In this study, an MPB PMNT system containing 0.05 to 0.10 wt.% BaTiO₃ was synthesized using a traditional chemical method and its pyroelectricity was investigated. Pyroelectricity, dielectricity, and ferroelectricity of the synthesized BaTiO₃-PMNT system were analyzed by heat treatment at 1240~1280 ℃ for 4 hours to evaluate its applicability as a pyroelectric sensor. Unlike the simple ABO₃ ferroelectric, the BaTiO₃-doped PMNT system exhibited phase transition characteristics over a wide temperature range typical of complex perovskite structures. Although no dramatic change could be confirmed depending on the amount of BaTiO₃ added, stable pyroelectricity was maintained near room temperature and over a wide temperature range. When the amount of BaTiO₃ added increased from 0.05BaTiO₃-PMNT to 0.10BaTiO₃-PMNT, the electric field slightly increased from 5.00×10³ kV/m to 6.75×10³ kV/m, and the maximum value of remanent polarization slightly increased from 0.223 C/m² to 0.234 C/m². The pyroelectric coefficients of 0.05BaTiO₃-PMNT and 0.10BaTiO₃- PMNT at room temperature were measured to be ~0.0084 C/m²K and ~0.0043 C/m²K, respectively. The relaxor ferroelectric properties of the BaTiO₃-PMNT system were confirmed by analyzing the plot of K_max/K versus (T-T_max)^γ. The BaTiO₃-doped MPB PMNT system showed a distinct pyroelectric performance index at room temperature, and the values were F_v ~ 0.0362 m²/C, F_d ~ 0.575×10^-4 Pa^-1/2.

In this study, we have fabricated the 3 wt% $Li_2CO3$ doped $(Ba,Sr)TiO_3$ thick films on the Ag/Pd printed $Al_2O_3$ substrates for the LTCCs (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics) applications. From the X-ray diffraion analysis, 3 wt% $Li_2CO3$ doped BST thick films on the Ag/Pd printed $Al_2O_3$ substrates, which sintered at 900 $^{\circ}C$ have perovskite structure without any pyro phase. The dielectric properties of 3 wt% $Li_2CO3$ doped BST thick films were measured from 1 kHz to 1 MHz. To investigate the electrical properties of 3 wt% $Li_2CO3$ doped BST thick films, we employed the impedance spectroscopy. The complex impedance of 3 wt% $Li_2CO3$ doped BST thick films were measured from 20 Hz to 1 MHz at the various temperatures.

The purpose of this study was to correlate between photoelectrochemcial hydrogen production rate and electron transfer with various types of metal doped $TiO_2$ nanotubes as photoanodes. In order to fabricate light sensitized photoanode, CdS, $WO_3$, and Pt were doped by electrodeposition method. As the results of experiments, the electron transfer was favorable from higher position to lower position of conduction band (CB). In consequence, the higher hydrogen production rate was as follows, CdS/$TiO_2$ (100 $umol/hr-cm^2$) > $WO_3/TiO_2$ (20 $umol/hr-cm^2$) > Pt/$TiO_2$ (10 $umol/hr-cm^2$). The surface characterizations exhibited that crystal structure, morphological and electrical properties of various metal depoed $TiO_2$ nanotubes by the results of SEM, TEM, XPS, and photocurrent measurements.

Transition metal ions($Ni^{2+}$, $Cr^{3+}$ and $V^{5+}$) doped $TiO_2$ nanostructured powders were synthesized by mechanical alloying(MA) to shift the adsorption threshold into the visible light region. The synthesized powders were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM and BET for structural analysis, UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectrum for the optical study. Also, photocatalytic abilities were evaluated by decomposition of 4-chlorophenol(4CP) under ultraviolet and visible light irradiations. Optical studies showed that the absorption wavelength of transition metal ions doped $TiO_2$ powders moved to visible light range, which was believed to be induced by the energy level change due to the doping. Among the prepared $TiO_2$ powders, $NiO^{2+}$ doped $TiO_2$ powders, showed excellent photooxidative ability in 4CP decomposition.

Investigations of crystal structure and phase transition of $Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ ceramics doped with A-site substitution impurity (La, Nd) or B-site substitution impurity (Sb, Nb) at 2 mol% concentration were carried out. X-ray diffraction patterns of impurities doped $Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ ceramics have been measured at pressures up to ~5 GPa with diamond anvil cell and synchrotron radiation. The patterns were obtained at room temperature using methanol-ethanol mixture as pressure-transmitting media. In order to refine the crystal structure, Rietveld analysis has been performed. The structures of impurities doped $Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ ceramics are tetragonal in space group P4mm at ambient pressure and are transformed into a cubic phase in space group Pm$\bar{3}$m as the pressure increases. In this study, when A-site substitution donor $La^{3+}$ or $Nd^{3+}$ ion was added to $Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ ceramics, the phase transition phenomena showed up at the pressure of 2.5~4.6 GPa, but when B-site substitution donor $Nb^{5+}$ or $Sb^{5+}$ ion was added to it, the phase transition appeared at relatively lower pressure of 1.7~2.6 GPa.

Effects of PbTiO3 addition on dielectric properties and extent of PbO loss in Nd-doped Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 system were investigated. As the proportion of dopping increased, the phase transition temperature shifted to low region, and the dielectric constant at room temperature decreased rapidly. But as the proportion of PbTiO3 increased, the phase transition temperature shifted to high retion, and the dielectric constant at room temperature increased. The substitution of Nd3+ for Pb2+ decreased the amount of PbO evaporation, therefore the sample sintered well in case of only 1 mole% adding excess PbO.

Ceramic membrane consisting of an ${\alpha}-Al_{2}O_{3}$ support and Fe doped $TiO_{2}$ top layer was prepared by the sol-gel method. The supported Fe doped $TiO_{2}$ top layer was made by dip coating the support in a mixed sol. The microstructure of the composite membranes was studied by SEM after calcination at $550~850^{\circ}C$. After sintering at $650^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr., the average particle diameter of the Fe doped $TiO_{2}$ top layer was ~40 nm. The supported Fe doped $TiO_{2}$ composite membranes exhibited much higher heat resistance than the $TiO_{2}$ membrane. The Fe doped $TiO_{2}$ composite membrane retained a crack-free microstructure and narrow particle size distribution even after calcination up to $650^{\circ}C$.

[ $SrTiO_3:Al,Pr$ ] red phosphors doped with Y and Er were synthesized by solid state reaction method. The luminescence properties of $SrTiO_3:Al,Pr$ phosphors before and after doping were examined by photoluminescence. Efforts were paid to elucidate the cause of the increase of green luminescence in $(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr,Er\;and\;(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors. The enhanced green luminescence was interpreted by the energy transfer between $Er^{3+}\;and\;Pr^{3+}$ ions, and the change of bandgap in the $(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr$ phosphors.

$Fe_xTi_{l-x}O_2$ films (x=0.07 and 0.16) were grown by oxygen-plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy on rutile $TiO_2$(110). The same growth conditions were applied for both films in order to determine surface characteristics of grown films as a function of Fe composition. The films were characterized by several surface analysis techniques. The oxidation states of Ti and Fe in $Fe_xTi_{l-x}O_2$ films were found to be +4 and a mixture of +2 and +3, respectively. More $Fe^{3+}$ species exist in higher Fe doped film of $Fe_{0.16}Ti_{0.84}O_2$. The morphology of $Fe_{0.07}Ti_{0.93}O_2$ film shows tall rectangular and cylinderical islands growth on flat substrate-like surface. On the other hand, $Fe_{0.16}Ti_{0.84}O_2$ film consists of round shaped small islands showing somewhat rougher surface compared to the surface of $Fe_{0.16}Ti_{0.84}O_2$ film.

The Nb doped BaTiO3 was synthesized by coprecipitation method using H2O2 media in region from pH 8 to pH 11. The powder prepared by using this method was crystallized at about 20$0^{\circ}C$ and average particle size was controlled by heat treatment. Because of preparation having fine particle and relatively narrow particle size distribution, high performance PTC device was made of these precipitated powders.
