A remarkable improvement of the productivity in barium titanate by slurry spray pyrolysis process was realized by supplying solid source slurry into the rector. The produced barium titanate powders showed uniform powder properties, and reproducibility with higher tetragonality in the range of 80$\sim$200 nm, case by case. The secondary calcination experiments of the as-prepared powders by spray pyrolysis revealed that the powders as-prepared over 700$^{\circ}C$ showed perfectly different behavior with the lower temperature's ones and the solid state reaction’s case. The result was discussed in terms of the reaction mechanism based on the activation energy analysis.

In this study, pore-containing barium titanate ceramics were prepared with different porosities and pore sizes, in order to better understand how porosity and pore size affect electrical breakdown of barium titanate ceramics. A granulated barium titanate powder was mixed with three grades of commercial polymer microspheres up to 11wt%. The electrical breakdown test was performed at two different temperatures of 30.deg. C(below Tc) and 150.deg. C(above Tc) for samples immersed in a silicon oil bath using a 60kV de power supply. Electrical breakdown strength of pore containing barium titanate ceramics with porosity lower than 10% decreased as pore size and porosity increased. However, above the 10% porosity region, electrical breakdown strength decreased as the pore connectivity increased. From the experimental results, an optimum electrical breakdown model is proposed in an attempt to explain the effect of pores.

Pure and fine, two-component titanate powders (barium titanate, calcium titanate etc.) were synthesized by an ethylene glycol method. Titanium isopropoxide and other metal ionic salts were dissolved in liquid-type ethylene glycol without any precipitation. In non-aqueous system, the amount of ethylene glycol affected the solubility and homogeneity of metal cation sources in the solution. At the optimum amount of the polymer, the metal ions were dispersed effectively in solution and a homogeneous polymeric network was formed. Most of the synthesized powders had sub-micron or nano-size primary particles after calcination and the agglomerated calcined powders were easily ground by ball milling process. All synthesized titanate powders had stable crystallization behavior at low temperature and high specific surface area after ball milling. The crystallization behavior and the microstructures of the calcined powders were affected on the ethylene glycol content.

The effects of particle size on the surface properties of hydro-thermally synthesized barium titanate powders were investigated by means of particle size analysis, specific surface area, SEM, zeta potential and XPS. Particle sizes were measured by laser light scattering and are in the range of 150 to 1100nm. Zeta potential increased with increasing particle size and it was large minus value in the range of particle size from 500 to 900nm, which seems to be related with the dissolution of $Ba^{2+}$ ion in these particle sizes from the analysis of surface properties by XPS.

Sol-gel processing of $BaTiO_3$ ceramics doped with La(0.01-1.00 at. $\%$) were prepared from metal barium, titanium n-butoxide and lanthanum iso-propoxide. Characterization of the sol-gel-derived powder using XRD, SEM is also reported. The obtained results showed that insulator to semiconductor transition for highly donor-doped barium titanate was closely related to the incorporation of donor into the grains and to the resultant grain size, which were significantly affected by the sinterability of $BaTiO_3$ powders and sintering conditions used.

This paper reports a newly developed sol-gel process to synthesize dense YBCO thick films with BaTiO$_3$additives using electrophoretic deposition and metal alkoxide sol/particle suspension, which we successfully produce dense $YBCO+BaTiO_3$ ceramics at a rather low temperature, compared with the sintering temperature used in conventional methods. The thick films of HTS were prepared by electrophoretic deposition, using pre-sintered powder with barium titanate addition in the form of $BaTi(OR)_6$ solution in suspension for electrophoresis. The conditions for applied voltage and deposition times for electrophoretic deposition of HTS thick films were studied in detail.

Barium titanate (BaTiO3) is one of the most important dielectric materials for the electronic devices, such as MLCC (Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor). The thickness of the dielectric thin film in MLCC has become thinner and reached about 0.8 ${\mu}m$. Further down sizing is required for the higher performance. For this reason, we should take into account for the size effect of Barium titanate powders. In this study, we demonstrated that size effect for BaTiO3 (0.2 ~ 0.5 ${\mu}m$, hydrothermal BT) could be estimates by using dielectric properties analysis together with the powder properties.
