[ $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_3$ ] (BST) dielectric thin films doped by Cr were prepared using an alkoxide-based sol-gel method on the Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate. Atomic force microscopy and x-ray diffraction analysis showed that increasing the Cr doping ratio causes increased grain size while the surface remains smooth and crack-free. It was also found that compared with undoped films the increase of Cr content in BST improves the dielectric constant and the leakage-current characteristics. The figure of merit reached the maximum value of 72.3 at the 5 mol % of Cr doping. This composition showed the dielectric constant of 426, the loss factor of 0.0065, tenability of 47.7%, and leakage-current density (at the electric field of 100 kV/cm) of $5.31{\times}10^{-8}A/cm^2$. The results show that the Cr-doped BST thin films are prospective candidates for applications in tunable devices.

We have deposited NiO films by RF sputtering on $Al_2O_3/SiO_2/Si$ and 100 nm-thick Gd doped $CeO_2$ covered $Al_2O_3/SiO_2/Si$ substrates at various $Ar/O_2$ ratios. The deposited films were reduced to form porous Ni thin fllms in 4% $H_2\;at\;400^{\circ}C$. For the films deposited in pure Ar, the reduction was retarded due to the thickness and the orientation of the NiO films. On the other hand, the films deposited in oxygen mixed ambient were reduced and formed porous Ni films after 20 min of reduction. We also investigated the possibility of using the films for the single chamber operation by studying the electrical property of the films in the fuel/air mixed environment. It is shown that the resistance of the Ni film increases quickly in the mixed gas environment and thus further improvements of Ni-base anodes are required for using them in the single chamber operation.

In this research, the fabrication of Si/SiO$_2$optical waveguide amplifier by FHD(Flame Hydrolysis Deposition) and Solution Doping was carried out. It was observed that the reduction of fluorescence was prevented up to 0.14 wt% Er whn 0.48 wt% Al was doped and the FWHA of $1.5mutextrm{m}$ fluorescence band increased by 5 nm as increasing amount of Al. Therefore from these results, we could confirm depressing concentration quenching of Er ions and increasing FWHM of fluorescence spectrum by addition of Al.

We have studied the $TiO_2$ doping effects on the flux pinning behavior of an $MgB_2$ superconductor synthesized by the in-situ solid-state reaction. From the field-cooled and zero-field-cooled temperature dependences of magnetization, the reversible-irreversible transition of $TiO_2$-doped $MgB_2$ was determined in the H-T diagram (the temperature dependence of upper critical magnetic field and irreversibility line). For comparison, the similar measurements are also obtained from SiC-doped $MgB_2$. The critical current density was estimated from the width of hysteresis loops in the framework of Bean's model at different temperatures. The obtained results manifest that nano-scale $TiO_2$ inclusions served as effective pinning centers and lead to the enhanced upper critical field and critical current density. It was concluded that the grain boundary pinning mechanism was realized in a $TiO_2$-doped $MgB_2$ superconductor.

No-doped PZT thin films have been fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate using Sol-Gel technique. A fast annealing metho (three times of intermediate and final annealing) was used for the preparation of multi-coated 1800$\AA$ thick Nb-doped PZT thin films. As Nb doping percent was increased leakage current was lowered approximately 2 order but dielectic properties were degraded due to the appearance of pyrochlore phase and domain pinning. Futhermore the increase of the final annealing temperature up to 74$0^{\circ}C$lowered the pyrochlore phase content resulting in enhancing the dielectric properties of the Nb doped films. The 3%-Nb doped PZT thin films with 5% excess Pb showed a capacitance density of 24.04 fF/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$2 a dielectric loss of 0.13 a switchable polarization of 15.84 $\mu$C/cm2 and a coercive field of 32.7 kV/cm respectively. The leakage current density of the film was as low as 1.47$\times$10-7 A/cm2 at the applied voltage of 1.5 V.

The effects of $SiO_2$ and MnO addition on the sinterability and the electrical properties of 0.4mol% Nb-doped SrTiO3 varistor were investigated. The $SiO_2$ content was fixed at 0.3mol% and the MnO content varied from 0 to 1.0mol%. With 0.3 mol% $SiO_2$ and 0.3 mol% MnO addition, optimum density was obtained by sintering at $1200^{\circ}C$ without excess liquid phase. Impedance spectroscopy was performed on the sintered specimens with 0.3 mol% $SiO_2$ and various MnO contents. It was found that the resistivities of grains was increased with increasing MnO content. The dielectric constant was measured to be above 50000 in the specimen with 0.3~1.0mol% Mn content. The non-linear coefficient increased substantially with MnO addition, and it varied from 1 to 9 depending on the MnO content.

Ti-doped BSG (borosilicate glass) soot films on the silicone substrate have been deposited in the mixture of $SiCl_{4}$, TMB, $TiCL_{4}$ by flame hydrolysis deposition technique. The soot films are melted to form integrated fine glass films. We can fabricate thick films of serveral $10{\mu}m$ with deposition rate,more than $0.5{\mu}m$/min. Refractive index difference of BSG films are increased to more than 0.3% as function of the amount of Ti dopant. As a result of the process an optical waveguide which is simmilar with dimmension and refractive difference of optical fiber is produced. $BCl_{3}$ is widely used for B dopant, but we abtained the good results by the use of TMB in place of $BCl_{3}$. The melting point of silica soot glass is reduced to $1200^{\circ}C$ increasing B dopant. From FTIR analysis $B_2O_3$ content up to about lOmol% in BSG films. films.

Defect equilibrium equations were modelled, and the relations of P $o_2$, venus x were derived using the mass action law. The dominant defect species active in a specified region were determined by fitting the curve of experimental data to the calculated curve of log P $o_2$, versus log x for each theoretical model. The calculated curve for (2:1:2) and (Er')$^{x}$ in the hyperstoichiometric $U_{1-y}$E $r_{y}$ $O_{2＋x}$ and that for (2Er'quot;)$^{x}$ $_{dec}$ in the hypostoichiometric $U_{1-y}$E $r_{y}$ $O_{2－x}$ are in good agreement with the present experimental results. The sintering behavior of Er-doped U $O_2$ is observed with erbium content in oxidizing and reducing atmospheres. For sintering in oxidizing atmosphere, sintered density decreases as increasing y in $U_{1-y}$E $r_{y}$ $O_{2＋x}$. However, in hydrogen atmosphere, sintered density decreases as increasing y at lower erbium content but the density increases again above y=0.10. In oxidizing sintering conditions, the formation of (Er'U')$^{x}$ clusters hinders the diffusion of cations, and hence the sinterability of Er-doped U $O_2$ decreases. In reducing atmosphere of Er-doped U $O_2$ for higher Er concent, the oxygen vacancies make (Er')$^{x}$ cluster decompose by charge compensation and the concentration of mobile cations increases, thereby improving the sinterability.ntration of mobile cations increases, thereby improving the sinterability.ability.

A novel $Ce^{3+}$ doped $Lu_3MgAl_3SiO_{12}$ phosphor ($Lu_{2.94}Ce_{0.06}MgAl_3SiO_{12}$) was successfully synthesized by a conventional solid-state reaction at $1450^{\circ}C$ for 5 h. The crystal structure of the synthesized phosphor powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement. The prepared phosphor powder showed a broad peak at 550 nm, and the temperature dependence on photoluminescence properties of the prepared $Lu_{2.94}Ce_{0.06}MgAl_3SiO_{12}$ phosphor was investigated from 300 to 525 K. The activation energy for thermal quenching was determined by Arrhenius fitting. The experimental results clearly indicate that prepared $Lu_{2.94}Ce_{0.06}MgAl_3SiO_{12}$ phosphor has great potential for a down-conversion yellow phosphor in white light-emitting diodes.
