Magnetic and Magneto-Optical properties of Co-based MnSbPt thin films prepared by R.F Sputtering were investigated. In this study, the optimum heat treatment condition was found to be $300^{\circ}C$-4hours under a $5\times10^{-6}$ Torr, but perpendicularly magnetized thin films could not be obtained. Coercive force showed maximum value of about 5000e at $250\AA$ Co thickness but the value is not enough for practical use of the thin film. Heat treated Co-based MnSbPt thin film shows 0.78 degree of Kerr rotation angle for 700nm of incident wavelength.

The effects of MnO$_2$ and Fe$_2$O$_3$ on the piezoelectric properties of 0.05PMN-0.451PT-0.499PZ ceramics were investigated. The addition of MnO$_2$ increased mechanical quality factor (Q$_m$) but decreased the dielectric constant (K$^{T}_{33}$) and compliance (S$^{E}_{11}$) of the specimens. These results indicated that MnO$_2$ behaves as an acceptor in 0.05MN-0.451PT-0.499PZ ceramics. The electromecanical coupling coefficient (K$_P$) of 0.05PMN-0.451PT-0.499PZ ceramics slightly increased with the addition of MnO$_2$ however, the enhancement of $K_P$ was insignificant. A small amount of Fe$_2$O$_3$ was added to enhance the $K_P$ of the 0.05PMN-0.451PT-0.499PZ + 0.5 wt% MnO$_2$ ceramics. The addition of Fe$_2$O$_3$ largely increased $K_P$ through the increase of the K$^{T}_{33}$ and the polarization. The mechanical quality factor of the specimens decreased with the addition of Fe$_2$O$_3$however, the reduction was negligible.

Significant improvements in the switching voltage distribution are required for the development of unipolar resistive memory devices using $MnO_x$ thin films. The $V_{set}$ of the as-grown $MnO_x$ film ranged from 1 to 6.2 V, whereas the $V_{set}$ of the oxygen-annealed film ranged from 2.3 to 3 V. An excess of oxygen in an $MnO_x$ film leads to an increase in $Mn^{4+}$ content at the $MnO_x$ film surface with a subsequent change in the $Mn^{4+}/Mn^{3+}$ ratio at the surface. This was attributed to the change in $Mn^{4+}/Mn^{3+}$ ratios at the $MnO_x$ surface and to grain growth. Oxygen annealing is a possible solution for improving the switching voltage distribution of $MnO_x$ thin films. In addition, crystalline $MnO_x$ can help stabilize the $V_{set}$ and $V_{reset}$ distribution in memory switching in a Ti/$MnO_x$/Pt structure. The improved uniformity was attributed not only to the change of the crystallinity but also to the redox reaction at the interface between Ti and $MnO_x$.

In this paper, effect of MnO$_2$ addition(0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5wt%) on the microstructure, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of [xPMW - (0.15-x) PNN] - [yPT-(0.85-y)PZ] (x=0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.05, y = 0.35, 0.40, ().425, 0.45, 0.5) were investigated. When Ti/Zr ratio was 1.0, dielectric and piezoelectric properties were highest value. With PMW 2mol%, dielectric constant, dielectric constant (d$\_$33/, d$\_$31/) and electromechanical coupling factor (kp, k$\_$31/) were highest values of 1995, 479, 186(x10$\^$-12/C/N), 0.61, 0.36, respectively. With the addition of MnO$_2$, dielectric constant, electromechanical coupling factor (kp, k$\_$31/) were decreased, but with 0.3wt% MnO$_2$, eletromechanical coupling factor was highest value of 0.63. With the addition of MnO$_2$, mechanical quality(Q$\_$m/ was increased.

The effect of $MnO_2$ addition in $0.05Pb(Sn_{0.5}Sb_{0.5})O_3-0.8PbZrO_3-0.15PbTiO_3$(0.05PSS-0.8PZ-0.15PT) ceramics on crystal structure and electrical properties were studied. The sintering temperature and time were $1230^{\circ}C{\sim}1270^{\circ}C$ and 2hr, respectively. Then crystal structure, dielectric and pyroelectric properties were investigated. All the poled specimens showed the lower dielectric constant and $tan{\delta}$ than the unpoled specimens. Dielectric constant at 1kHz of the 0.05PSS-0.8PZ-0.15PT(MnO2 0.3wt%) system specimen sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2hr were 270 and showed the lowest $tan{\delta}$ of 0.2% after poling of $2kV_{DC}/mm$ at $150^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. Pyroelectric coefficient was maximum value of $50nC/cm^2K$ and Curie temperature was $224^{\circ}C$.

In this study, the piezoelectric and dielectric properties and Temperature stability of resonant frequency with MnO$_2$doped 0.36Pb(Sc$_{1}$2/Nb$_{1}$2/)O$_3$- 0.25Pb(Ni$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$-0.39PbTiO$_3$(hereafter PSNNT) were investigated. The tetagonality of crystal structure was developed with increasing MnO$_2$additive content. With increasing MnO$_2$additive content, the electromechanical coupling factor and quality factor were increased. Electromechanical coupling k$_{p}$ and quality factor Q$_{m}$ at MnO$_2$doped with 2.0mol% were showed highest value of 55.6% and 252. In the case of specimen for MnO$_2$doped with 2mol%, temperature dependance of resonant frequency had a good properties.ies.

The effects of PT/PZ ratio variations in a modified PZT system on crystal structure and electrical properties were studied. $0.05Pb(Sn_{0.5}Sb_{0.5})O_3＋xPbTiO_3＋yPbZrO_3$＋0.4Wt% $MnO_2$(＝0.55PSS＋0.11PT＋0.84PZ＋0.4wt%$MnO_2$ ; x＋y=0.95) systems with variations of PT/PZ from 0.50/0.45 to 0.l1/0.84 were sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr, and then sintering density, crystal structure, dielctric, piezoelectric, pyroelectic and voltage responsity to infrared were investigated. Sintering density was increased from 7.52g/$\textrm {cm}^3$ to 7.82g/$\textrm {cm}^3$ with increasing PZ content. Dielectric constants at 1 KHz were decreased from 1147 to 193 with variation of PT/PZ from 0.50/0.45 to 0.l1/0.84 after poling of $4 KV_{DC}$/mm at $140^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes. All Dielectric losses at 1 KHz were less than 1 % in all specimens. $K_{p}$ was increased near to 1 of PT/PZ, and maximun value of 48.2 % was .at 0.45/0.50. Pyroelectric coefficient of PT/PZ with 0.l1/0.84 was maximun value, 0.0541 C/$\m^2$K, and voltage responsity to infrared was 1.5 V.
