The characteristics of the ablation plume generated by 532 nm Nd: YAG laser irradiation of a Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (PZT) target have been investigated using a pulsed-field time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOFMS). The relative abundance of O+, Ti+, Zr+, Pb+, TiO+, and ZrO+ ions has been measured and discussed. TiO+ and ZrO+ ions were also found to be particularly stable within the laser ablation plasma with respect to PbO+ species. The behavior of the temporal distributions of each ionic species was studied as a function of the delay time between the laser shot and the ion extraction pulse. The most probable velocity of each ablated ion is estimated to be Vmp=1.1-1.6x 105 cm/s at a laser fluence of 1.2 J/cm2, which is typically employed for the thin film deposition of PZT. The TOF distribution of Ti+ and Zr+ ions shows a trimodal distribution with one fast and two slow velocity components. The fast velocity component (6.8x 10' cm/s) appears to consist of directly ablated species via nonthermal process. The second component, originated from the thermal evaporation process, has a characteristic velocity of 1.4-1.6 x 105 cm/s. The slowest component (1.2 x 105 cm/s) is composed of a dissociation product formed from the corresponding oxide ion.

Electric-field-induced electron emission from the three kinds of $Pb(Zr_{0.56}Ti_{0.44})O_3$ ferroelectric cathodes with different electrode structure has been investigated. Regardless of the electrode structures, a threshold field of the each cathode was 2.5-2.6kV/mm, which is 3 times higher than the coercive field of $Pb(Zr_{0.56}Ti_{0.44})O_3$ material. Although the waveform of the electron currents was affected by the structure of the electrode, no significant difference for the emission properties such as the peak current and the pulse width was observed from the three kinds of the cathodes. However, the current density of the cathode was dependent on the electrode structure. From the simulation of electric field distribution, the surface flashover, and the injury region of the cathode surface, it was proved that the prime electrons were initiated at the electrode-ceramic-vacuum triple point by field emission and the emission currents were strongly enhanced by the surface plasma.

In this study, in order to develop high sensitivity and low noise acoustic emission sensor, we manufactured the Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$ ceramics with the addition of WO$_3$ wt% to search for its required characteristics. Dielectric constant was increased as a function of the increase of WO$_3$ wt%. The Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$ (EC-65) ceramics added with 0.1lwt% WO$_3$ showed excellent dielectric constant and piezoelectric constants of 1931 and 199.55$\times$10$^{-12}$ (C/N), respectively. Accordingly It was shown as the composition ceramics suitable for AE sensor.

The possiblity of the existence of a spontaneous relaxor-normal ferroelectric transition was proposed and examined using 1~5 mol% PbZrO3-doped Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PNN-PT) systems having tetragonal symmetry at rom temperature. On cooling, the system with 60mol% Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3 underwent a spontaneous transition from a relaxor to a normal ferroelectric state. A microscopic examination demonstrates that the relaxornormal ferroelectric transition corresponds to a micro-macro domain switching accompanied with thermoelastic martensitic transformation. The long-range macrodomains below the transition temperature were characterized by twinlike 90$^{\circ}$macrodomains with tetragonal symmetry. The relaxor-normal ferroelectric transition was further correlated with the rhombohedral-tetragonal first-order structural transition.

Ferroelectric $Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ (PZT) 박막을 $Pt(111)/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ 기판위에 증착되었고, 수소 후열처리 후의 특성변화를 연구하였다. 동시에 10 nm의 $(Pb_{0.72}La_{0.28})Ti_{0.94}O_3$ (PLT) buffer를 사용한 PZT 박막의 수소 후열처리 효과를 관찰하였다. PZT 박막의 경우, 수소 후열처리 전과 후에 강유전 특성이 현저하게 감소한 반면, PLT buffer가 사용된 PZT 박막의 경우, 강유전 특성에 거의 변화가 없었다. 이는 PLT buffer를 사용함으로써 PZT 박막의 배향성이 향상되고, 이에 따라 forming gas에 의한 수소원자가 박막 내로의 침투가 어렵게 된다. 따라서 수소원자에 대한 PZT 박막의 열화되는 현상이 buffer를 사용하는 경우, 거의 나타나지 않게 된다.

Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ is one of the most attractive ferroelectric materials for realizing the FeRAM due to its higher remanant polarization and the ability to withstand higher coercive fields. Generally, the ferroelectric materials were patterned by a plasma etching process for high-density FeRAM. The applicable possibility of CMP process to pattern Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ instead of plasma etching process was investigated in our previous study for improvement of an angled sidewall which prevents the densification of ferroelectric memory and is apt to receive the plasma damage. Our previous study showed that good removal rate with the excellent surface roughness compared to plasma etching process were obtained by CMP process for the patterning of Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$. The suitable selectivity to TEOS without any damage to the structural property of Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ was also guaranteed. In this study, the removal mechanism of $Pb_{1.1}(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ coated by sol-gel method was investigated. Surface analysis of polished specimens at the best and worst conditions was carried out by XPS.

Microstructure and electrical properties of ZnO-doped (0-5 mol%) 0.05 Pb(Mn1/3Sb2/3)O3-0.95 PZT ceramics were investigated. Sintering temperature was decreased to 100$0^{\circ}C$ due to eutetic reaction between PbO and ZnO. Grain-size increased up to adding 1mol% ZnO and then decreased. Compositions of grain and grain-boundary were investigated by WDS. Lattice parameter was decreased with ZnO addition. Density increased with ZnO addition and reached to the maximum of 7.84(g/cm2) at 2 mol% ZnO. The effect of ZnO on electrical properties of PMS-PZT was investigated. At 3mol% ZnO addition electromechanical coupling factor(kp) was about 50% and relative dielectric constant($\varepsilon$33/$\varepsilon$0) was 997 Mechanical quality factor(Qm) decreased with ZnO addition. Lattice parameters and tetragonality(c/a) were measured to investigate relationship between the electric properties and substitution of Zn2+. At 3 mol% ZnO tetragonality was maximiged at c/a=1.0035 Curie temperature (Tc) decreased slightly with ZnO addition.

PbTiO$_{3}$-PbZrO$_{3}$-Pb(Ni$_{1}$3/Nb $_{2}$3/O$_{3}$)(PZT-PNN) thin films were prepared from corresponding metal organics partially stabilized with diethanolamine by the sol-gel spin coating method. Each mol rates of PT:PZ:PNN solutions were #1(50:40:10), #2(50:30:20), #3(45:35:20) and #4(40:40:20), respectively. The spin-coated PZT-PNN films were sintered at the temperature from 500.deg. C to 600.deg. C for crystallization. The P-E hysteresis curve was drawn by Sawyer-Tower circuit with PZT-PNN film. The coercive field and the remanent polarization of #4(40:40:20 mol%) PZT-PNN film were 28.8 kV/cm and 18.3 .mu.C/cm$^{2}$, respectively. Their dielectric constants were shown between 128 and 1120, and became maximum value in MPB(40:40:20 mol%). The leakage currents of PZT-PNN films were about 9.4x 10$^{-8}$ A/cm$^{2}$, and the breakdown voltages were about 0.14 and 1.1 MV/cm. The Curie point of #3(45:35:20 mol%, sintered at 600.deg.
