The electro-magnetic properties of the Mn-Zn ferrite single crystal with small variation of Fe2O3 concentration at the high permeability composition, 53mol% Fe2O3-28.5mol% MnO-18.5mol% ZnO, have been studied for the VCR magnetic head application. With the increase of the Fe2O3 concentration, the Fe2+ concentration increased, the specific resistivity decreased, the secondary maximum permeability shifted to the lower temperature, and the initial permeability decreased. It was concluded that the small variation of $\pm$0.5mol% Fe2O3 concentration greatly affected the electro-magnetic properties of Mn-Zn ferrite single crystals. At the composition of 53mol% Fe2O3, the initial permeability was comparatively high (650 at 5MHz) and its temperature dependence was small.

Recently, there has been substantial interest in flexible and wearable devices whose properties and performances are close to conventional devices on hard substrates. Despite the advancement on flexible devices with organic semiconductors or carbon nanotube films, their performances are limited by the carrier scattering at the molecular to molecular or nanotube-to-nanotube junctions. Here in this study, we demonstrate on the vertical semiconductor crystal array embedded in flexible polymer matrix. Such structures can relieve the strain effectively, thereby accommodating large flexural deformation. To achieve such structure, we first established a low-temperature solution-phase synthesis of single crystalline 3D architectures consisting of epitaxially grown ZnO constituent crystals by position and growth direction controlled growth strategy. The ZnO vertical crystal array was integrated into a piece of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate, which was then mechanically detached from the hard substrate to achieve the freestanding ZnO-polymer composite. In addition, the characteristics of transferred ZnO were confirmed by additional structural and photoluminescent measurements. The ZnO vertical crystal array embedded in PDMS was further employed as pressure sensor that exhibited an active response to the external pressure, by piezoelectric effect of ZnO crystal.

In order to prepare ferroxplana ZnY $(Ba_2Zn_2Fe_{12}O_{22})$, which would be useful for GHz-band communication, the optimum coprecipitation condition of 1 $BaCl_{2-1} Zn(NO_3)_2-6FeCl_3$ in $NaOH-Na_2CO_3$ solution was investigated by use of a new apparatus invented in our laboratory. By freeze-drying and calcining the coprecitated hydroxide-carbonate, the very reactive powder was obtained, from which the synthesis process of ZnY and the other related crystals were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction. In results, it was found that the reactive powder containing ZnY as the major component can be prepared by this method, which may be used in manufacturing the various magnetic cores for the microwave communication.

The important factors in sensors are sensitivity, selectivity, and response time. Oxide semiconductors are high sensitivity, fast response and the advantage of miniaturization. Zn-doped $SnO_2$ materials have been synthesized in order to improve the selectivity of the sensor. ZnO/$SnO_2$ crystals were prepared by a simple hydrothermal process and ultrasound pretreated hydrothermal process. ZnO/$SnO_2$ urchins were fabricated in the precursor solution with [$Zn^{2+}$]:[$Sn^{4+}$] ratio of 1:5 and rod structures were fabricated ratio of 1:1 and 1:3. Surface area ratio was increased by increasing the ratio of [$Sn^{4+}$]. The sensitivity of sensors were highest at the [$Zn^{2+}$]:[$Sn^{4+}$] ratio of 1:5 in ethanol, acetaldehyde, toluene, and nitric oxide.

Zinc crystals of ZnO and SiO₂ in glaze raw materials, developed according to composition and firing requirements, are preferred because of their high decorative properties. However, most zinc crystal glazes have a high firing temperature and a narrow firing temperature range, making it difficult to use them as commercial glazes in ceramics. Therefore, in this study, it was expected that the firing temperature of a typical zinc crystal glaze could be lowered to below 1270℃ by using the eutectic effect through mixing frit, the main raw material used in manufacturing zinc crystal glaze. As a result, not only was the formation temperature of zinc crystals lower in the mixed frit glaze, but also the firing temperature range was widened to 1230~1270℃, making it possible to develop a glaze that produces crystals stably. The firing temperature was lowered to 1230~1250℃ and the holding temperature during cooling was lowered to about 950℃, resulting in the development of an economically effective glaze. When using a combination of frit, it has been shown that the holding temperature during cooling affects the recrystallization of zinc crystals depending on the composition of the glaze, and the crystal structure can be adjusted at this time. Additionally, the amount and shape of crystals can be controlled by using a nucleating agent.

In this studies resistivity thermal expansion and microstructure of the Forsterite Porcelain as a high frequency insulator were investigated. The body containing Zn-glass shows higher resistivity than any other body. The bodies containing K, Ba, Cd-glass respectively consist of fine crystals of mosaic type. The bodies containing Bi, Zn, Zr-glass repectively included more large crystals because of the grain growth and coherence of fine particles In the 4 series Forsterite containing excess MgO 0-6% the thermal coefficients of the bodies increased with the increasing of excess MgO and the bodies have conspicuously high thermal expansion coefficients when 15% excess $BaCO_3$ was added to. The resistivities of additive bodies of $BaCO_3$ 0, 5, 10% in Forsterite containg excess MgO 2% are higher than any other that of composition. Bacause the growing of Forsterite crystals was restrained with the increasing of excess MgO $BaCO_3$ their grain size became fine and their grain boundaries were decomposed and also the glass phase having high refractive inder was increased. The higher the firing temperature increased the more the process of crystal growing was progressed.

The zinc oxide(ZnO) nanowires were deposited on Si(001) substrates by thermal chemical vapour deposition without any catalysts. SEM data suggested that the grown nanostructures were the well-aligned ZnO single crystals with preferential orientation. Back-gate ZnO nanowire field effect transistors(FET) were successfully fabricated using a photolithography process. The fabricated nanowire FET exhibits good contact between the ZnO nonowire and Au metal electrodes. Based on I-V characteristics it was found out that the ZnO nanowire revealed a characteristic of n-type field effect transistor. The drain current increases with increasing drain voltage, and the slopes of the $I_{ds}-V_{ds}$ curves are dependent on the gate voltage.

$Zn_2TiO_4$, which is a progenitor of zinc crystallization, plays a significant role in controlling the crystallization of willemite ($Zn_2SiO_4$) in forming glaze at low temperatures. Thus, $Zn_2TiO_4$ was used to formulate stable willemite and to gain structural control. When synthesized 15 wt% of $Zn_2TiO_4$ is added to engobe and then applied, it can manipulate its crystallization and location. Additionally, when colorant is added to $Zn_2TiO_4$ and then applied to engobe, the mixture's colorant effect can be shown at crystallization. Certain characteristics of synthesized $Zn_2TiO_4$ enable various engobes to be applied to clay bodies. With a single glazing, the crystallization, location, and color of the crystals can be discretionarily regulated.

CaO and ZnO were added to Al2O3-SiO2 binary system respectively as flux, then ZrO2 and TiO2 were applied as nucleating agent to these CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 and ZnO-Al2O3-SiO2 ternary system glass. The transparency could not be kept in CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 system glass, whereas the transparent glass-ceramics were prepared in ZnO-Al2O3-SiO2 system glass containing ZrO2 as the nucleating agent. At this time the optimum heating temperatures for the nucleation and the crystal growth were 78$0^{\circ}C$ and 97$0^{\circ}C$. The sizes of the precipitated crystals in the transparent glass-ceramics were below 0.1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and their light transmissibilities were more than 80%.
