This study describes the doping effect of $Yb_2O_3$ on microstructure, electrical and dielectric properties of $ZnO-V_2O_5-MnO_2-Nb_2O_5$ (ZVMN) ceramic semiconductors sintered at a temperature as low as $900^{\circ}C$. As the doping content of $Yb_2O_3$ increases, the ceramic density slightly increases from 5.50 to $5.54g/cm^3$; also, the average ZnO grain size is in the range of $5.3-5.6{\mu}m$. The switching voltage increases from 4,874 to 5,494 V/cm when the doping content of $Yb_2O_3$ is less than 0.1 mol%, whereas further doping decreases this value. The ZVMN ceramic semiconductors doped with 0.1 mol% $Yb_2O_3$ reveal an excellent nonohmic coefficient as high as 70. The donor density of ZnO gain increases in the range of $2.46-7.41{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3}$ with increasing doping content of $Yb_2O_3$ and the potential barrier height and surface state density at the grain boundaries exhibits a maximum value (1.25 eV) at 0.1 mol%. The dielectric constant (at 1 kHz) decreases from 592.7 to 501.4 until the doping content of $Yb_2O_3$ reaches 0.1 mol%, whereas further doping increases it. The value of $tan{\delta}$ increases from 0.209 to 0.268 with the doping content of $Yb_2O_3$.

The synthesis of SrTiO3 powders having high purity and homogeneous submicron particle size was attempted by the oxalate method. The microstructure and dielectric properties of SrTiO3 based boundary layer capacitor (BLC) were investigated. Strontium titanyl oxalate[SrTiO(C2O4)2.4H2O] was prepared from the mixing solution of (Sr, Ti) using oxalic acid(H2C2O4) as a precipitating agent at 8$0^{\circ}C$. The crystalline SrTiO3 powder was obtained by thermal decomposition of the precipitate above $600^{\circ}C$. The crystalline SrTiO3 powder containing Nb2O5 as a dopant, TiO2 and SiO2 as additives was sintered at 1360~144$0^{\circ}C$ in the reducing atmosphere to get semiconductive SrTiO3. Insulating material containing PbO-Bi2O3-B2O3 frit was printed on the sintered semiconductive SrTiO3 and fired at 120$0^{\circ}C$ for 2h to get the grain boundary diffusion.

ZrO2 fibers were fabricated by means of the Sol-Gel process using Zr(O-nC3H7)4-H2O-C2H5OH-HNO3 solution as a starting material. The optimum experimental parameters such as molar ratio of starting materials, concentration, temperature, viscosity, the amounts of stabilizer and the pH of solution were determined. The experimentally determined optimum variables which produce good ZrO2 fibers were used to manufacture the Y2O3-and CaO-ZrO2 fibers. The amounts of Y2O3 and CaO were varied within the range from 1.5~5 mol% and 3~15 mol% respectively. The phase transformation and microstructural evolution of the fabricated ZrO2 gel fibers were investigated after heat treatments up to 120$0^{\circ}C$ by X-ray diffraction, Raman microprobe spectroscopy, SEM, and specific surface area and pore volume measurements. From the analysis of X-ray diffraction and Raman spectra, the phase of heat treated Y2O3-and CaO partially stabilized ZrO2 gel fibers(Y2O3:2.5~3 mol%, CaO:6~9 mol%) were identified as a tetragonal phase up to 100$0^{\circ}C$. The maximum tensile strength of 2.5Y2O3-97.5ZrO2 and 6CaO-94ZrO2 (in mol%) fibers heat treated at 100$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr was found be 1.3~2 GPa with diameters of 10~20 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

The effects of Mn2O3 and Y2O3 additives on the microstructure and dielectric properties of Sr(Zr, Ti)O3 have been investigated. Powders with Sr(Zr1-xTix)O3(0$\leq$x$\leq$0.1) composition were prepared by the conventional solid state processing from commercial TiO2 and precipitation-processed ZrO2. The powders containing sintering additives of Mn2O3 and Y2O3 were compacted and then sintered at 1,55$0^{\circ}C$ for 4 h to get>97% relative density. Mn2O3 suppressed the grain growth and Y2O3 enhanced the density of sintered body. The oxidation state of Mn ions were determined by a chemical wet method and EPR spectroscopy. Mn ions were present as Mn2+ and Mn4+ in SrZrO3, while as Mn3+ and Mn4+ in Ti-substituted Sr(Zr, Ti)O3. With the substitution of Ti, the lattice parameters of SrZrO3 decreased and its dielectric constant increased with remarkable decrease in Q value. The dielectric constant of Sr(Zr, Ti)O3 was in the range of 30 to 40, Q values 1,200~5,400 at 6 GHz and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency -67~100 ppm/K.

Thin films of $In_2O_3-SnO_2$(ITO), $SnO_2$, and $SiO_2$ were prepared on the PET substrate by DC magnetron roll sputtering. 135 nm thick ITO film on $SiO_2$/PET substrate has sheet resistance as low as 55 ${\Omega}/square$ and transmittance as high as 85%. $H_2O$gas permeation through the film was 0.35 g/$m^2$ in a day. These properties are enough on optical film for the plastic LCD substrate or touch panel. Both refractive index and sheet resistance of ITO was found to be very sensitive to $O_2$ flow rate. Oxygen flow conditions have been optimized from 4 to 5 SCCM at $10^{-3}$torr. It is also shown that both thickness of $SnO_2$ and refractive index of $SiO_2$ decrease as $O_2$ flow rate increases.

This experiment was studied in the system of (1-x) CaO MgO $2SiO-Al_2O_3$ to investigate forming of solid solution. The technique empolyed was the well known water-quenching method. Differential thermal analysis of the each glass water quenched indicated that under 30 mole% $Al_2O_3$ was lowered with increasing of the amount of $Al_2O_3$ It was supposed by X-ray diffraction patterns of each specimen sintered at various temperature that only solid solution was formed under the 30mole % $Al_2O_3$ compositions solid solution and anorthite were formed at the 20mole% $Al_2O_3$ composition anorthite solid solution and spinel$(MgAl_2O_4)$ were formed over the 40mole% $Al_2O_3$ compositions. The maximum density and thermal expanison coefficient was 2.89g/cm 7.74x106./C$^{\circ}$ respectively in the composi-tion of 10 mole% $Al_2O_3$ . All the specimens showed linear thermal expansion behavior. Microhardness was as high as 850kg/nm2 in the composition of 5, 10, 20 mole % $Al_2O_3$ and dielectric constant was 7.3-6.9.

X-선 형광분석법을 사용하여 표준검정곡선법으로 시멘트 중의 주, 부성분들을 정량하고 습식법과 분석결과를 비교하였다. 이때, 표준시료 및 미지시료는 용융 케스트 비드법으로 준비하였다. 표준시멘트(227A372)의 오차분석결과 주성분인 CaO, SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3 및 부성분중의 MgO, SrO는 상대오차가 1% 이내이었으며, 부성분중 So3, K2O, TiO2, Na2O P2O5 및 Mn2O3는 5% 이하의 상대오차를 가졌다. 부성분의 상대오차는 시료준비오차가 가장 큰 부분을 차지하였다. X-선 형광분석과 습식분석을 비교한 결과 시멘트 분석의 측정값간의 최대혀용범위를 만족하므로, X-선 형광분석법을 시멘트 화학분석에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 그리고, 기존의 습식법으로 분석하기 어려운 시멘트내에 존재하는 미량성분인 P2O5, SrO 및 Mn2O3 의 정밀정확한 분석 또한 가능하였다.

The effect of B2O3 addition on the sintering behavior dielectric and ferroelectric properties of Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3 ceramics were investigated. The sample with 0.5wt% B2O3 was sintered under 115$0^{\circ}C$. The dielectric and ferroelectric properties of BST with 0.5wt% B2O3 was as good as BST without B2O3 sintered at 135$0^{\circ}C$ and its dielectric loss was even better When B2O3 was added over 1.0wt% the overdoped B2O3 remained in the specimens and formed a second phase which degraded the sintering behaivor dielectric properties of BST.

Calcium aluminate glasses transmit light at relatively long wavelengths up to 6 ㎛ and exhibit also low Rayleigh scattering values. However they have a tendency to get devitrified easily, which limits their use as routine optical materials. Here, the ternary system CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 glasses with low-silica (<30 mol%) were prepared to prevent the devitrification of CaO-Al2O3 glasses and the properties were investigated as functions of composition. The addition of SiO2 to calcium aluminate glasses promoted their stability, which was due to the decrease of non-bridging oxygens and the reconnection of network. As SiO2 was added, density, refractive index, molar volume of oxygens and thermal expansion coefficient decreased continuously. But the glass transition temperatures with increasing SiO2 contents were raised and then lowered. It was postulated that the anomaly was related to the changes of the middle range order as well as the short range order. As the amount of SiO2 in the glass was increased, the IR cut-off values moved to shorter wavelength owing to 'Si-O' antisymetric stretching vibration. The IR cut-off wavelength of the glasses with 5 and 30 mol% SiO2 was 4.90, 4.55 ㎛, respectively.
