The melting temperature and critical temperature(Tc) of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ with deferent content impurities of PbO and $BaPbO_3$ were studied. When the PbO was used as addition in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$, although the melting point could be reduced, the superconductivity(the transition width, ${\Delta}T_c$) became poor. From the XRD pattern of the sintered mixture of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and PbO it was known that there is a reaction between $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and PbO, and the product is $BaPbO_3$. In the process of the reaction the superconducting phase of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ was decreased and in the sample $BaPbO_3$ became the main phase. Therefore the superconductivity was reduced. $BaPbO_3$ was chosen as the impurity for the comparative study. The single phase BaPbO3 was synthesized by the simple way from both mixtures of $BaPbO_3$ and PbO, $BaPbO_3\;and\;PbO_2$. Deferent contents of $BaPbO_3$(10%, 20%, 30%) were added in the $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$. By the phase analysis in the XRD patterns it was proved that there werenot reactions between $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and $BaPbO_3$. When $BaPbO_3$ was used as impurity in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ the superconductivity was much better than PbO as impurity in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$. But the melting point of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ with $BaPbO_3$ could not be found when the temperature was lower than $1000^{\circ}C$ in the DTA measurement.

Effect of PbO addition on sintering and piezoelectric properties at 0.45Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.40PbTiO3-0.15PbZrO3 composition which is tetragonal phase was investigated. In this composition, Porosity and dielectric constant were increased with excess PbO addition, but Kp and d31 was not changed. These variation of physical properties could be interpreted as composition change of solid grains from tetragonal to MPB region due to amount of PbO-rich liquid changing.

The effects of 0 to 6 mol% excess 91PbO-9WO3 addition on the microstructure and the dielectric pro-perties in 40Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-30PbTiO3-30Pb(Mg1/2W1/2)O3 ternary system were investigated. Excess 91PbO-9WO3 addition enhanced densification at relatively lower temperature due to the formation of liquid phase. The dielectric constant of the specimen with standard composition was 16,400 and that of specimen with 1 mol% excess additive was the maximum of 18,500. And more than 2 mol% excess addition decreased dielec-tric constant. Specimens with 2~4 mol% 91PbO-9WO3 addition showed dual peak maxima in the tem-perature dependence of dielectric constant. In the specimens which have more than 5 mol% excess addition a new phase with W-rich composition was formed at grain boundary.

The melting temperature and critical temperature (Tc) of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$Ox with deferent content impurities of PbO and BaPbO$_3$ were studied. When the PbO was used as addition in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$Ox, although the melting point could be reduced, the superconductivity (the transition wide, ΔTc) became poor. From the XRD pattern of the sintered mixture of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$Ox and PbO it was known that there is a reaction between YBa$_2$Cu$_3$Ox and PbO, and the product is BaPbO$_3$. In the process of the reaction the superconducting phase of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$Ox was decreased and in the sample BaPbO$_3$became the main phase. Therefore the superconductivity was reduced.

Effects of PbTiO3 addition on dielectric properties and extent of PbO loss in Nd-doped Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 system were investigated. As the proportion of dopping increased, the phase transition temperature shifted to low region, and the dielectric constant at room temperature decreased rapidly. But as the proportion of PbTiO3 increased, the phase transition temperature shifted to high retion, and the dielectric constant at room temperature increased. The substitution of Nd3+ for Pb2+ decreased the amount of PbO evaporation, therefore the sample sintered well in case of only 1 mole% adding excess PbO.

The effect of excess PbO(0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 mol%) on grain growth and densification of (65)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-(35)PbTiO3 [mol%] ceramics has been investigaetd. With increasing the amount of excess PbO and sintering time, densities of sintered samples decreased gradually. The samples containing less than 1 mol% of PbO showed normal grain growth behavior, however abnormal grain growth was observed to occur in the samples with more than 2 mol% of PbO. In the samples with more than 2 mol% of PbO, the number of abnormal grains decreased and thus the average grain size became smaller with increasing the amount of excess PbO. These results demonstrated that the abnormal grain growth started to occur when a critical amount of excess PbO was added to a (65)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-(35)PbTiO3 sample. Since PMN-PT grains in a liquid matrix were angular, the observed abnormal grain growth was explained to proceed through the two dimensional nucleation process.

It is investigated that the determination of the correlation between the change of microstructure and electrical properties. Yttria is added to the compositiojn of rhombohedral region in Pb(Mg1/3Nb2./3)O3-PbTiO3-PbZrO3 ternary system. Average grian size, lattice parameters and distribution of yttrium are characterized by XRD, SEM and EDS. Electrical properties are determined by measurement of Curie temperature, piezoelectric properties and hysteresis loops. The results are as follows; 1. Both lattice parameters, a and ${\alpha}$, are changed by addition of yttria to the composition of rhomboheadral region in Pb(Mg1/3Nb2./3)O3-PbTiO3-PbZrO3 ternary system and Curie temperature is proportional to the values at (90-${\alpha}$).

Pyroelectric properties of $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-PbTiO_3$ ceramics prepared by the columbite precursor method have been investigated as a function of the sintering temperature in the range of $1000^{\circ}C$ to $1250^{\circ}C$. The $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-PbTiO_3$ ceramics show typical relaxor ferroelectric behavior. The optimum condition for obtaining samples with high densities and improved pyroelectric properties occur at a sintering temperature of $1250^{\circ}C$ and sintering times of 2 hours. The $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3}O_3-PbTiO_3$ ceramics show the possibility for pyroelectric sensors with pyrostat.
