$Pb(Zr_{0.53}Ti_{0.47})O_3$ (PZT) was synthesized by a multiple wet dry process. Precipitates prepared from reaction between $ZrOCl_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ and $TiOCl_2$ and $NH_4OH$ in an aqueous solution was dried at $100^{\circ}C$, and calcined at $500^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$. The mixture mixed with PbO and as-dried or calcined $Zr_{0.53}Ti_{0.47}O_4$ (ZT) powders was calcined again at 700 and $800^{\circ}C$. Well crystallized ZT and PZT were formed at even $700^{\circ}C$. PZT piezoelectric ceramics of more than 98.5% in a relative density was obtained by sintering at as low as $900^{\circ}C$.

난소결성의 TiN에 방전 플라즈마 소결법을 적용하여 고밀도 TiN 소결체를 제조하였다. 제조된 TiN 시편의 소결특성 및 입성장 정도를 평가하였으며, 전자현미경을 이용하여 미세구조를 분석하였다. Milling 과정동안 잠입된 $Al_2$O$_3$는 1$700^{\circ}C$ 이상의 소결온도에서 TiN 분말과 반응하여 부분적으로 액상을 형성하여 물질이동을 가속화함으로써 치밀화가 저온에서 시작하도록 함으로써 궁극적으로 결정립성장 제어에 기여하는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 현상은 굽어진 TiN 결정입계와 결정입계 삼중점에 존재하는 $Al_2$O$_3$를 포함하는 2차 결정상 cluster의 존재로 설명되어진다.

Electrochemical reaction utilizing the semiconducting photoanodes can be applied to the photoelectrolysis of water to produce hydrogen. In this preliminary experiment, $TiO_2$ photoanodes were prepared by sintering anatase-$TiO_2$ powder at $1,250^{\circ}C$ and thermal oxidizing titanium plate at $850^{\circ}C$ in air and oxygen, respectively. Their surface structures were observed by XRD and optical microscope. I-E characteristics of thermally oxidized $TiO_2$ photoanode were also investigated under illuminated and dark conditions using 1 N and 0.1 N NaOH electrolyte solutions.

In order to increase the magnetic loss for electromagnetic(EM) wave absorption, the soft magnetic $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_3Cu_1$(at%) alloy strip was used as the basic material in this study. The melt-spun strip was pulverized using an attrition mill, and the pulverized flake-shaped powder was crystallized at $540^{\circ}C$ for 1h to obtain the optimum grain size. The Fe-based powder was mixed with 2 wt% $BaTiO_3$, $0.3{\sim}0.6$ wt% carbon black, and polymer-based binders for the improvement of electromagnetic wave absorption properties. The mixture powders were tape-cast and dried to form the absorption sheets. After drying at $100^{\circ}C$ for 1h, the sheets of 0.5 mm in thickness were made by rolling at $60^{\circ}C$, and cut into toroidal shape to measure the absorption properties of samples. The characteristics including permittivity, permeability and power loss were measured using a Network Analyzer(N5230A). Consequently, the properties of electromagnetic wave absorber were improved with the addition of both $BaTiO_3$ and carbon black powder, which was caused by the increased dielectric loss of the additive powders.

The ferroelectric properties of barium titanate strongly depend on its microstructure, in particular, grain size and distribution. During sintering, $BaTiO_3$ usually exhibits abnormal grain growth, which deteriorates considerably the ferroelectric properties. A typical technique to suppress the abnormal grain growth is the addition of dopants. Dopant addition, however, affects the ferroelectric properties and thus limits the application of $BaTiO_3$. Here, we report a simple but novel technique to prevent the abnormal grain growth of $BaTiO_3$ and to overcome the limitation of dopant use. The technique consists of stepwise sintering in a reducing atmosphere and in an oxidizing atmosphere. The materials prepared by the present technique exhibit uniform grain size and high dielectric properties. The technique should provide opportunities of having $BaTiO_3$-based materials with superior ferroelectric properties.

Barium titanate (BaTiO3) is one of the most important dielectric materials for the electronic devices, such as MLCC (Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor). The thickness of the dielectric thin film in MLCC has become thinner and reached about 0.8 ${\mu}m$. Further down sizing is required for the higher performance. For this reason, we should take into account for the size effect of Barium titanate powders. In this study, we demonstrated that size effect for BaTiO3 (0.2 ~ 0.5 ${\mu}m$, hydrothermal BT) could be estimates by using dielectric properties analysis together with the powder properties.

Characteristics of the sol-gel derived (Ba1-xPbx)TiO3 powders are compared with those of powders prepared by the calcining ofmixed oxides method (CMO) and molten salt synthesis method(MSS). The sol-gel derived powder has a higher surface area (50$m^2$/g) than those of CMO(3.8$m^2$/g) and MSS(11.5$m^2$/g) derived powders. In the sol-gel method, the (Ba1-xPbx)TiO3 was synthesized at $600^{\circ}C$ for 1hr, indicating that this method has a crystalline temperature 20$0^{\circ}C$-30$0^{\circ}C$ lowr than those of the CMO and MSS methods.

Hydrous titanium oxide particles with anatase phase were prepared from 0.05 mol TiCl4 solution using NH4HCO3 as precipitant by the droopping precipitant method. The sequential change of pH is completed by a sudden and steep increase in a pH value of the range of 6~7 to which the concentration of adsorbed OH- and H+ ions on TiO2 surface is equal. Rutile phase started precipitating with anatase phase as an increase of reaction temperature above 6$0^{\circ}C$ in aqueous 0.05mol TiCl4 solution and its specific surface area was found to decrease from 452 $m^2$/g($25^{\circ}C$) to 164$m^2$/g(8$0^{\circ}C$). Specific surface area decreased rapidly when anatase powders precipitated at 4$0^{\circ}C$ were heat-treated at temperature higher 40$0^{\circ}C$. FT-IR result confirmed that it was due to the decrease of OH species within hydrous titanium oxides. The loss of ethanol after illumination of the powder heated at $600^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$ for 4 h was 66 and 68.8%, respectively.
