The effects of co-doping with complex dopants of softeners, $La^{+3}$ and/or $Nb^{+5}$, and a hardener, $Fe^{+3}$, on the microstructural and piezoelectric properties of PZT ceramics with a composition of a rhombohedral-tetragonal morphotropic phase boundary, $PbZr_{0.53}Ti_{0.47}O_3$, were investigated. Unlike single-element doping, the complex doping of both the softener and hardener ions led to various compensation effects for the piezoelectric properties of the PZT ceramics. For 0.5 wt.% $La_2O_3$ softener and/or 0.5 wt.% $Nb_2O_5$ doped compositions, there were apparent hardener doping (compensation) effects for an addition of over 1.0 wt.% $Fe_2O_3$. For the $La_2O_3$ and/or $Nb_2O_5$ doped composition, the co-dopant $Fe_2O_3$ addition led to lower kp and $\varepsilon$r, and increased $Q_m$ values. The prepared PZT ceramics modified with complex soft dopants, $La^{+3}$ and $Nb^+$, as well as a hard dopant, $Fe^{+3}$, showed that the piezoelectric properties were stable with the compositional variations, which made it possible to establish piezoelectric performances with higher reliability and reproducibility. The most improved piezoelectric properties of enhanced $Q_m$ with $\varepsilon_r$ remaining higher $k_p$, were obtained in the PZT composition complexly doped with $La^{+3}$ and $Fe^{+3}$. From the results obtained in this study, the properties of compositionally modified PZT ceramics can also be tailored over a wider range by changing the dopant compositions to meet the specific requirements for underwater or other applications.

Paraelectric ZrTiO4 thin films were synthesized on a Si(100) substrate using DC magnetron reactive sputtering. Films deposited above-400$^{\circ}C$ exhibited crystalline characteristics. The dielectric constants ($\varepsilon$) and dielectric losses (tan$\delta$) of as-deposited and annealed films were measured in the 1 MHz range using a Pt upper electrode and a phosphorous-doped si bottom electrode. Preliminary data showed that as the deposition temperature increased, the dielectric losses decreased while the dielectric constants did not change significantly. similar trends for dielectric losses were observed when the as-deposited samples were annealed at 800$^{\circ}C$. The reduction of dielectric losses at high-deposition temperatures and post annealing correlated well with the x-ray diffraction peak widths.

Proten-conductive $SrZr_{0.95} Y_{0.05} O_{2.975}$ powder was prepared by citrate gel method its characteristics and sinterability were investigated. Amorphous gel could be obtained from a citric acid solution that $SrCO_3$ and metal nitrates were dissolved. The initial decomposition of the gel proceeded up to $250^{\circ}C$, followed by combustion of its decomposition products in the temperature range from $250^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$. A well-crystallized perovskite phase with a stoichiometric composition after calcination at $1000^{\circ}C$. Sintering green compacts of this powder for 6 h showed a considerable densification to start at $1200^{\circ}C$ and resulted in 86.8% and 96.5% relative densities at $1400^{\circ}C$ and $1600^{\circ}C$, respectively. Whereas, the powder compacts prepared by solid state reaction had much lower relative densities, 73% at $1400^{\circ}C$ and 92% at $1600^{\circ}C$.

$N_2O$ 촉매 분해 반응을 위한 $Co_3O_4$ 촉매는 공침법을 이용하여 제조하였으며, 조촉매로서 Ce 및 Zr의 양을 (Ce 또는 Zr)/Co = 0.05의 몰비로 고정하여 제조하였다. 또한 K가 촉매에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 1 wt%의 $K_2CO_3$를 함침하여 촉매를 제조하였다. 제조된 촉매의 특성은 BET, SEM, XRD, $H_2-TPR$, XPS를 통해 분석하였다. $Co_3O_4$ 촉매는 스피넬 결정상을 나타냈으며, 조촉매의 첨가는 입자 크기와 결정 크기를 감소시켜 비표면적을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. K의 도핑은 촉매 활성 물질인 Co의 활성 종인 $Co^{2+}$의 농도를 증가시켜 촉매 활성을 향상시키는 것으로 확인되었다. $N_2O$ 분해 반응 테스트는 $GHSV=45,000h^{-1}$, $250{\sim}375^{\circ}C$에서 수행되었으며 $Co_3O_4$ 촉매에 조촉매를 첨가하였을 때도 반응성이 증가하였지만, K를 함침하면 활성이 더욱 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. K의 도핑이 활성 종인 $Co^{2+}$의 농도를 증가시키며, 환원온도를 낮춰 주어 활성에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 확인하였다.

The doped-ceria is a strong candidate material for an intermediate temperature SOFC. However, the mechanical strength and the magnitude of electrical conductivity need to be increased at low sintering temperature. In this study, to improve both properties, $1at\% $ of Mg, Ca, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ga, and Zr were added to the GDC20 ($20at\%$ Gd-doped Ceria) and sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$ that is $250^{\circ}C$ lower than $1600^{\circ}C$. With addition, the relative density of the sintered sample increased. Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ga doped-GDC20 showed high relative density over $92\%$. Among them, Ga doped-GDC20 showed the most improved sinterability. The conductivity of doped­GDC20 increased by $\~10$ times at $300\~700^{\circ}C$.

Simulated debris was synthesized using UO₂, Zr, and stainless steel and a heat treatment method under inert or oxidizing conditions. The primary U solid phase of the debris synthesized at 1473 K under inert conditions was UO₂, whereas a (U, Zr)O₂ solid solution formed at 1873 K. Under oxidizing conditions, a mixture of U₃O₈ and (Fe, Cr)UO₄ phases formed at 1473 K, whereas a (U, Zr)O_2+x solid solution formed at 1873 K. The leaching behavior of the fission products from the simulated debris was evaluated using two methods: the irradiation method, for which fission products were produced via neutron irradiation, and the doping method, for which trace amounts of non-radioactive elements were doped into the debris. The dissolution behavior of U depended on the properties of the debris and aqueous solution for immersion. Cs, Sr, and Ba leached out regardless of the primary solid phases. The leaching of high-valence Eu and Ru ions was suppressed, possibly owing to their solid-solution reaction with or incorporation into the uranium compounds of the simulated debris.

The 2, 4, 6 and 8mol% Y2O3 doped-ZrO2 powders (20 kinds) with the addedtion of Al2O3 upto 8wt% were prepared by coprecipitation method using the zirconium oxyacetate, yttrium chloride and aluminum nitrate as starting materials. The coprecipitated powders were characterized by XRD, TG-DTA, FT-IR and SEM. The sintering properties of zirconia-alumina composites prepared by 2YSZ and 8YSZ powders containing various Al2O3 contents were also investigated. With increasing the yttria stabilizer contents, the amount of exothermic heat for zirconia crystallization decreased. And it was confirmed that the crystallizing temperature of coprecipitated zirconia powders increased and the crystallization process occurred in a wide temperature range, as Al2O3 content increased in 8YSZ.

매체 순환식 수소제조공정은 직접 고순도의 수소를 생산하는 동시에 $CO_2$ 포집 비용을 최소화할 수 있는 고효율/친환경적인 공정이다. 본 공정은 레독스 반응을 통하여 산소를 전달하고 이때 철 산화물계 산소전달입자를 이용하게 된다. 구리 산화물이 첨가된 철-구리 산화물계 산소전달입자는 반응성 향상이 보고되어 왔으나 철 산화물과 구리 산화물 간 상호작용에 대한 이해가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 여러 기기 분석법(SEM/EDX, XRD, BET, TPR, XPS, TGA)을 통하여 철-구리 산화물계 산소전달입자의 레독스 반응성 향상을 지배하는 주요인을 연구하였다. 첨가된 구리 산화물은 철 산화물 성장 억제제 역할 뿐만 아니라 화학적 환경 변화를 일으키는 화학적 촉매제(chemical promoter) 역할도 하는 것이 발견되었다. 철-구리 산화물계 산소전달입자의 우수한 환원 반응성은 구리 산화물의 도입으로 $Fe^{2+}$ 농도 증가 및 표면 특성 변화 때문이며, 우수한 물분해 특성은 산화 과정에서 일어나는 철 산화물의 응집을 구리 산화물이 억제시킨 것으로 판단되었다.

In this study, PZT solutions added impurities of Yttrium acetate were prepared by sol-gel processing and were deposited on Pt/ $SiO_{2}$/Si substrates at 5000 rpm for 20 sec. using spin-coating method. Coated films were annealed at 700-750.deg. C for 30 min. using conventional furnace method. Variations of the crystallographic structure and microstructure of PZT thin films with adding impurities were observed using XRD and SEM, and the electrical properties, such as relative permittivity, tan .delta., hysteresis curves and leakage currents, were measured. As the yttrium contents were increased, the remanent polarization and coercive field were decreased. Variations of remanent polarizations and coercive fields of pure and yttrium doped specimens according to polarization reversal cycles were observed using hysteresis measurement. PZT thin films added $Y^{3+}$ ions were completely crystallized at 750.deg. C. $Y^{3+}$ ions, as donor impurity, substituted Pb.sup 2+/ ions located at A-site of perovskite structure. By substitution of $Y^{3+}$ ions, leakage currents became less by decreasing the space charges. Degradation of remanent polarizations of Yttrium added specimens after fatigue was not observed and coercive fields increased more than those of pure PZT thin films.
