We investigated the effects of impurity doping on the electrical transport and magnetic properties of TEX>$(Ru, Sn)(Sr, La)<_2$$EuCeCu_2$$O_{z}$ samples. We found that Sn substitution fur Ru causes a significant decrease of the volume fraction of ferromagnetic phase, as well as a decrease of the temperature where the ferromagnetic component is observed. La substitution for Sr leads to an increase of the magnetic ordering temperature with a moderate change of ferromagnetic component. The experimental results are discussed in conjunction with the structural data, transport properties and a possible change of oxygen content.

고전압 용 양극산화물 $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$는 고온에서 합성 시, 입자 내에 산소결함에 의한 불순물상을 만들게 된다. 불순물상은 불완전한 스피넬 구조를 형성하며 리튬이온의 삽입$\cdot$탈리를 방해하여 전극의 성능을 감소시킨다. 본 연구에서는 고온 열처리 시 생성되는 이러한 불순물상의 거동을 파악하기 위해 크롬을 치환한 $LiNi_{0.5-x}Mn_{1.5}Cr_xO_4(0{\leq}x{\leq}0.05)$를 졸$\cdot$겔법을 이용하여 합성하여 고온 열분석을 실시하였다. 열분석 결과 크롬이 치환되지 않은 양극활물질은 산소결함에 의한 $2\%$의 무게 감소를 보였으나, 크롬이 치환된 경우 무게 감소분이 줄어들어 불순물 생성이 억제됨을 알 수 있었다. XRD 분석에서도 크롬이 치환된 경우 불순물 상이 억제됨을 나타내었으며 불순물상의 감소로 인해 크롬을 첨가한 양극활물질 $LiNi_{0.5-x}Mn_{1.5}Cr_xO_4$를 사용한 경우 충·방전 실험 시 가역 용량과 싸이클 안정성이 향상됨을 볼 수 있었다.

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.

Distribution of Pr ions between Y- and Ba-site of the $Y(Ba_{1-Xn}Pr_{Xn})_2Cu_3O_y$ ($0{\leq}Xn{\leq}{0.3}$, Xn : nominal composition) material prepared by the solid state reaction method was studied. Although the samples have narrow superconducting transition, tiny peaks of $Y_2BaCuO_5$ impurity phase are included in the x-ray diffraction patterns suggesting that some of the Pr ions are entered into the Y-site. The distribution of Pr ions between Y- and Ba-site was determined by measuring the mass fraction of YBCO and $Y_2BaCuO_5$ phase for each sample through the Rietveld analysis of the x-ray diffraction data. About 60 % of Pr ions occupy the Y-site regardless of the Pr content. Various superconducting parameters such as the oxygen content and the hole concentration etc. are compared before and after the impurity correction.

The electrical conductivity of $(M_2O_3)_x (BaTiO_3)_{1-x}$ has been measured over the temperature range of 30 to 27$0^{\circ}C$. The substitution of rare earth oxide such as $La_2O_3$, $Nd_2O_3$, or $Dy_2O_3$ can be represented by $M_2O_3$. The additional mole fraction of the rare earth oxide is ranged over 0.0015 to 0.0030. The electrical conductivity exhibits an anomalous decrease near the tetragonal to cubic transition about 12$0^{\circ}C$. The decrease in the electrical conductivity is observed at the higher impurity concentrations owing to space charge layer. The increase in the electrical conductivity is observed as the impurity ion is varied from $La^{+3}$$Nd^{+3}$ to $Dy^{+3}$, due to overlap of 4f electrons of the inner shell.

We have studied the anisotropy of the London penetration depth of carbon doped $MgB_2$ single crystals, which was obtained from reversible magnetization measurements with the magnetic field both parallel and perpendicular to the c-axis. Similar to the pure $MgB_2$, the anisotropy of the upper critical field ${\gamma}_H$ decrease with temperature while the anisotropy of the London penetration depth ${\gamma}_{\lambda}$ slowly increases with temperature. However, the temperature dependence of ${\gamma}_H$ is drastically reduced and the value of ${\gamma}_{\lambda}$ becomes nearly ~1 as C is introduced. These results indicate that C substitution increases impurity scattering mainly in the $\sigma$ bands. The temperature dependence of the anisotropies agree well with the theoretical predictions with impurity scattering.

흘란다이트 터널 구조내의 A자리 양이온인 $Ba^{2+}$ 이온을 $K^{+ }$ 이온이 치환하면서 결정의 구조에 어떠한 변화가 있는지 알아보기 위해 K-Ba 전구간 완전고용체로 치환된 7개의 합성 흘란다이트형 광물($K_{2x}$ $Ba_{1}$ -x/$Cr_2$$Ti_{6}$ $O_{16}$ , x=0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.0)에 대하여 X선 회절분석과 리트벨트 구조분석법을 실시하였다. 리트벨트 계산 결과, 구조의 정밀도를 나타내는 R 지수값을 보면$ R_{exp}$에 대한 $R_{wp}$ 값($R_{wp}$ /$R_{exp}$ )은 15.77%/20.90%~14.74%/l9.37%의 범위를 보여주며, $R_{B}$ 값은 6.45~8.97%, S (GofF)값은 1.45~l.63으로 각각 계산되었다. 합성 홀란다이트는 K-Ba 전구간에서 Ba의 함량에 관계없이 모두 공간군 14/m을 가지며, 단위포의 크기는 a=10.1194(2) ~ 10.0599(2)$\AA$, c=2.9572(6)~2.9512(7)$\AA$, V=302.75~298.66$\AA^{3}$의 범위를 보여주며, K 함량이 50% 이상에서는 금홍석이 부산물로 합성되었다. 그 결과 A자리의 Ba와 K의 치환관계에서는 비록 단위포의 크기에 일정한 변화를 보여주었으나 구조적 변이에 영향을 주기에는 충분치 않은 것으로 밝혀졌다. 따라서 정방정계에서 대칭성이 낮은 단사정계로의 구조적 변이는 A자리에 대한 K-Ba 치환보다는 다른 양이온의 치환이나 B자리의 치환 등 다른 요인에 의할 것으로 생각된다.다.

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.

This study was aimed to study the effect of Zn content on the hyperfine parameters and the structural variation of $Ni_{1-x}Zn_xFe_2O_4$ for x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8. To achieve this, a sol-gel route was used for the preparation of samples and the obtained ferrites were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. The formation of spinel phase without any impurity peak was identified by X-ray diffraction of all the samples. Moreover, the estimated crystallite size by X-ray line broadening indicates a decrease with increasing Zn content. This result was in agreement with the scanning electron microscopy result, indicating the reduction in grain growth with further zinc substitution. The room-temperature $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra show that the hyperfine fields at both the A and B sites decreased with increasing Zn content; however, the rate of reduction is not the same for different sites. Moreover, the best fit parameter showed that the quadrupole splitting values of B site increased from the pure nickel ferrite to the sample with x = 0.8.
