$SnO_2$-mixed and Sn-doped $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were synthesized via a hydrothermal process. $SnO_2$-mixed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles prepared in a neutral condition consisted of anatase $TiO_2$ nanoparticles(diamond shape, ~25 nm) and cassiterite $SnO_2$ nanoparticles(spherical shape, ~10 nm). On the other hand, Sn-doped $TiO_2$ nanoparticles obtained under a high acidic condition showed a crystalline phase corresponding to rutile $TiO_2$. As the Sn content increased, the particle shape changed from rod-like(d~40 nm, 1~200 nm) to spherical(18 nm) with a decrease in the particle size. The peak shift in the XRD results and a change of the c-axis lattice parameter with the Sn content demonstrate that the $TiO_2$ in the rutile phase was doped with Sn. The photocatalytic activity of the $SnO_2$-mixed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles dramatically increased and then decreased when the $SnO_2$ content exceeded 4%. The increased photocatalytic activity is mainly attributed to the improved charge separation of the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles with the $SnO_2$. In the case of Sn-doped $TiO_2$ nanoparticles, the photocatalytic activity increased slightly with the Sn content due most likely to the larger energy bandgap caused by Sn-doping and the decrease in the particle size. The $SnO_2$-mixed $TiO_2$ nanoparticles generally exhibited higher photocatalytic activity than the Sn-doped $TiO_2$ nanoparticles. This was caused by the phase difference of $TiO_2$.

Indium doped $SnO_2$ thick films for gas sensors were fabricated by a screen printing method on alumina substrates. The effects of indium concentration on the structural and morphological properties of the $SnO_2$ were investigated by X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscope. The structural properties of the $SnO_2$:In by X-ray diffraction showed a (110) dominant $SnO_2$ peak. The size of $SnO_2$ particles ranged from 0.05 to $0.1\;{\mu}m$, and $SnO_2$ particles were found to contain many pores, according to the SEM analysis. The thickness of the indium-doped $SnO_2$ thick films for gas sensors was about $20\;{\mu}m$, as confirmed by cross sectional SEM image. Sensitivity of the $SnO_2$:In gas sensor to 2000 ppm of $CO_2$ gas and 50 ppm of H2S gas was investigated for various indium concentrations. The highest sensitivity to $CO_2$ gas and H2S gas of the indium-doped $SnO_2$ thick films was observed at the 8 wt% and 4 wt% indium concentration, respectively. The good sensing performances of indium-doped $SnO_2$ gas sensors to $CO_2$ gas were attributed to the increase of oxygen vacancies and surface area in the $SnO_2$:In. The $SnO_2$:In gas sensors showed good selectivity to $CO_2$ gas.

$SnO_2$, Sb-doped $SnO_2$>, 그리고 백금촉매하에서 일산화탄소의 산화반응을 연구하였다. $SnO_2$ 및 Sb-doped $SnO_2$ 촉매하에서 산화반응은 CO 및 $O_2$에 대해서 각각 1차, 백금 촉매하에서는 1/2차 반응에 따랐다. $SnO_2$에 소량의 Sb첨가(dopant composition : 0.05∼0.1mole%)는 반응속도를 증가시키고 그 이상의 첨가는 오히려 반응속도를 감소시켰다. 백금 촉매하의 산화반응에서는 일산화탄소의 농도가 증가함에 따라 반응속도가 오히려 감소하는 억제효과를 보여주었다. 각 촉매하에서 산화반응의 활성화에너지는 Sb-dopoped $SnO_2$ 촉매 (dopant compisito : 0.05 mole%)에서 5.7 kcal, 백금 촉매에서 6.4 kcal이었다. 실험적으로 얻은 반응차수와 doping 효과로부터 가능한 반응메카니즘을 제안하였다.

The $SnO_2$, Sn-doped $In_2O+3\; and \;Ce-doped\; TiO_2$ films have been prepared by RF sputtering method, and their opto-electrochemical properties were investigated in view of the applicability as counter electrodes in the electrochromic window system. These oxide films could reversibly intercalate $Li^+$ ions owing to the nanocrystalline texture, but remained colorless and transparent. The high transmittance of the lithiated films could be attributed to the prevalence of the $Sn^{4+}/Sn^{2+}\; and\; Ce^{4+}/Ce^{3+}$ redox couples having 5s and 6s character conduction bands, respectively. For the Ce-doped $TiO_2$ film, $(TiO_2)_{1-x}(CeO_2)_x$, an optimized electrochemical reversibility was found in the film with the composition of x = 0.1.

ATO(antimony-doped tin oxide) 투명전도막을 sol-gel dip coating 방법에 의해 $SiO_2$/glass 기판 위에 성공적으로 제조하였다 ATO막의 결정상은 $SnO_2$상임을 확인하였고, 막의 두께는 withdrawal speed를 50 mm/minute로 코팅시 약 100 nm/layer였다. $SiO_2$/glass 기판 위에 코팅한 400 nm두께의 ATO 박막을 질소분위기에서 annealing한 후, 측정한 광 투과율과 전기 저항치는 각각 84%와 $5.0\times 10^{-3}\Omega \textrm{cm}$였다. 이러한 특성은 $SiO_2$막이 Na 이온의 확산을 제어하여 $Na_2SnO_3$ 및 SnO와 같은 불순물의 형성을 억제하고, 막 내부의 Sb의 농도와 $Sb^{3+}$에 대한 $Sb^{5+}$의 비를 증가시키는데 기여했기 때문으로 확인되었다. 또한, $N_2$ annealing은 $Sb^{5+}$뿐만 아니라 $Sn^{4+}$를 환원시킴으로써 전기전도도를 향상시킴을 확인하였다.

Pd-doped SnO2 thin films for hydrogen gas sensing were fabricated by reactive fo magnetron sputtering and were studied on effects of film thickness and Pd doping content. Pd doping caused the optimum sensor operation temperature to reduce down to ~25$0^{\circ}C$ and also enhanced gas sensitivity, compared with undoped SnO2 film. Gas sensitivity depended on the film thickness. The sensitivity increased with decreasing the film thickness, showing maximum sensitivities at the thickness of 730$\AA$ and 300~400$\AA$ for the undoped SnO2 and the Pd-doped SnO2 film, respectively. Further decrease of the film thickness beyond these thickness ranges, however, resulted in the reduction of sensitivity again.

Cu doped $SnO_2$ thick films for gas sensors were fabricated by screen printing method on alumina substrates and annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ in air, respectively. Structural properties of $SnO_2$ by X-ray diffraction showed (110), (101) and (211) dominant tetragonal phase. The effects of catalyst Cu in $SnO_2$-based gas sensors were investigated. Sensitivity of $SnO_2$:Cu sensors to 2,000 ppm $CO_2$ gas and 50 ppm $H_2S$ gas was investigated for various Cu concentration. The highest sensitivity to $CO_2$ gas and $H_2S$ gas of Cu doped $SnO_2$ gas sensors was observed at the 8 wt% and 12 wt% Cu concentration, respectively. The improved sensitivity in the Cu doped $SnO_2$ gas sensors was explained by decrease of electron depletion region in Cu and $SnO_2$ junction, and increase of reactive oxygen and surface area in the $SnO_2$.

CuO doped $WO_3-SnO_2$ thick film gas sensors were fabricated by screen printing method on alumina substrates and heat-treated at $350^{\circ}C$ in air. The effects of mixing ratio of $WO_3$ with $SnO_2$ on the structural and morphological properties of $WO_3-SnO_2$ were investigated X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscope. The structural properties of the $WO_3-SnO_2$:CuO thick film by XRD showed that the monoclinic of $WO_3$ and the tetragonal of $SnO_2$ phase were mixed. Nano CuO was coated on the $WO_3-SnO_2$ surface and then the surface of $WO_3$ was coated with $SnO_2$ particles with $1\sim1.5{\mu}m$ in diameters, as confirmed form the SEM image. The sensitivity of the $WO_3-SnO_2$:CuO sensor to 2000 ppm $CO_2$ gas and 50 ppm $H_2S$ gas for the various ratio of $WO_3$ and $SnO_2$ was investigated. The 4 wt% CuO doped $WO_3-SnO_2$(75:25) tkick films showed the highest sensitivity to $CO_2$ gas and $H_2S$ gas.

A coprecipitation method was used for preparing Ca and Pt doped $SnO_2$ fine powder. Components of the powder were investigated by XPS and SIMS. Crystallite size and specific surface area were investigated by TEM, XRD, and BET analysis. $SnO_2$(Ca)/Pt based thick film devices were prepared by a screen printing technique for methane gas detection. Then sensing characteristics of the devices were investigated. As Ca and Pt added, the crystal growth of $SnO_2$ was suppressed during calcining and sintering, and the sensitivity of $SnO_2$(Ca)/Pt thick film to methane gas was enhanced. For the Pt doped $SnO_2$ fine particle, the thick film device shows sensitivity of about 83% to 2000 ppm methane gas at an operating temperature of >$400^{\circ}C$.
