In this study, $(Na_{0.525}K_{0.443}Li_{0.037})(Nb_{0.883}Sb_{0.08}Ta_{0.037})O_3+0.10\;wt%Bi_2O_3+0.35\;wt%B_2O_3$ ceramics were prepared by conventional soild-state sintering process. The specimens were sintered at temperature range from $1,060^{\circ}C$ to $1,100^{\circ}C$. XRD (X-ray diffractron), SEM (scanning electron microscope) were used to analyze the crystal structure and microstructural sproperties of specimens. And also, $T_{O-T}$, TC were observed by the mesurement of temperature dependence of dielectric constant. Excellect physical properties of the piezoelectric constant $d_{33}$= 170 pC/N, electromechanical coupling factor kp= 0.312, Tc= $315^{\circ}C$ were obtained, respectively, from the specimen sintered at $1,080^{\circ}C$.

Solid electroyte nasion was synthesized by the optimized solid state reaction minimizing the volume fraction of secondary $ZrO_2$ and glassy phases. To compensate for the evaporation of Na and P during heat-treatment, excess Na and P were added to the starting composition $Na_{1+x} Zr_2 Si_x P_{d-x} O_{12}$ (x=2.1). Phases pure nasicon comparable in volume fraction to the one obtaied from sol-gel process were synthesized after the reaction at $1100~1150^{\circ}C$,$ P_{O2}>=0.1-0.15 $$ZrO_2$ increased with the heat-treatment time due to the decomposition of nasicon phase and that of glassy phase increased as partial oxygen pressure decreased. The synthesized nasion showed a good electrical conductivity of $-1{\times}10^{-2}({\omega}{\cdot}cm)^{-1}$ at $350^{\circ}C$.

In this work, [$Pb(Mg_{1/2}W_{1/2})_{0.03}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_x(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})_{0.97-x}O_3-BiFeO_3$] (x=0.02 to 0.12) composition ceramics were fabricated by the conventional soild state reaction method and their microstructure and piezoelectric properties were investigated according to PNN substitution. The addition of small amount of $BiFeO_3$, $Li_2CO_3$, and $CaCO_3$ were used in order to decrease the sintering temperature of the ceramics. The XRD (x-ray diffraction patterns) of all ceramics exhibited a perovskite structure. The sinterability of PMW-PNN-PZT-BF ceramics was remarkably improved using liquid phase sintering of $CaCO_3$, $Li_2CO_3$. However, it was identified from of the X-ray diffraction patterns that the secondary phase formed in grain boundaries decreased the piezoelectric properties. According to the substitution of PNN, the crystal structure of ceramics is transformed gradually from a tetragonal to rhombohedral phase. The x=0.10 mol PNN-substituted PMW-PNN-PZT-BF ceramics sintered at $920^{\circ}C$ showed the optimum values of piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$), piezoelectric figure of merit($d_{33{\cdot}}g_{33}$), planar piezoelectric coupling coefficient($k_p$) and density : $d_{33}=566$ [pC/N], $g_{33}=29.28[10^{-3}mV/N]$, $d_{33{\cdot}}g_{33}=16.57[pm^2/N]$, $k_p=0.61$, density=7.82 [$g/cm^3$], suitable for duplex ultrasonic sensor application.

In this paper, in order to develop optimum composition ceramics with excellent piezoelectric properties, $(Na_{0.525}K_{0.443}Li_{0.037})(Nb_{0.823}Sb_{0.08}Ta_{0.037})O_3+0.3wt%Bi_2O_3+0.4wt%Fe_2O_3$ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were synthesized by conventional soild-state method. The calcination temperature of columbite precursors were fabricated at temperature range from $950^{\circ}C$ to $1,150^{\circ}C$ and sintering aids with low melting point were added to densify these ceramics. Effect of calcination temperature on dielectric and piezoelectric properties of ceramics were investigated. the ceramics with B-site columbite precursors at temperature of $1,100^{\circ}C$ obtained the optimal values of $d_{33}=272$ [pC/N], $k_p=0.51$, $Q_m=102$, ${\varepsilon}_r=978$.

$PrBa_{0.9}Sr_{0.1}Co_2O_{5+{\delta}}$ oxide was synthesized by soild state reaction method. Dense ceramic membrane was prepared using as-prepared powder by pressing and sintering at $1250^{\circ}C$. XRD result of membrane showed double perovskite structure. Leakage and oxygen permeation test were conducted on the membrane sealed by pyrex ring as a sealing material. Oxygen permeation was measured in the temperature range from 850 to $950^{\circ}C$. The oxygen flux of $PrBa_{0.9}Sr_{0.1}Co_2O_{5+{\delta}}$ membrane was increased with the temperature from 0.15 to $0.32mL/cm^2{\cdot}min$.
