This study investigated the crystallization behaviour of sealing amorphous material heat-treated by conventional and microwave heating source. From X-ray diffraction and SEM analyses, it was shown that microwave heat-treated sample had well-grown $PbTiO_3$crystals and the high degree of crystallinity inspite of its heat-treated condition of shorten time and lower temperature as compared with a conventionally heat-treated sample. It was assumed that microwaves inhibit the nucleation of $PbTiO_3$crystal in nucleation stage, but promote the growth of $PbTiO_3$crystal above the critical size of crystal due to enhanced diffusion effect within the sample.

$PbTiO_3$ films were fabricated by electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition(ECR-PECVD). Deposition characteristics of $PbTiO_3$films on $RuO_2$ and Pt substrates were investigated with varying the flow rate of metalorganic source and substrate temperature. The residence time of Pb-oxide molecules in much longer on $RuO_2$ than on Pt substrate, while the perovskite nucleation is more difficult on $RuO_2$ than on Pt substrate. Therefore, the process conditions to obtain the single perovskite $PbTiO_3$ phase are more restricted on $RuO_2$ than on Pt substrates. An introduction of Ti-oxide seed layer increases perovskite nucleation density and thus enlarges the process window to obtain the single perovkite phase. The introduction of Ti-oxide seed layer make the PZT film that Ti-components of $PbTiO_3$ are partially substituted with Zr atoms have single perovskite phase for the wide range of Zr/(Zr+Ti) concentration ratios.

Pyroelectric properties and relaxation phenomena in Pb(Mg /sub 1/3/Nb/sub 2/3/)O₃-PbTiO₃ solid solution system were studied to establish the phase relation of the solid solution system. The dielectric constants and the pyroelectric coefficients of (1-x)PMN-xPT (x = 0.1∼0.4) system were investigated in the phase transition temperature range of -40°C∼200°C. The freezing temperature was calculated by fitting the experimental data with the Vogel-Fulcher relation. With all the experimental data, a modified phase diagram of the (1-x)PMN-xPT system was suggested.

Lead titanate ($PbTiO_3$) powder was prepared from lead nitrate ($Pb(NO_3)_2$) and titania ($TiO_2$) by hydrothermal route. Phase formation process was investigated by observing the phases formed in various experimental conditions like different KOH concentration, reaction temperature and time. $PbTiO_3$ powder was fabricated when the KOH concentration was 0.8M or higher. An intermediate compound, $PbTi_{0.8}O_{2.6}$, was formed at first by a reaction between PbO and $TiO_2$ and changed into $PbTiO_3$ powder with a perovskite crystal structure. A $PbTiO_3$ phase was formed in a shorter time when a KOH concentration was increased from 0.8M to 8M because a driving force for a $PbTiO_3$ formation was increased due to an increase in a degree of supersaturation. And $TiO_2$ (rutile) and $3PbO{\cdot}H_2O$ were observed at room temperature in a 0.8M KOH solution and $TiO_2$(rutile) and PbO (litharge) in a 8M KOH. A $PbTiO_3$phase was also formed in a shorter time at a higher reaction temperature as a reaction temperature influenced the rates for a dissolution and a precipitation.

PbTiO$_3$ 씨앗층을 이용하여 완화형 강유전체 Pb(Mg$_{1}$3/Ta$_{2}$3/)O$_3$ (PMT) 박막의 페로브스카이트 상안정화와 열처리 조건에 따른 미세구조변화, 이에 따른 전기적 특성 변화에 관하여 조사하였다. PbTiO$_3$ 박막을 스핀코팅법으로 3000 rpm에서 20초간(111) 방향으로 배향된 Pt / Ti / SiO$_2$/ Si 기판에 증착하여 안정화된 페로브스카이트 박막을 얻었다. 이렇게 제조된 PbTiO$_3$를 Buffer 층으로 사용하고 그 위에 Pb(Mg$_{1}$3/Ta$_{2}$3/)O$_3$를 박막을 Spin coating방법으로 증착한 후, 급속열처리 방법(RTA)으로 550- $650^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 열처리하였다. 제조된 박막의 열처리 온도에 따른 미세구조 변화와 결정성을 XRD, SEM, TEM으로 분석하였고 박막의 저온 강유전 특성을 RT66A를 이용하여 평가하였다. Pb(Mg$_{1}$3/Ta$_{2}$3/)O$_3$ 박막의 경우 씨앗층이 없는 경우에는 pyrochlore상이 주상이었지만 씨앗층을 사용한 경우 페로브스카이트 상이 주상임을 확인하였고 열처리 온도가 증가할수록 페로브스카이트상의 상대적 양이 증가함을 확인하였다. 미세구조와 상의 변화에 따른 전기적 특성 변화에 관하여 자세하게 논의할 것이다.

Ferroelectric anomaly in PbO-{{{{ { {B }_{2 }O }_{3 } }}-{{{{ {TiO }_{3 } }}-BaO glasses which is observed in DAT measurements was in-vestigated together with the effect of BaO content on the shift of Cuire temperature. The temperature where the ferroelectric anomaly apperars on cooling in DTA decreased in proportion with increasing BaO content,. For as-crystallized samples the ferroelectric anomaly was not observed on heating but on cooling whilist for powder samples leached chemically from the crystallized samples both endothermic and ex-otehrmic peaks were observed. This fact suggests that the appearance of the ferroelectric anomaly in DAT largely depends on glassy phases surrounding individual {{{{ {PbTiO }_{3 } }} crystals rather than effects of grain size and crystallinity.

Dielectric and piezoelectric properties of Pb$_0.9$La$_0.1$TiO$_3$ ceramics were investigated as a function of grain size. Sintering atmosphere was controlled with changing the kind of atmospheric powder and its amount. It was confirmed that dielectric and piezoelectric of Pb$_0.9$La$_0.1$TiO$_3$ were strongly influenced by the sintering atmosphere. Relative dielectric constant of Pb$_0.9$La$_0.1$TiO$_3$ which was sintered in PbO-deficient atmosphere made by Pb$_0.9$La$_0.1$TiO$_3$ powder, increased with the grain size. However, the dielectric constant of the samples sintered in the PbO-sufficient atmosphere made by PbZrO$_3$ powder was slightly decreased with the grain size. Piezoelectric d$_33$ constant of Pb$_0.9$La$_0.1$TiO$_3$ also showed a different trend, depending on the sintering atmosphere. It was almost constant in the range of grain size of 1.3~2.3 $\mu$m when the samples were sintered in the PbO-sufficient atmosphere, while it intensively decreased with the grain size in the case of the PbO-deficient condition.

In order to understand the electrostrictive behavior of Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) solid solutions the dielectric constants the electric-field-induced strains and the pyroelectric coefficients of (1-x)PMN-xPT (x=0.1-0.4) were investigated in the temperature range -50~20$0^{\circ}C$. For x=0.1~0.35 where the phase transi-tion is diffusive the strain has a maxima at the temperature of maximum pyroelectric coefficient (depolrizing temperature) rather than the temperature of maximum dielectric constant. For x=0.4 where the phase transition is relatively sharp the strain decreases monotonically as the temperature increases. Relationships among the above experimental results are discussed.

The effects of Pb5Ge3O11 on the sinterbility and lattice variation of the semiconducting 0.15 mol% Y2O3 doped BaTiO3 have been investigated as functions of additive contents (from 0.25 mol% to 2.5 mol%) and sintering temperatures (from 110$0^{\circ}C$ to 130$0^{\circ}C$). As the amount of Pb5Ge3O11 increases, the sinterbility of BaTiO3 increases abruptly at around 115$0^{\circ}C$. During the sintering, the most of Pb+2 ions in additives penetrate into BaTiO3 lattices and Ge+4 ions present at grain boundaries. Therefore the c lattice of the BaTiO3 increases largely and then the tetragonality increases due to the diffusion of the Pb+2 ions.
