The characteristics of $(Ba,Sr)TiO_3$[BST] thin films with the variation of $O_2/Ar$ ratio in sputtering gas deposited on $RuO_2$ bottom electrode were investigated. Dielectric constant of BST film increases from 135 to 190 with increasing oxygen partial pressure from 10 to 50, which is mainly due to the improved crystallinity of BST film. The instability of $RuO_2$ surface in $BST/RuO_2$ interface and the increase in the surface roughness of BST thin films with higher $O_2/Ar$ ratio appeared to play an important roles on the degradation of the leakage current characteristics of $Al/BST/RuO_2$ capacitor with various $O_2/Ar$ ratio in sputtering gas. As a consequence, the leakage current of BST thin film showed the lowest value of $1.9{\times}10^{-7}\; A/{\textrm}{cm}^2$ at $O_2/Ar{\approx}1/9$.

($Ba_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})TiO_3$thin films were perpared on ITO-coated glass substrate by spin-coating method. The sol was sonicated in an ultrasonic bath to promote homogenization and the results were compared with untreated case. By application of the sonication process, crystallization temperatures of films were reduced, microstructers of films were more uniform and denser and the surface roughness of the films was lower from 8.4nm to 5.6nm. In addition, optical transmittances and electrical properties of films prepraed from sonicated sol were superior to those of films from untreated.

(Ba$_{1-x}$ , Sr$_{x}$)TiO/$_3$thin films on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrates were prepared by LP MOCVD(Low Pressure Metal-Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition). The crystalinity of BST deposit had a (100) preferred orientation with increasing deposition temperature due to surface diffusion. BST films deposited at 90$0^{\circ}C$ showed a dielectric constant of 365 and a dissipation factor of 0.052 at a frequency of 100kHz. The chance of capacitance of the films with applied voltage was small, showing paraelectric properties.

The mean grain size of specimens sintered at 800 ℃ was about 30 nm, and the average thickness of 5 times coated specimens was 304~311 nm. In the specimen sintered at 750 ℃, The relative dielectric constant and loss of specimens measured at 20 ℃ were 230 and 0.130, respectively, while dependence of the dielectric constant on unit DC voltage was -8.163 %/V. The remanent polarization and coercive fields were 95.5 μC/㎠ and 161.3 kV/cm at 21 ℃, respectively. And, the highest electrocaloric property of 2.69 ℃ was observed when the electric field of 330 kV/cm was applied.

In this study, Sol-Gel derived $Ba_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}TiO_3$ (BST(70/30)) thin films were investigated. The stock solution of BST were fabricated and spin-coated on the Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si and ITO/glass substrates. The coated specimen were dried at $300^{\circ}C$ and finally annealed at $650{\sim}750^{\circ}C$.

Dielectricand pyroelectric properties of {{{{ { { {Ba }_{0.67 }Sr }_{0.33 } }`TiO_{3 } ^{ } }} (BST) thin plates and films were investigated. For BST thin plates maximum dielectric constant and pyrolelectric coefficient were observed at around 24$^{\circ}C$ and pyroelectric characteristics were improved as applied bias field was increased. When the electric field of 4kV/cm was applied to the thin plates sintered at 140$0^{\circ}C$ the pyroelectric coefficients over 4$\times$10-7C/{{{{ { cm}^{2 }K }} were obtained in the range of 0-4$0^{\circ}C$ BST thin films deposited using rf magnetron sputtering showed [001] preferred orientation at substrate temperatures above 50$0^{\circ}C$ On the contrary to the thin plates the dielectric constants of the thin films gradually increased above 15$^{\circ}C$ and decreased as applied bias field in-creased. The pyroelectric coefficients of thin films were lower than 1/10 those of thin plates.

In this paper, the performance of Au / $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$ (BST) / Magnesium oxide (MgO) two-layered electrically tunable band-pass Filters (BPFs) is demonstrated. The devices consist of microstrip, coplanar waveguide (CPW), and conductor-backed coplanar waveguide (CBCPW) structures. These BST thin film band-pass filters have been designed by the 2.5 D field simulator, IE3D, Zeland Inc., and fabricated by thin film process. The simulation results, using the 2-pole microstrip, CPW, and CBCPW band-pass filters, show the center frequencies of 5.89 GHz, 5.88 GHz, and 5.69 GHz, and the corresponding insertion losses are 2.67 dB, 1.14 dB, and 1.60 dB, with 3 %, 9 %, and 7 % bandwidth, respectively. The measurement results show the center frequencies of 6.4 GHz, 6.14 GHz, and 6.04 GHz, and their corresponding insertion losses are 6 dB, 4.41 dB, and 5.41 dB, respectively, without any bias voltage. With the bias voltage of 40 V, the center frequencies for the band-pass filters are measured to be 6.61 GHz, 6.31 GHz, and 6.21 GHz, and their insertion losses are observed to be 7.33 dB, 5.83 dB, and 6.83 dB, respectively. From the experiment, the tuning range for the band-pass filters are determined as about 3 % ~ 8 %.

The influence of MnO2 on the sintering property and PTCR behavior of(Ba0.8Sr0.2)TiO2 has been investigated. And the densities, grain sizes and electrical resitivities of specimens were measured as a function of doping with Mn ion of varying concentration. The density and grain size of the sintered specimens were almost the same regardless of MnO2 addition up to 0.2mol% MnO2. But in the case of 0.25mol% MnO2 addition, abnormal grain growth was appeared. So the grain size distribution was wide and density decreased greatly. The room-temperature resistivity increased as Mn content increased and the temperature coefficient of resistivity was highest in the case of 0.15mol% MnO2 addition.
