The present study aims at the examination of the effects of 1 mol% NiO addition on the reaction, microstructure development, resultant electrical properties, and especially the bulk trap and interface state levels of $ZnO-Bi_2O_3-Sb_2O_3$ (Sb/Bi=0.5, 1.0, and 2.0) systems (ZBS). The samples were prepared by conventional ceramic process, and characterized by density, XRD, SEM, I-V, impedance and modulus spectroscopy (IS & MS) measurement. The sintering and electrical properties of Ni-doped ZBS (ZBSN) systems were controlled by Sb/Bi ratio. Pyrochlore ($Zn_2Bi_3Sb_3O_{14}$) was decomposed more than $100^{\circ}C$ lowered in ZBS (Sb/Bi=1.0) by Ni doping. The reproduction of pyrochlore was suppressed by the addition of Ni in ZBS. Between two polymorphs of $Zn_7Sb_2O_{12}$ spinel ($\alpha$ and $\beta$), microstructure of ZBSN (Sb/Bi=0.5) composed of a-spinel was more homogeneous than $Sb/Bi{\geq}1.0$ composed of $\beta$-spinel phase. In ZBSN, the varistor characteristics were not improved drastically (non-linear coefficient $\alpha\;=\;6{\sim}11$) and independent on microstructure according to Sb/Bi ratio. Doping of Ni to ZBS seemed to form ${V_0}^{\cdot}$ (0.33 eV) as dominant bulk defect. From IS & MS, especially the grain boundaries of Sb/Bi=0.5 systems were divided into two types, i.e. sensitive to oxygen and thus electrically active one and electrically inactive intergranular one with temperature.

A detailed investigation and structure of tested samples are clearly presented. As a reference, $Ge_1Se_1Te_2$/Sb only sample was also investigated. We used compound of Ge-Se-Te material for phase-change cell. Actually, the performance properties have been improved surprisingly then conventional Ge-Sb-Te. However, crystallization time was as long as ever for amorphization time. We conducted this esperiment in order to solve that problem by doping-Sb.

Electrical and Thermoelectric Properties of$ SbI_{3}$-doped 85% 85% $BiTe_{2}$$Se_{3}$ 단결정에서 전하 이동에 대한 살란인자는 0.1이었으며, 전자이동도와 정공이동도의 비($\mu_{e}$ /$\mu_{h}$ )는 1.45이었다. $SbI_{3}$의 첨가량이 증가할수록 전자 농도의 증가로 Seebek 계수와 전기비저항이 감소하며, Seebeck 계수와 전기비저항이 최대값을 나타내는 온도가 고온으로 이동하였다. $SbI_{3}$를 첨가한 85%$Bi_{2}$$Te_{3}$단결정에서 성능지수의 최대값은 $SbI_{3}$를 0.1 wt%첨가한 조성에서 $2.0 x 10^{-3}$ K이었다.

0.05wt% $SbI_3$를 첨가한 n형 $ Bi_2(Te(_{0.95}Se_{0.05})_3$ 합금분말을 용해/분쇄법으로 제조하여 가압소결 후, 36시간까지의 열처리 시간에 따른 열전특성의 변화 거동을 분석하였다. 열처리 시간이 증가함에 따라 0.05wt% $SbI_3$를 첨가한 n형 $ Bi_2(Te(_{0.95}Se_{0.05})_3$ 가압소결체의 전자 농도가 감소하였다. 0.05wt% $SbI_3$를 첨가한 $Bi_2(Te(_{0.95}Se_{0.05})_3$ 가압소결체는 $2.1{\times}10^{-3}/K$의 성능지수를 나타내었으며 $500^{\circ}C$에서 3시간 열처리 시 $2.35{\times}10^{-3}/K$로 성능지수가 향상되었으나, 12시간 이상 열처리 시에는 전기비저항의 증가에 기인하여 성능지수의 현저한 감소가 발생하였다.

An electronic nose system is an instrument designed far mimicking human olfactory system. It consists generally of gas (odor) sensor array corresponding to olfactory receptors of human nose and artificial neural network pattern recognition technique based on human biological odor sensing mechanism. Considerable attempts to develop the electronic nose system have been made far applications in the fields of floods, drinks, cosmetics, environment monitoring, etc. A portable electronic nose system has been fabricated by using oxide semiconductor gas sensor array and pattern recognition technique such as principal component analysis (PCA) and back propagation artificial neural network The sensor array consists of six thick film gas sensors whose sensing layers are Pd-doped WO$_3$ Pt-doped SnO$_2$ TiO$_2$-Sb$_2$O$_3$-Pd-doped SnO$_2$ TiO$_2$-Sb$_2$O$_{5}$-Pd-doped SnO$_2$+Pd filter layer, A1$_2$O$_3$-doped ZnO and PdCl$_2$-doped SnO$_2$. As an application the system has been used to identify CO/HC car exhausting gases and the identification has been successfully demonstrated.d.

The behavior of oxygen gas participating in fining was observed in CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) glass melts doped with $Sb_2O_5\;or\;CeO_2$ by means of a yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrode. The temperature dependence of the oxygen equilibrium pressure ($P_{o2}$) or the activity in both melts showed typical behavior corresponding to a theoretical redox reaction. In other words, the $P_{o2}$ value of melts with $CeO_2$ was lower than that of melts with $Sb_2O_5$ above $1250^{\circ}C$. The result implies that $Sb_2O_5$, is more efficient as a fining agent compared to $CeO_2$. On the other hand, melts from a batch containing $Sb_2O_5\;and\;KNO_3$ showed much higher $P_{o2}$ values compared to melts without $KNO_3$ above $1350^{\circ}C$. It is suggested that the addition of $KNO_3$ to CRT glass batch contributes partly to the first fining of the melts.

Antimony doped tin oxide ($SnO_2:Sb$) films, which are used as the front contact and back reflector of thin film solar cells, have been deposited by d,c, magnetron sputtering. The dependence of electrical and optical properties of the films on the preparation conditions, such as $O_2$ gas ratio, substrate temperature, annealing temperature was investigated. The sputter gas composition was found to affect the properties of the films. With incorporating $O_2$ gas, the electrical and optical properties of films significantly were improved. The minimum resistivity and optical transmittance over 80 % in visible region were obtained at the oxygen concentration of 30 %, When the substrate temperature was higher, the resistivity of $SnO_2:Sb$ films was decreased, while the absorption edge shifted to shorter wavelength, indicating higher optical band gap. Heat treatment over $600^{\circ}C$ resulted in poorer electrical and optical properties due to SnO phase (102) plane.

Transparent conductive thin films have found many applications in active and passive electronic and opto-electronic devices such as flat panel display electrode, solar cell electrode and window heat mirror, etc. Low resistivity and high transmittance of these films can beotained by controlling deposition parameters which are oxygen partial pressure, substrate temperature and dopant concentration. In this study, non-stoichiometric and Sb-doped thin electrical properties of undoped films have been degraded with increase of substrate temperature and optical properties have been improved in Sb-doped films. The resistivity of $2.5\times10^{-3}\Omega\textrm{cm}$,/TEX>, average transmittance of 80% and sheet resistance of 130$\Omega$/$\square$ at thickess of 2000 $\AA$ could be obrained at optmal condimal conditions which were at $400^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature, 58% of oxygen partial pressure and 5% of Sb doping concentration.

Zintl compound Mg₃Sb₂ is a promising candidate for efficient thermoelectric material due to its small band gap energy and characteristic electron-crystal phonon-glass behavior. Furthermore, this compound enables fine tuning of carrier concentration via chemical doping for optimizing thermoelectric performance. In this study, nominal compositions of Mg_3.8Sb_2-xTe_x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.03) are synthesized through controlled melting and subsequent vacuum hot pressing method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) are carried out to investigate phase development and surface morphology during the process. It should be noted that 16 at. % of excessive Mg must be added to the system to compensate for the loss of Mg during melting process. Herein, thermoelectric properties such as Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity are evaluated from low to high temperature regimes. The results show that Te substitution at Sb sites effectively tunes the majority carriers from holes to electrons, resulting in a transition from p to n-type. At 873 K, a peak ZT value of 0.27 is found for the specimen Mg_3.8Sb_1.99Te_0.01, indicating an improved ZT value over the intrinsic value.
