Dielectric properties of Ba1-$\chi$Sr$\chi$Ti1-yCayO3-y ceramics, where Sr and Ca were doped to Ba-site and Ti-site within the range of 0 x 0.24 and 0 y 0.05, respectively, were investigated. The substitution of Ca for Ti, which maintained the high resistivity of these formulations after sintering in a reducing atmosphere, was confirmed. Ca addition decreased the tetragonality c/a, increased the unit cell volume, and lowered Curie temperature, which were attributed to the occupancy of Ca2+ ions on Ti-sites. The lowering of Curie temperature by Ca addition was affected by the substitution of Sr for Ba-site; within 2 mol% of Ca, Curie temperature was lowered at a rate of 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 16$^{\circ}C$ per mol% of Ca at x=0 and x=0.08, respectively. Whereas the resistivity of the formulations without Ca was reduced to 107 {{{{ OMEGA }}cm, when sintered at low oxygen partial pressure of 10-9 MPa, the resistivity value higher than 1011 {{{{ OMEGA }}cm was maintained for the formulations containing Ca more than 0.5 mol%. Dielectric loss factor, tan$\delta$, was about 1% for most formulations.

In this paper, in order to develop the low temperature sintering ceramics for multilayer piezoelectric transformer, PMN-PZT ceramics were manufactured with the variations of sintering times, and their microstructural, piezoelectric and dielectric properties were investigated. To manufacture multilayer piezoelectric transformer, the low temperature sintering composition is need, hence, $Li_2CO_3$ and $Bi_2O_3$ were used as sintering aids and the specimens were sintered during 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes, respectively. At the specimen sintered during 90 minute, mechanical quality factor(Qm), electromechanical coupling factor(kp) and dielectric constant were showed the optimum values of 2356, 0.504 and 1266, respectively. All the specimens showed tetragonality phase, and pyrochlore phase was not shown.

Effects of MnO2 addition ranged from 0.0wt% to 5.0wt% on the microstructure and dielectric and piezoelectric properties of the Pb(Zr0.52 Ti0.48)O3 Ceramics have been investigated. The solubility limit of MnO2 in Pb(Zr0.52 Ti0.48)O3 is about 0.5wt%, and MnO2 as a valence state of Mn3+ is substituted for (Zr, Ti) lattice site in PZT solid-solution. The addition of MnO2 up to 0.5wt% in Pb(Zr0.52 Ti0.48)O3 brings increase of density, but decreased of grain size and tetragonality. Dielectric constant slightly decreases, but both coupling factor(Kp) and mechanical quality factor(Qm) increase with the addition of MnO2. However, excess amount of MnO2 addition more than 0.75wt% results in rapid decrease of resistance. Dielectric constant and tan $\delta$ increase due to the second phase and inhomogeneous Mn distribution.

The $(Pb_{0.9}Ca_{0.1})TiO_3$[PCT] thin films have been deposited by sol-gel processing on Si-wafer and ITO glass substrates. The creak-free films have been obtained by rapid thermal annealing at $700^{\circ}C$ for 10 minute and characterized by XRD, SEM and electrical measurements. Their tetragonality c/a was 1.041 and grain size was $0.15{\sim}0.2{\mu}m$. When the electrode system of sample was Au/PCT/ITO(MFM) and film thickness was $0.8{\mu}m$, dielectric constant, dielectric loss and Curie temperature were about 149, 0.085 and $449^{\circ}C$ at 10kHz, respectively. Spontaneous polarization $P_s$, remnant polarization $P_r$ and coercive field $E_c$ were about $5.29{\mu}C/cm^2$, $4.15{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 82kV/cm calculated by hysteresis loop.

The structureal, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of Pb[(Sb$\_$1/2/Nb$\_$1/2/)$\_$x/-(Ni$\_$1/3/Nb$\_$2/3/)$\_$0.15-x/-(Zr$\_$y/Ti$\_$1-y/)$\_$0.85/]O$_3$(x=0∼0.05, y=0.47∼0.52) ceramics were investigated with the substitution of Pb(Sb$\_$1/2/Nb$\_$1/2/)O$_3$(abbreviated PSN) and the Zr/Ti ratio. At Zr/Ti ratio of 50/50, tetragonality was decreased and grain size abruptly decreased with the increase of PSN substitution. Curie temperature was decreased and dielectric constant increased with the substitution of PSN. The coercive field increased and remnant polarization decreased with the substitution of PSN. Electromechanical coupling factor(k$\_$p/) showed the highest value of 0.622 at 1mol% PSN, but mechanical quality factor(Q$\_$m/) showed the minimum value at that composition. Dielectric constant and electromechanical coupling factor with the Zr/Ti ratio showed maximum values at Zr/Ti ratio of 50/50 and mechanical quality factor showed minimum values near the Zr/Ti ratio of 50/50.

폴리머/세라믹 복합체는 내장형 캐패시터(embedded capacitor)의 유전 재료로 많은 관심을 불러 일으키고 있다. 본 연구는 BaTiO$_3$분말의 크기와 함량이 에폭시/BaTiO$_3$복합체 캐패시터의 유전 상수와 누설전류에 미치는 영향에 대해 살펴보고 이에 대해 고찰하고자 하였다. BaTiO$_3$분말이 67vo1% 함유된 Epoxy/BaTiO$_3$composite 필름의 유전상수는 전반적으로 사용한 BaTiO$_3$분말의 크기가 커짐에 따라 증가하였다. 이것은 입자의 크기가 증가함에 따른 입자의 유전상수의 증가 때문이며 XRD 분석을 통해 입자의 크기가 증가함에 따라 tetragonality가 증가함을 확인하였다. 복합체 필름의 누설전류도 또한 사용한 입자의 크기가 커짐에 따라 증가하였으며 이는 분말의 크기가 증가함에 따라 단위길이 당 입자의 수가 감소하는 것으로, 단위 길이 당 입자의 수가 감소하여 전류의 흐름을 방해하는 입자/폴리머/입자 계면의 수가 감소하기 때문이다. 분말의 함량에 따른 유전상수는 unimodal과 bimodal의 경우 각각 73vo1%와 80vo1%에서 최대 값을 나타냈으며 그 이상에서는 감소하는 것이 관찰되었는데 이는 과량의 분말이 조밀 충전을 깨고 필름의 밀도를 낮추기 때문이었다. 누설전류의 경우 unimodal과 bimodal 각각에 대해 73vo1%와 80vo1%에서 급격한 증가를 관찰 할 수 있었으며 이는 percolation 현상의 발생에 의해 입자와 입자간에 접촉이 이루어져 BaTiO$_3$분말을 따라 전류가 잘 흐를 수 있는 conduction path가 형성 되기 때문이다.

PZT(Pb(Zr, Ti)$O_3$ 압전세라믹스는 뛰어난 압전 특성과 강유전 특성을 가지고 있어서 현재 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 PZT세라믹스는 큐리온도 이상에서 그 특성을 잃게 되고 높은 온도에서의 응용이 제한된다. 따라서 높은 큐리온도를 가지는 압전체를 개발하기 위한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. $PbTiO_3$의 경우에는 $Bi(Zn_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})$, $BiFeO_3$등의 Bi계 세라믹스를 치환하면서 큐리온도가 올라가는 결과가 보고되고 있다. 하지만 이것은 PZT세라믹스 보다 압전 및 유전 특성이 상당히 낮다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 $(1-x)PbZrO_3-xPbTiO_3$조성에 Bi(Me)$O_3$(Me:Zn, Ti, Fe, Al)를 치환하여 압전특성 및 강유전 상전이 온도를 조사하였다. 모든 시편들은 고상반응법으로 제조하였고, 제조한 시편으로 조성에 따른 압전특성 및 유전특성의 변화를 측정하였다. 그리고 이를 통해 큐리온도는 PZT의 MPB조성근처에서 Bi계 세라믹의 치환은 $T_C$가 낮아 졌으나, Tetragonal 상을 가지고 있는 Ti-rich인 조성에서는 $T_C$가 높아지는 것을 관찰하였다.

Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3 and (1-x)Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3-xPbTiO3 ceramics were prepared by the precalcination method. Their structural and dielectric properties were investigated. The amount of perovsikte phase was increased by the precalcination and the dielectric properties of ceramics were improved. Additions of PbTiO3 were found to increase the tetragonality (c/a) of crystal lattice and Tc. In the middle region of (1-x)Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3-xPbTiO3, duffuse phase transitions (DPT) were observed.

The effects of substituting Zn+2 for Ni+2 ion on dielectric and piezoelectric prooperties of Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-PZT ceramics were investigated. With increasing Zn2+ contents the tetragonality was appreciably enhanced and the grain size decreased. Both Curie temperature and thermal stability were increased with increase in Zn2+ contents since the Zn+2 partial substition for Ni+2 could form solid solution in almost range of the composition investigated. Piezoelectric prooperties showed the maximum($\varepsilon$ T/$\varepsilon$0=5014, kp=0.56, d31=250$\times$10-12m/V) in 4.5Pb(Zn1//3Nb2/3)O3-40.5Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-55PZT composition sintered at 125$0^{\circ}C$ and then decreased again due to the phase boundary movement for tetragonal phase of the solid solution of Zn2+ amount.
