Perovskite structured barium titanate particles ($BaTiO_3$) platelets were synthesized by molten salt synthesis and topochemical microcrystal conversion. As the precursors of $BaTiO_3$, plate-like $BaBi_4Ti_4O_{15}$ particles were first synthesized by the reaction of $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$, $BaCO_3$, and $TiO_2$ at $1080^{\circ}C$ for 3 h in $BaCl_2$-KCl molten salt. After the topochemical reactions, layer-structured $BaBi_4Ti_4O_{15}$ particles transformed to the perovskite $BaTiO_3$ platelets. $BaTiO_3$ particles with thickness of approximately $0.5{\mu}m$ and a length of $10-15{\mu}m$ retained the morphology feature of the $BaBi_4Ti_4O_{15}$ precursor. For <001> $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-32.5PbTiO_3$ (PMNT)-5 wt % PbO piezoelectric ceramics textured with 5 vol % of $BaTiO_3$ templates, the Lotgering factor reached 0.82, and $d_{33}$ was 870 pC/N.

In this study, BiFe$O_3$-BaTi$O_3$ ceramics have been fabricated by a solid-state reaction method. The effects of BaTi$O_3$ content in the (1-x)BiFe$O_3$-xBaTi$O_3$ (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.25, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) system on crystal structure and magnetic, dielectric, and ferroelectric properties were investigated. Perovskite BiFe$O_3$ was stabilized through the formation of a solid solution with BaTi$O_3$. Rhombohedrally distorted structure (1-x)BiFe$O_3$-xBaTi$O_3$ ceramics showed strong ferromagnetism at x = 0.5. Dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the BiFe$O_3$-BaTi$O_3$ system also changed significantly upon addition of BaTi$O_3$. It was found that the maximum dielectric and ferroelectric properties were exhibited in the (1-x)BiFe$O_3$-xBaTi$O_3$ system at x = 0.25. This suggested the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) with the coexistence of both rhombohedral and cubic phases of the (1-x)BiFe$O_3$-xBaTi$O_3$ system at x = 0.25.

A BaTiO$_3$ was annexed to SrTiO$_3$, (x)BaTiO$_3$-(1-x)SrTiO$_3$ (0.7$\leq$X$\leq$1) ceramics with stable dielectric and electrical properties in high voltage were manufactured. Structural, dielectric and electrical properties were surveyed with the contents of SrTiO$_3$. The open porosity and sintering density were excellent in 0.9BaTiO$_3$-0.1SrTiO$_3$, the grain size of 0.9BaTiO$_3$-0.1SrTiO$_3$ was maximum at 12.40[${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$]. Increasing SrTiO$_3$ mol ratio, the curie temperature was shifted low temperature and the supreme permittivity was increased. In line with increasing of supplied voltage, permitivity was decreased slightly.

A novel antifuse has been developed for field programmable gate arrays (FPGA's) as a voltage programmable link with Al/$BaTiO_3/SiO_2$/TiW-silicide. The proper program voltage can be obtained by adjusting the deposition thickness of $BaTiO_3$ film. When a negative voltage was applied at bottom TiW-silicide electrode of the antifuse, based on $BaTiO_3(120{\AA})$/$SiO_2(120{\AA})$, the program voltage was about l4.4V and on-resistances were ranged between 40 and $50{\Omega}$. The current-voltage characteristics of antifuses are consistent with a Frenkel-Poole conduction model. However, there are some deviations depending on bias polarity that are probably due to the difference in the interface properties between Al/$BaTiO_3$ and TiW-silicide/$SiO_2$.

BaTiO₃ thin films was deposited on the slide glass by RF sputter. We have investigated the optical properties of BaTiO₃ film after corona poling process. The transmission characteristics was very good over 80% in visible region and second order nonlinear optical coefficient depends on the poling conditions. The nonlinear optical coefficient of poled BaTiO₃ films was about 1.15pm/V. The relaxation of second order nonlinear optical was remained around 60% of the initial value for a long time. In addition we have observed the green light generation from BaTiO₃ films.

The microstructural evolution of BaTiO3 ceramics during cubic-hexagonal phase transformation was investiga-ted. In the case of phase transformation from cubic to hexagonal BaTiO3 the hexagonal phase nucleated at the surface region of specimen. On the other hand in the case of that from hexgonal phase to cubic, cubic phase was initiated at the center region of specimen. And fast grain growth and irregular grain boundary shape could be also observed during these transformation processes. Besides low densified hexagonal BaTiO3 specimen was made with low forming pressure. The phase transformation of these specimens toward cubic phase was relatively retarded comparing with dense hexagonal BaTiO3 specimens. was made low forming pressure.. The phase transformation of these specimens toward cubic phase was relatively retarded comparing with dense hexagonal BaTiO3 specimens. These results were explained that hexagonal BaTiO3 had lowder surface energy than cubic phase.

Flexible $BaTiO_3$ films as dielectric materials for high energy density capacitors were deposited on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates by r.f. magnetron sputtering. The growth behavior, microstructure and electrical properties of the flexible $BaTiO_3$ films were dependent on the sputtering pressure during sputtering. The RMS roughness and crystallite size of the $BaTiO_3$ increased with increasing sputtering pressure. All $BaTiO_3$ films had an amorphous structure, regardless of the sputtering pressures, due to the low PET substrate temperature. The composition of films showed an atomic ratio (Ba:Ti:O) of 0.9:1.1:3. The electrical properties of the $BaTiO_3$ films were affected by the microstructure and roughness. The $BaTiO_3$ films prepared at 100 mTorr exhibited a dielectric constant of ~80 at 1 kHz and a leakage current of $10^{-8}A$ at 400 kV/cm. Also, films showed polarization of $8{\mu}C/cm^2$ at 100 kV/cm and remnant polarization ($P_r$) of $2{\mu}C/cm^2$. This suggests that sputter deposited flexible $BaTiO_3$ films are a promising dielectric that can be used in high energy density capacitors owing to their high dielectric constant, low leakage current and stable preparation by sputtering.

Nanocrystalline $BaTiO_3$ powder could be synthesized by solid-state reaction using the mixture which was prepared by a high energy milling process in a bead mill for $BaCO_3$ and nanocrystalline $TiO_2$ powders mixture. Effect of the milling time on the powder characteristic of the synthesized $BaTiO_3$ powder was investigated. Nanocrystalline $BaTiO_3$ with a particle size of 50 nm was obtained at $800^{\circ}C$. High tetragonal $BaTiO_3$ powder with a tetragonality(=c/a) of 1.009 and a specific surface area of $7.6m^2/g$ was acquired after heat-treatment at $950^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. High energy ball milling was effective in decreasing the reaction temperature and increasing the tetragonality.

(Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ thin films have attracted great interest as new dielectric materials of capacitors for ultra-large-scale integrated dynamic random access memories (ULSI-DRAMs) such as 1 Gbit or 4 Gbit. In this study, inductively coupled $BCl_3/Cl_2/Ar$ plasmas was used to etch (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ thin films. RF power/dc bias voltage=600 W/-250 V and chamber pressure was 10 mTorr. The $Cl_2/(Cl_2+Ar)$ was fixed at 0.2 the (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ thin films were etched adding $BCl_3$. The highest (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ etch rate is $480{\AA}/min$ at 10 % $BCl_3$ to $Cl_2/Ar$. The change of Cl, B radical density measured by optical emission spectroscopy(OES) as a function of $BCl_3$ percentage in $Cl_2/Ar$. The highest Cl radical density was shown at the addition of 10% $BCl_3$ to $Cl_2/Ar$. To study on the surface reaction of (Ba, Sr)$TiO_3$ thin films was investigated by XPS analysis. Ion bombardment etching is necessary to break Ba-O bond and to remove $BaCl_2$. There is a little chemical reaction between Sr and Cl, but Sr is removed by physical sputtering. There is a chemical reaction between Ti and Cl, and $TiCl_4$ is removed with ease. The cross-sectional of (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ thin film was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the etch slope is about 65~70$^{\circ}$.

The $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ heterolayered thick films were fabricated by the screen printing method on alumina substrates. The effect of the sintering temperature on the microstructure and dielectric properties of the $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ thick films has been investigated. The relative dielectric constant and dielectric loss at 1 MHz of the $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ heterolayered thick films with sintering temperature of $1350^{\circ}C$ were about 751 and 1.74, respectively. The remanent polarization $(P_r)$ of the pure $(Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5})TiO_3$ and $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ heterolayered films are approximately $5.1\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ and $10\;{\mu}C/cm^2$. This study suggests that the design of the $BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3$ heterolayered thick films capacitor with different phase should be an effective method to enhance the dielectric and ferroelectric performance in devices.
