Influence of $TiO_2$ on the dielectric properties of the $Bi(Nb_{0.7}Ta_{0.3})O_4$ ceramic with 7 wt% zinc borosilicate(ZBS) glass was investigated as a function of the $TiO_2$ contents with a view to applying this system to LTCC technology. The $Bi(Nb_{0.7}Ta_{0.3})O_4$ ceramic addition of 7 wt% ZBS glass ensured successful sintering below $900^{\circ}C$. But, TCF of $Bi(Nb_{0.7}Ta_{0.3})O_4$ ceramic is large negative values, respectively, it is necessary to adjust to zero TCF for practical applications Therefore, the addition of materials having positive TCF, such as $TiO_2$, might be an effective method for the improvement. In general, increasing addition of $TiO_2$ increased dielectric constant and TCF but it decreased the sinterability and $Q{\tiems}f$ value significantly due to the dielectric property and high sintering temperature of $TiO_2$. $Bi(Nb_{0.7}Ta_{0.3})O_4$ ceramic with 7 wt% ZBS glass and then addition 0.5 wt% $TiO_2$ sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ demonstrated 42 in the dielectric constant(${\varepsilon}_r$), 1,000 GHz in the $Q{\times}f$ value, and $10{\pm}5\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ in the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency(${\tau}_f$).

For clearing the cause of firing due to the tacking on the surface of phenolic resin, this paper describes the analysis through a couple of methods ; FT-IR; DTA; photograph analysis, etc. Phenolic resin has been widely employed as a case of low voltage appliances. In the experiment it was confirmed that its surface was carbonized and graphitized by the external fire. In the FT-IR test a graphite specimen thermally treated at $150[^{\circ}C]$ showed the 2 different IR absorption peaks at $1,730[cm^{-1}]\;and\;1,680[cm^{-1}]$. In normal phenolic resin, the exothermic peak appeared at $450[^{\circ}C]$, while in graphite specimen, it appeared at $610[^{\circ}C]$ in DTA test. From the results, the electrical fire causes could be cleared and it is expected to protect the human life and property from the electrical fire by using the important data.

Rare-earth niobates, ag (Ln = Y, La, Gd) are well-known self-activated phosphors due to charge transfer in $NbO^{3-}_4$ showing a broad and strong emission band in the spectral region around 410 nm. In order to find new blue and red phosphors for FED, $LaNbO_4$ : X (X = Bi, Eu) phosphors are prepared through solid-state reactions at high temperature. The optimum reaction condition for these phosphors to give maximum emission intensity is obtained when it is first fired at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2 h followed by second firing at $1400^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. Under irradiation at 254 nm, $1mol\%\;Bi^{3+}$ doped $LaNbO_4$ phosphor shows strong blue emission band with a range of $420\~450nm$. Also $10mol\%\;Eu^{3+}$ doped $LaNbO_4$ phosphor shows the maximum emission intensity at about 610 nm. Emission peaks at $415\~460nm$, $530\~560nm$and $570\~620nm$are observed in phosphors below $10mol\%\;Eu^{3+}$ doped $LaNbO_4$. Similar results are obtained in cathodoluminescent property of these phosphors.

Physicochemical characteristics and evaluation were studied by subdividing the concretes, bricks and earth pipes on the site of the Japanese Ministry of General Affairs in Joseon Dynasty, known as modern architecture, into three periods. Concretes showed similar specific gravity and absorption ratio, and large amounts of aggregates, quartz, feldspar, calcite and portlandite were detected. Porosity of the 1907 bricks were higher than those of 1910 and 1950 bricks. All earthen pipe is similar, but the earlier one was found to be more dense. Bricks and earthen pipes are dark red to brown in color within many cracks and pores, but the matrix of the earthen pipe is relatively homogeneous. Quartz, feldspar and hematite are detected in bricks, and mullite is confirmed with quartz and feldspar in earthen pipes, so it is interpreted that the materials have a firing temperature about 1,000 to 1,100℃. Concretes showed similar CaO content, but brick and earthen pipe had low SiO₂ and high Al₂O₃ in the 1907 specimen. However, the materials have high genetic homogeneity based on similar geochemical behaviors. Ultrasonic velocity and rebound hardness of the concrete foundation differed due to the residual state, but indicated relatively weak physical properties. Converting the unconfined compressive strength, the 1st extended area had the highest mean values of 45.30 and 46.33 kgf/cm², and the 2nd extended area showed the lowest mean values (20.05 and 24.76 kgf/cm²). In particular, the low CaO content and absorption ratio, the higher ultrasonic velocity and rebound hardness. It seems that the concrete used in the constructions of the Japanese Ministry of General Affairs in Joseon Dynasty had similar mixing characteristics and relatively constant specifications for each year. It is interpreted that the bricks and earthen pipes were through a similar manufacturing process using almost the same raw materials.
