Copper (Cu)-based catalysts have been widely used in a methanol steam reforming (MSR) reaction for hydrogen production for air-independent propulsion (AIP) applications and their good catalytic activities have attracted much attention. However, the agglomeration of the catalytic active site Cu causes deteriorating the catalytic performance and suppression of Cu agglomeration is a crucial issue in the AIP applications that the MSR system is typically operated at 250-300℃ for a long time. R. Sakai et al. recently showed a computational study on the anchoring effect that reduces an agglomeration of active sites by doping in a supporter. In order to present the anchoring effect on 𝛾-Al₂O₃ supported Cu-based catalysts, in this study, the adsorption energies of Cu on X-doped (X=ruthenium, phosphorus, silicon) 𝛾-Al₂O₃ were calculated and Cu adsorption energy decreased due to a change of the electronic structure originated from doping, thereby proving the anchoring effect.

Eu-doped lead zirconium titanate $Pb_{1.1}(Zr_{0.3}Ti_{0.7})O_{3}$ thin films on the Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates prepared by a metalorganic decomposition (MOD) method. The effect on the structural and electrical properties of the films measured according to Eu content. Eu-doping altered significantly the dielectric and ferroelectric properties. The remanent polarization and coercive field decreased with increasing the concentration of Eu content. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the film decreased with increasing Eu contents. The 3 mol% of Eu-doped PZT thin film showed large remanent polarization and the fatigue characteristic of the film did not change up to $10^9$ switching cycles.

$Eu^{2+}/Dy^{3+}$-doped $Sr_2MgSi_2O_7$ powders were synthesized using a solid-state reaction method with flux ($NH_4Cl$). The broad photoluminescence (PL) excitation spectra of $Sr_2MgSi_2O_7:Eu^{2+}$ were assigned to the $4f^7-4f^65d$ transition of the $Eu^{2+}$ ions, showing strong intensities in the range of 375 to 425 nm. A single emission band was observed at 470 nm, which was the result of two overlapping subbands at 468 and 507 nm owing to Eu(I) and Eu(II) sites. The strongest emission intensity of $Sr_2MgSi_2O_7:Eu^{2+}$ was obtained at the Eu concentration of 3 mol%. This concentration quenching mechanism was attributable to dipole-dipole interaction. The $Ba^{2+}$ substitution for $Sr^{2+}$ caused a blue-shift of the emission band; this behavior was discussed by considering the differences in ionic size and covalence between $Ba^{2+}$ and $Sr^{2+}$. The effects of the Eu/Dy ratios on the phosphorescence of $Sr_2MgSi_2O_7:Eu^{2+}/Dy^{3+}$ were investigated by measuring the decay time; the longest afterglow was obtained for $0.01Eu^{2+}/0.03Dy^{3+}$.

We have synthesized a $Eu^{2+}-activated\;{(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_4$ yellow phosphor and investigated the development of blue LEDs by combining the phosphor with a InGaN blue LED chip (${\lambda}_{em}$=405 nm). The InGaN-based ${(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_{4}:Eu$ LED lamp shows two bands at 405 nm and 550 nm. The 405 nm emission band is due to a radiative recombination from a InGaN active layer. This 405 nm emission was used as an optical transition of the ${(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_{4}:Eu$ phosphor. The 550 nm emission band is ascribed to a radiative recombination of $Eu^{2+}$ impurity ions in the ${(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_4$ host matrix. In the preparation of UV Yellow LED Lamp with ${(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_{4}:Eu$ yellow phosphor, the highest luminescence efficiency was obtained at the epoxy-to-yellow phosphor ratio of 1:0.45. At this ratio, the CIE chromaticity was x=0.4097 and y=0.5488.

Nanocomposite of Te doped $SiO_2$ films was prepared for the new functional materials like non-linear optic materials, selective absorption and transmission films. The effects of particle size and morphology with different hydrolysis conditions on the properties were examined with TGA/DTA. XRD. UV-spectrometer, SPM, SEM and EDS. It was found that Te/$SiO_2$ films showed high absorption peak at 550nm visible region by plasma resonance of Te fine particles. The Rm surface roughness of the films was about 2.5 nm and the size of Te particles was 5~10nm.

The characteristics of Ga-doped zinc oxide (GZO) thin films deposited at different deposition temperatures (TS~250 to $550^{\circ}C$) on 4H-SiC have been investigated. Structural and electrical properties of GZO thin film on n-type 4H-SiC(0001) were investigated by using x-ray diffraction(XRD), atomic force microscopy(AFM), Hall effect measurement, barrier height from I-V curve and Auger electron spectroscopy(AES). XRD $2\theta$ scan shows GZO thin film has preferential orientation with c-axis perpendicular to SiC substrate surface. The lowest resistivity ($\sim1.9{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$) was observed for the GZO thin film deposited at $400^{\circ}C$. As deposition temperature increases, barrier height between GZO and SiC was increased. Whereas, resistivity of GZO thin films as well as barrier height between GZO and SiC were increased after annealing process in air atmosphere. It has been found that the c-axis oriented crystalline quality as well as the relative amount of activated Ga3+ ions and oxygen vacancy may affect the electrical properties of GZO films on SiC.

This paper investigates how various concentrations of lithium ion influence on crystallization of MgO in thin films formed by spin coating and an the discharge characteristic in a flat fluorescent lamp structure. The XRD results indicate $Li^+$ ion enhances the growth of MgO crystal in a spin coated thin film. The discharge property with the $Li^+$ ion doped MgO films show the lithium ion in MgO film clearly reduce the initial discharge voltages of test devices. Interestingly, the test panels with various doped MgO film have somewhat higher static memory margin of than that of pure-MgO owing probably to the pore structure of spin coated MgO films. The CL spectra, which confirm that the doping creates defects energy levels in the band gap of MgO, show the $F^+$ center is the main defects in doped MgO films.

The low temperature electron mobilities were investigated in Si/$Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ modulation Doped (MOD) quantum well structure with thermally grown oxide. N-type Si/$Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ structures were fabricated by a gas source MBE. Thermal oxidation was carried out in a dry $O_2$ atmosphere at $700^{\circ}C$ for 7 hours. Electron mobilities were measured by a Hall effect and a magnetoresistant effect at low temperatures down to 0.4 K. Pronounced Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations were observed at a low temperature showing two dimensional electron gases (2 DEG) in a tensile strained Si quantum well. The electron sheet density ($n_{s}$) of 1.5${\times}$$10^{12}$[$cm^{-2}$] and corresponding electron mobility of 14200 [$cm^2$$V^{-1}$$s^{-1}$] were obtained at low temperature of 0.4 K from Si/$Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ MOD quantum well structure with thermally grown oxide.
