melt, is most widely used method for single crystal growth with large size and high quality. However, single crystal boules grown by the Bridgeman method demonstrate a PT compositional variation, giving rise a distribution of crystal structure and material properties along the growing axis. To employ piezoelectric single crystals grown by the Bridgeman method for acoustic transducers, it is essential to investigate their overall property distribution. In this study, the compositional distribution and property variation of Mn:PIN-PMN-PT single crystals grown by the Bridgeman method was investigated. Measured compositional distribution of PT was from 29% to 32.5% in the Rhombohedral crystal region of the boule. Two types of specimen, [011]-poled Mn:PIN-PMN-29PT and Mn:PIN-PMN-32PT single crystals, were fabricated and tested to obtain full property variation at both ends of the Rhombohedral crystal region. The properties related to the 32 directional vibration mode and the properties related to high-power driving were measured to confirm the overall distribution of properties by composition.

본 연구에서는 포름알데히드를 상온산화시켜 제거하는 $Pt/TiO_2$ 촉매의 상용화 인자들이 조사되었다. 활성 귀금속 함량 최적화를 위해 촉매의 백금(Pt) 담지량을 변화시켜 제조 후 성능을 평가하였으며, 그 결과 1wt% 함량이 가장 이상적인 함량임을 확인하였다. 또한 활성금속인 Pt를 환원하여 제조한 환원 촉매가 상온에서 우수한 포름알데히드 산화 능력을 나타내었다. 이를 통해 활성금속의 산화가에 따라 성능이 변화될 수 있으며, 백금의 경우 metallic Pt($Pt^0$)로 존재할수록 포름알데히드 상온산화 성능이 증진될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 촉매의 운전인자를 도출하기 위한 공간속도 영향 평가 결과 공간속도가 낮을수록 촉매량 증가에 의해 포름알데히드 전환율이 증진되는 결과를 나타내었다. 또한 공기 내 반드시 존재하는 물질인 수분의 공기 내 공존 시 영향 평가를 실시하였으며, 그 결과 수분이 공존할 때 포름알데히드 산화반응이 수분이 존재하지 않은 조건에서의 활성보다 증진되었다. 상기 결과들을 통해 어떤 추가 에너지원 없이도 포름알데히드를 제거 할 수 있는 상온산화 촉매 상용화를 위한 핵심인자들을 확인하였다.
