$(Ba_{1-x}Sr_xTiO_3$ (BST) thin films have been grown on Pt-coated MgO by metal -organic chemical vapor deposition. X-ray diffraction results showed that BST films were grown on a Pt/MgO substrate with (100) preferred orientation perpendicular to the surface. The lineawr relationship of P-E curve obtained form hysteresis loop measurement indicated that the BST films had a Curie transitions below room temperature . Films deposited at $900^{\circ}C$ exhibited a smooth and dense microstructure, a dielectric constant of 202, and a dissipation facotr of 0.02 at 100kHz. The leakage current density of the BST films is about $2\times10^{-10} \;A/\textrm{cm}^2$$ at an applied electric field of 0.2 MV/cm. The electrical behavior on the current-voltage characteristics is well explained by the bulk-limited Pool-Frenkel emission.

Flow sensor was fabricated with PTC thermistor usually operating as thermostats. The PTC thermistor was manufactured with $(Ba_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})TiO_{3}$ powder and its resistivity as a function of flow velocity was investigated. The resistivity changed from 4.45 $k{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ to 3.95 $k{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ as flow velocity varied 0 cm/s to 5 cm/s The sensitivities of the PTC thermistor were -204 (${\Omega}{\cdot}cm$)/(cm/s) and -24 (${\Omega}{\cdot}cm$)/(cm/s) at the flow velocity of 1 cm/s and 5 cm/s, respectively.

This dissertation is about the development of PTC(Positive Temperature Coefficient) thermistor by composition method. A multilayer-type PTC samples were fabricated under optimal conditions after setting the experimental composition equation as $(0.90Ba+0.05Sr+0.05Ca)TiO_3+0.01TiO_3+0.01SiO_2+0.0008MnO_2+0.0018Nb_2O_5$ and their testing results were analyzed. The fabrication method of SMD(Surface Mounted Device) multilayer -type sample based on the composition ratio has the advantages in lowering its resistivity at room temperature, considerably, and increasing maximum current level, as needed. Although there is a disadvantage of peak resistivity drop by the multilayer, causing the increasement of thermal capacity. and thereby, increasing the switching delay time, a high applying voltage can increase the peak resistivity and shorten the switching delay time. The voltage-current characteristic showed that the more multilayers increased the initial maximum current and the transition voltage that increased the resistivity abruptly according to the curie point. The element it could be applied with the sensor for the fire detector.

We have investigated that the effect of post annealing on the structural and electrical properties of $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$ thin films. The BST thin films were deposited on n-type 4H-silicon carbide(SiC) using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The deposition was carried out in oxygen ambient 100mTorr for 5 minutes, which results in about 300nm-thick BST films. For the BST/4H-SiC, 200nm thick silver was deposited on the BST films bye-beam evaporation. The X-ray diffraction patterns of the BST films revealed that the crystalline structure of BST thin films has been improved after post-annealing at $850^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The root mean square (RMS) surface roughness of the BST film measured by using a AFM was increased after post-annealing from 5.69nm to 11.49nm. The electrical properties of BST thin film were investigated by measuring the capacitance-voltage characteristics of a silver/BST/4H-SiC structure. After the post-annealing, dielectric constant of the film was increased from 159.67 to 355.33, which can be ascribed to the enhancement of the crystallinity of BST thin films.

본 연구에서는 $BaTiO_3$를 기본조성으로하는 반도성 세라믹스인 PTC 써미스터에 $Nb_2O_5$을 미량 첨가하여 미세구조 및 PTCR의 전기적 특성에 대해서 연구하였다. 또한 복소 임피던스 측정을 통하여 $Nb_2O_5$ 첨가에 따른 grain, grain boundary 저항변화에 대해서도 고찰하였다. $(Ba_{0.9}Sr_{0.05}Ca_{0.05})TiO_3-0.01SiO_2-0.001MnCO_3$를 기본조성으로 하여 $Nb_2O_5$ 첨가량을 $0.15{\sim}0.2mol%$까지 변화시켰으며 소결조건은 소결온도 $1350^{\circ}C$, 2h 유지하였으며 냉각속도는 $100^{\circ}C/h$로 하였다 첨가된 Nb의 양이 증가할수록 grain의 크기는 점차로 작아졌으며 상온저항과 peak 저항이 함께 증가하였다. 0.15mol% 첨가된 시편의 경우 상온저항은 $19[\Omega]$이었으며 peak 저항은 $5{\times}10^6[{\Omega}]$정도가 되었다.

Perovskite manganites such as $RE_{1-x}A_xMnO_3$ (RE = rare earth, A = Ca, Sr, Ba) have been the subject of intense research in the last few years, ever since the discovery that these systems demonstrate colossal magnetoresistance (CMR). The CMR is usually explained with the double-exchange (DE) mechanism, and CMR materials have potential applications for magnetic switching, recording devices, and more. However, the intrinsic CMR effect is usually found under the conditions of a magnetic field of several Teslas and a narrow temperature range near the Curie temperature ($T_c$). This magnetic field and temperature range make practical applications impossible. Recently, another type of MR, called the low-field magnetoresistance(LFMR), has also been a research focus. This MR is typically found in polycrystalline half-metallic ferromagnets, and is associated with the spin-dependent charge transport across grain boundaries. Composites with compositions $La_{0.7}(Ca_{1-x}Sr_x)_{0.3}MnO_3)]_{0.99}/(BaTiO_3)_{0.01}$ $[(LCSMO)_{0.99}/(BTO)_{0.01}]$were prepared with different Sr doping levels x by a standard ceramic technique, and their electrical transport and magnetoresistance (MR) properties were investigated. The structure and morphology of the composites were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). BTO peaks could not be found in the XRD pattern because the amount of BTO in the composites was too small. As the content of x decreased, the crystal structure changed from orthorhombic to rhombohedral. This change can be explained by the fact that the crystal structure of pure LCMO is orthorhombic and the crystal structure of pure LSMO is rhombohedral. The SEM results indicate that LCSMO and BTO coexist in the composites and BTO mostly segregates at the grain boundaries of LCSMO, which are in accordance with the results of the magnetic measurements. The resistivity of all the composites was measured in the range of 90-400K at 0T, 0.5T magnetic field. The result indicates that the MR of the composites increases systematically as the Ca concentration increases, although the transition temperature $T_c$ shifts to a lower range.

The thin films of high pemitivity in ferroelectric materials using a capacitor are applied to DRAMs and FRAMs. (Ba, Sr)$TiO_3$ thin films as ferroelectric materials were prepared by the sol-gel method and made by spin-coating on the Pt/Ti/$SiO_2/Si$ substrate at 4,000 [rpm] for 10 seconds. The devices of BST thin films to composite $(Ba_{0.7},Sr_{0.3})TiO_3$ were fabricated by changing of the depositing layer number on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrate. The thin film capacitor to be ferroelectric devices was investigated by structural and electrical properties. The thickness of BST thin films at each coating numbers 3, 4 and 5 times was $2500[\AA]$, $3500[\AA]$, $3800[\AA]$. The dielectric factor of thin film when the coating numbers were 3, 4 and 5 times was 190, 400 and 460 on frequency l[MHz]. The dielectric loss of BST thin film was linearly increased by increasing of the specimen area.
