Dense $0.95(Na_{0.5}K_{0.5})NbO_3-0.05LiTaO_3$ (NKN-5LT) ceramics were developed by conventional sintering process. Sintering temperature was lowered by adding $Na_2CO_3$ as a sintering aid. The electrical properties of NKN-5LT ceramics were investigated as a function of $Na_2CO_3$ concentration. When the sample sintered at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 4 h with the addition of 1 mol% $Na_2CO_3$, electro-mechanical coupling factor $(k_p)$ and piezoelectric coefficient $(d_{33})$ of NKN-5LT ceramics were found to reach the highest values of 0.43 and 190 pC/N, respectively.

The sintering phenomena and piezoelectric properties of PZT ceramics of composition $Pb(Zr_{0.54} Ti_{0.46})O_3$ were investigated when a small quantity of $La_2O_3$ , $LaMnO_3$, $LaCrO_3$ were added. The unwanted chemical composition change in PZT during sinterin porces du to PbO evaporation poses a severe problem in PZt manufacturinig. It is observed tat an addition of small amount of $LaMnO_3$ to PZT markedly decreases the evaporation of PbO during sintering . The green compact of (1-x) PZT.xLaMnO3(x=0.02~0.10) could be sintered of under O2 atmosphere alone with no significant loss of PbO. The planar coupling factor kp of the sintered $0.98Pb(Zr_{0.54} Ti_{0.46})O_{3.0.02}LaMnO}3$ is similar to that of commercial PZT 6A. Microstructure investigation shows that part of sintering process of $Pb(Zr, Ti)O_3$.$LaMnO_3$ system progresses via liquid phase sintering. It is believed that the evaporation of PbO in PZT sintering is restricted by the addition of $LaMnO_3$ due to the above phenomena. Furthermore the solid solution of $LaMnO_3$ in PZT causes diffuses phase transition.

A current research basically diverted towards an increase in the operational output with the minimization of the materials used, which ultimately scaled down the dimensions of ceramic electronic components. In this direction the nano-technology pave the revolutionary changes in particular the electronic industries. The applications of nano-sized particles or nano-sized materials are hence, playing a significant role for various purposes. The PZT(lead, zirconium, titanium) based ceramics which, are reported to be ferroelectric materials have their important applications in the areas of surface acoustic waves (SAW), filters, infrared detectors, actuators, ferroelectric random access memory, speakers, electronic switches etc. Moreover, these PZT materials possess the large electro mechanical coupling factor, large spontaneous polarization, low dielectric loss and low internal stress etc. Hence, keeping in view the unique properties of PZT piezoelectric ceramics we also tried to synthesize indigenously the small sized PZT ceramic powder in the laboratory by using the modified sol-gel approach. In this paper, propyl alcohol based sol-gel method was used for preparation of PZT piezoelectric ceramic. The powder obtained by this sol-gel process was calcined and sintering to reach a pyrochlore-free crystal phase. The characterization of synthesized material was carried out by the XRD analysis and the surface morphology was determined by high resolution scanning electron microscopy.

횡진동 모드 압전진동자의 우주-항공산업에의 적극적인 활용을 위하여 우주환경을 모사한 열진공 챔버를 사용하여 $-100^{\circ}C{\sim}90^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 PZT-5계열의 압전세라믹 진동자의 온도변화에 따른 특성변화를 조사하였다. 그 결과 공진 및 반공진주파수는 상온일 때를 중심으로 온도의 변화에 따라 증가하였고 유전상수의 경우 주어진 온도 범위에서 2500~7500의 범위에서 선형적으로 증가하였다. 기계적 손실은 0.08~0.03의 범위에서 선형적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이들에 대한 회귀분석을 통하여 1차원 및 2차원 회귀함수를 이용하여 압전진동자의 각 특성에 대한 온도의존함수들을 도출하였다. 이들 함수를 적용하여 구한 횡모드 압전 진동자의 입력어드미턴스의 계산결과는 측정결과와 좋은 일치를 보이고 있었으며 우주환경에서의 온도에 따른 특성변화 예측에 유효함을 확인할 수 있었다.

The $(Na_{0.52}K_{0.44})(Nb_{0.9}Sb_{0.06})O_3-0.04dLiTaO_3$ (NKNS-LT) ceramics with various $Cu_2O$ concentration were prepared by the conventional solid state reaction method. The $Cu_2O$ content was varied in the range of 0.1~0.4 wt%. The effects of Cu on microstructure, crystallographic phase transition, and piezoelectric properties were investigated. The material with perovskite structure had a tetragonal phase (T1) when $Cu_2O$ concentration was less than 0.3 wt% and it transformed to another tetragonal phase (T2) when the $Cu_2O$ amount was greater than 0.3 wt%. The phase boundary between T1 and T2 phases appeared at around 0.3 wt% of $Cu_2O$ concentration. The piezoelectric properties were shown the maximum values at the composition of the phase boundary. The electro-mechanical coupling factor ($k_p$) was 0.42 and the piezoelectric charge constant ($d_{33}$) was 245 pC/N at the 0.3 wt% of $Cu_2O$ concentration.

압전복합체는 낮은 음향 임피던스와 높은 전기-기계 결합계수를 가지는 장점으로 인해 광대역 음향 트랜스듀서의 개발에 널리 활용되고 있으나, 구조의 복잡성으로 인해 이를 이용한 각종 트랜스듀서의 설계에 많은 제약이 있어왔다. 본 논문에서는 1-3형 압전복합체의 등가물성을 도출하여, 압전복합체와 동일한 특성을 가지는 균질한 단일 상의 물질로 대체하는 방법을 제안하였다. 압전복합체의 다양한 진동모드에서의 공진특성을 정확히 나타낼 수 있는 등가물성 도출을 위해 공진법과 유한 요소 해석법을 이용하였다. 제작한 1-3형 압전복합체 시편과 유한요소해석 모델의 주파수 특성을 비교하여 본 논문의 등가물성도출 방법의 타당성을 검증하였으며, 등가물성을 각 공진 모드별 단일상의 유한요소 해석 모델들에 적용하여 도출한 물성값의 정확성을 분석하였다.

본 논문에서는 비파괴검사용 고성능 결함탐상기를 위한 압전변환기를 구현하였다. 여기서는 압전변형상수와 전기기계 결합계수 등과 같은 주요 특성에 대한 설계 목표치를 먼저 정하고 유한요소해석을 이용하여 얻은 데이터를 설계 및 제작에 활용하였다. 시편을 이용한 실험 결과, 제작된 PZT 세라믹은 목표치들을 매우 잘 만족시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 이는 공진 주파수에서 매우 향상된 임피던스 특성과 초음파 발생 특성을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 새로운 압전변환기가 적용된 초음파 결함탐상기는 기존 탐상기보다 증가된 결함 검출이득을 제공한다. 따라서 새로운 결함탐상기는 초음파를 이용한 비파괴검사의 검사 신뢰성 향상에 크게 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Recently, various hearing aids are developed to overcome hearing loss. There are available hearing aids, such as air conduction hearing aid, implantable middle ear hearing aid and so on. But air conduction hearing aid is inconvenience caused by howling, and ossicle chain driving type implantable middle ear hearing aid has some week point due to problem of possible nercobiosis of coupling spot along incus long process. In recent years, in order to improve these shortcomings round window (RW) driving hearing aid has been paying attention. In this paper, the physical cochlear model is proposed for a performance evaluation of the RW driving hearing aids of a transducer. In order to verify an experiment proposed on a performance of physical cochlear model, the transducer which has ossicles characteristics is used. By measuring and comparing the frequency characteristics of transducer with ossicles and human temporal bone, performance of physical cochlear model was verified. As from the result of experiment, it is expected that an implemented cochlear model is useful for evaluating characteristics of RW transducer.

Piezoelectric properties of $(Pb_{1-x}Y_x)[(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.15}(Zr_{1/2}Ti_{1/2)})_{0.85}]O_{3}$ (x=0~0.05) ceramics were investigated, The stoichiometric PNN-PZT ceramics required the sintering temperature above $1100^{\circ}C$, but the addition of $Y_{2}O_{3}$ in the PNN-PZT ceramic lowered the sintering temperature down to $1000^{\circ}C$. In case of x=0.005, the electro-mechanical coupling $factor(K_p)$, the piezoelectric $constant(d_{33})$, and the maximum strain ratio of PNN-PZT ceramics sintered at $1000^{\circ}C$ were 53.1%, 395pC/N, and $2200{\times}10^{-6}$ respectively, A 30-layer piezoelectric actuator$(10{\times}10{\times}1.7mm)$ fabricated with the above material showed the maximum strain of $2.09{\mu}m$ under 100V DC bias.

In this study, the microstructure, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of $0.15Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.85(PbZr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})O_3$(0.15PNN-0.85PZT) ceramics having compositions near the morphotropic phase boundary(MPB) was investigated with respect to the variation of $Y_2O_3$ and $Ga_2O_3$ addition amount. The dielectric properties increased and piezoelectric properties decreased with increasing the amount of $Ga_2O_3$. The solubility limit of $Y_2O_3$ is 0.5mol% in this system. The electro-mechanical coupling factor$(K_p)$ and dielectric constant(${\varepsilon}_r$) were 58.6% and 1755 when the amount of $Y_2O_3$ are 0.5mol%.
