Tobacco smoke emitted during smoking is divided into a main-stream and side-stream smoke. Most of the tobacco smoke that spreads to a room while smoking is a side-stream one. The side-stream tobacco smoke is two to three times more harmful than that of the main-stream tobacco smoke. In this study, the removal efficiency of CO, $H_2S$, $NH_3$ and HCHO in a side-stream tobacco smoke using the doping component of $TiO_2$ photocatalysts was confirmed. As a result, CO was removed up to 78.37%, which indicated that the $TiO_2$ photocatalytic process is effective for CO removal. Also, the removal efficiencies of CO, $H_2S$ and HCHO were greatly affected by the amount of doped O and Si components of the $TiO_2$ photocatalyst. In conclusion, the more doped O and Si components had, the higher removal efficiencies of harmful substances were achieved.

The oxidation reaction of CO on the catalysts 4 mol%, 8 mol%, and 12 mol% Cd-doped ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ is individually investigated. Regardless of Cd doping level, over-all reaction order for the oxidation of CO is 1.5; the first order with respect to CO and the one-half order with respect to $O_2$. Over the temperature range of 350∼$460^{\circ}C$, the activation energy for CO oxidation is 10.10∼11.30Kcal/mol. From the agreement between the kinetic data and conductivity measurements, the reaction mechanism is suggested. Especially from the effect of Cd doping, the fact that catalytic activity of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ is due to the excitation of electrons which are traped on oxygen vacancy is found, and the adsorption sites for reactant molecules are found.

We investigated the effects of Co doping on the NO gas sensing characteristics of ZnO-carbon nanotube (ZnO-CNT) layered composites fabricated by coaxial coating of single-walled CNTs with ZnO using pulsed laser deposition. Structural examinations clearly confirmed a distinct nanostructure of the CNTs coated with ZnO nanoparticles of an average diameter as small as 10 nm and showed little influence of doping 1 at.% Co into ZnO on the morphology of the ZnO-CNT composites. It was found from the gas sensing measurements that 1 at.% Co doping into ZnO gave rise to a significant improvement in the response of the ZnO-CNT composite sensor to NO gas exposure. In particular, the Co-doped ZnO-CNT composite sensor shows a highly sensitive and fast response to NO gas at relatively low temperatures and even at low NO concentrations. The observed significant improvement of the NO gas sensing properties is attributed to an increase in the specific surface area and the role as a catalyst of the doped Co elements. These results suggest that Co-doped ZnOCNT composites are suitable for use as practical high-performance NO gas sensors.

A visible light responsive N, Mo co-doped $TiO_2$ were prepared by sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction, TEM, $N_2$ adsorption, UV-vis spectroscopy, photoluminescence, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to characterize the prepared $TiO_2$ samples. Doping restrained the phase transformation from anatase to rutile and reduced the particle sizes. The band gap was much narrowed after N, Mo co-doping. The photocatalytic activities were tested in the degradation of an aqueous solution of a reactive dyestuff, methylene blue, under visible light. The photocatalytic activities of doped $TiO_2$ were much higher than that of neat $TiO_2$. The photocatalytic stability of N, Mo co-doped $TiO_2$ was much better than that of N doped $TiO_2$.

Nd and Ti co-doped bismuth ferrite $(Bi_{1-x}Nd_x)(Fe_{1-y}Ti_y)O_3$ (x, y = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2) ceramics and thin films were synthesized through the conventional mixed-oxide process and pulsed laser deposition (PLD), respectively. Nd and Ti co-doping effect was examined with emphasis on how these impurities affect phase formation behavior as there could be the improvement in leakage current problems often associated with multiferroic $BiFeO_3$ (BFO) thin films. The lattice constants of BFO ceramics decreased with Nd doping concentration up to 10mol%, while they further decreased with Nd and Ti co-doping to about 20%. BFO thin films obtained by the PLD process revealed random polycrystalline structure. Similar to bulk BFO ceramic, Nd and Ti co-doping effectively suppressed the formation of unwanted secondary phase and thus stabilized the perovskite phase in BFO thin films.

Blue phosphor calcium aluminate, $CaAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+}$ co-doped with $Nd^{3+}$ was prepared by solid state synthesis method. Phosphor materials with 1 mol% $Eu^{2+}$ and varying compositions of $Nd^{3+}$ show high brightness and long persistent luminescence. The synthesized phosphor materials were investigated by powder x-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, TEM, photoluminescence excitation and emission studies. Broad band UV excited luminescence of the $CaAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+}:Nd^{3+}$ was observed in the blue region (${\lambda}_{max}=440\;nm$) due to transitions from the $4f^65d^1$ to the $4f^7$ configuration of the $Eu^{2+}$ ion. $Nd^{3+}$ ion doping in the phosphor results in long afterglow phosphorescence when the excitation light is cut off.

In this study, we investigated that the resistance switching characteristics of Nb-doped HfO2 films with increasing Nb doping concentration. The Nb-doped HfO2 based ReRAM devices with a TiN/Nb-doped HfO2/Pt/Ti/SiO2 were fabricated on Si substrates. The Nb-doped HfO2 films were deposited by reactive dc magnetron co-sputtering at $300^{\circ}C$ and oxygen partial ratio of 60% (Ar: 16sccm, O2: 24sccm). Microstructure of Nb-doped HfO2 films and atomic concentration were investigated by XRD, TEM, and XPS, respectively. The Nb-doped HfO2 films showed set/reset resistance switching behavior at various Nb doping concentrations. The process voltage of forming/set is decreased and whereas the initial current level is increased in doped HfO2 films. However, the switching properties of Nb-doped HfO2 were changed above the specific doping concentration of Nb. The change of resistance switching behavior depending on doping concentration was discussed in terms of concentration of non-lattice oxygen and micro-structure of Nb-doped HfO2.

II-Ⅵ족 반도체 중에서 넓은 밴드갭을 가지는 ZnO에 Mn 이온을 doping할 경우 Tc가 상온보다 높을 것이라는 이론적 계산이 2000년 Science에 발표되었다. 이후 ZnO에 전이금속 이온을 doping하여 상온에서도 강자성을 나타내는 자성 반도체 (DMS)를 만들기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. Co-doped ZnO 박막은 PLD로 증착하였을 경우 Tc가 상온보다 높으나 재현성이 낮은 것으로 알려져 있었다. 그러나 최근 sol-gel 방법을 이용하여 Co-doped ZnO 박막을 제조하면 강자기 특성의 재현성을 높일 수 있다는 결과가 보고되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 sol-gel 방법을 사용하여 여러 조성의 Co-doped ZnO 박막을 합성한 후 이들의 자성 특성을 검토하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 Co-doped ZnO 박막에서 강자성 발현의 근원을 규명하고자 (ⅰ) 조성에 따른 Co-doped ZnO의 Raman peak과 EXAFS peak의 변화를 측정하여 구조적 특성과 ZnO 내에서의 Co 이온의 상태를 분석하였으며, (ⅱ) Hall 효과 실험으로 carrier density를 측정함으로써 Fermi 준위에서의 파수 벡터의 크기를 산출하고자 하였다.

투명전도 산화막 재료로 널리 사용되고 있는 ITO는 전기적 및 광학적 특성이 우수한 장점이 있으나, ITO의 주 재료인 인듐은 매장량이 적어서 가격이 고가인 단점이 있어 대체 재료의 개발이 시급한 상황이다. ITO 대체 TCO로 가장 유력한 후보인 Al doped ZnO(AZO)는 가시광을 투과하는 성질을 가지고 있고, 저온 공정이 가능하다는 장점뿐만 아니라 수소 분위기의 안정성 및 가격이 싸다는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 양이온 금속원소(Al)과 음이온 할로겐 원소(F) 및 수소(H)를 co-doping한 ZnO 박막을 rf 마그네트론 스퍼터를 이용하여 증착한 뒤 도핑량과 진공중에서의 열처리에 따른 전기적 및 광학적 특성에 대해 고찰하였다. Al과 H를 co-doping한 ZnO의 박막의 경우 Al의 농도가 낮은 TCO박막이 전기적 특서에서 더 큰 향상을 보였으며, 동일한 F 함량에서는 H 함량이 늘어날수록 캐리어의 증가해 TCO박막의 전기적 특성이 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 진공중의 열처리에 따른 F와 H의 거동은 반대로 나타났다. 이 연구를 통해서 $36.2cm^2$/Vs의 높은 홀 이동도와 $2.9{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$의 낮은 비저항을 가지는 ZnO계 박막의 제조가 가능하였다.
