초록

The microstructure and electrical properties of Zn-Pr-Co-Cr-Tb oxide-based varistors were investigated for different $Tb_4O_7$ amounts. As the $Tb_4O_7$ amount increased, the average grain size decreased from 7.7 to $4.8{\mu}m$ and the sintered density increased from 5.73 to $5.84g/cm^3$. As the $Tb_4O_7$ amount increased, the varistor voltage increased from 280.9 to 715.8V/mm and the nonlinear coefficient increased from 26.4 to 44.4. It is assumed that these varistors can be applied for high power with compact size.
