화학양론적 $BaTiO_3$의 소결은 고온의 에너지를 필요로 하며, 내부전극과 세라믹충의 동시소성과정에서 Ni이 세라믹층으로의 확산이 발생되어 PTC의 물성저하를 초래한다. 본 연구에서는 저온에서 액상을 형성하여 소결온도를 낮추는 것으로 알려진 산화물 및 비산화물계 소결첨가제가 적층 PTC 세라믹스의 미세구조 및 전기적 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 소결과정에서 분해되어 기체를 형성하는 BN, $Li_2CO_3$, LiF의 경우 기공율을 증가시켜 산소의 이동경로를 형성하였으며, 이는 입계의 재산화를 용이하게 하여 PTC 효과를 보였다.

The effect of Re-oxidation on the PTCR properties of Sm-doped barium titanate ceramics was investigated by means of impedance spectroscopy. Electrical properties such as resistance vs. temperature, I-V curve were measured and microstructure was observed with SEM photography. Sample was fabricated with thick film process such as tape casting of green sheet, screen printing of electrode pattern, stacking, firing in reduced atmosphere and re-oxidation, etc. As the temperature of re-oxidation increases, resistance jump as a function of temperature enhances but resistance at room temperature increases. These behavior of resistance as a function of temperature, dependent on the re-oxidation condition, is analyzed with Cole-Cole impedance plot and is shown to be related with the degree of oxidation of grain boundary regardless of grain core during re-oxidation process of sample.

Barium Titanate ($BaTiO_3$) is one of the few titanateds which is cubic at room temperature. It has the perovskite structure, high dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r=300$) and a small temperature coefficient of resistance due to it's Low transition temperature ($Tc=120^{\circ}c$). PTCR (Positive Temperature Coefficient of Resistivity) thermistor in thin film $BaTiO_3$ system was prepared by using radio frequency (13.56MHz) and BC magnetron sputter equipment. Polycrystalline, and surface structure characteristics of the specimens were measured by X-ray diffraction (D-Max3, Rigaku, Japan), SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy: M. JSM84 01, Japan), respectively. Temperature at below $600^{\circ}C$, $1000^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$, and above $1100^{\circ}C$ for spotted $BaTiO_3$ thin films showed the amorphous, degree of crystal growth, and polycrystalline, respectively.
