The microwave dielectric properties and the microstructures as a mole fraction of (1-x)ZnNb$_2$O$_{6}$-xPb$_{5}$Nb$_4$O$_{15}$ ceramics with CuV$_2$O$_{6}$, Sb$_2$O$_3$ and glass(ZNPN ceramics) was investigated. 0.98ZN-0.02PN ceramics containing 1.5 wt% CuV$_2$O$_{6}$ 1.0 wt% Sb$_2$O$_3$ and 1.0 wt% glass had a dielectric constant($\varepsilon$$_{r}$) of 23, Qxf$_{o}$ value of 15000 and TCF(Temperature Coefficient of resonance Frequency) of -25 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ and it is possible to be co-fired with Ag electrode at 90$0^{\circ}C$. As sintered temperature increases over 90$0^{\circ}C$ the grain size of ZNPN ceramics was increasing for growth and it has poor co-fired properties with Ag electrode.e.ctrode.e.e.

Nonohmic properties of ZnO ceramics with various small amounts of additives were studied in relation to experimental methods, additive contant and sintaring temperature. The kinds of additives used to following chemicals were basic additives ($0.5Bi_2O_3$, $0.3BaCO_3$, $0.5MnCO_3$, $0.5Cr_2O_3$, $0.1KNO_3$), $TiO_2$ and $Al(OH)_3$. Expecially, this study has focused on the effectsof $TiO_2$ and $Al(OH)_3$ in ZnO ceramics with the basic additives. SEM studies indicated that the addition of TiO2 promoted grain growth but retarded grain growth with the addition of $Al(OH)_3$. Also, in the case of calcination of ZnO with $TiO_2$ and ZnO with $Al(OH)_3$ previously, grain size of ZnO with $TiO_2$ was larger and that of ZnO with Al(OH)3 was smaller in comparison to the case with out calcination. From the viewpoint of nonohmic exponent and nonohimic resistance, electrical characteristics of ZnO, $TiO_2$ and the basic additives was more effective than that of ZnO, $Al(OH)_3$ and the basic additives. Nonohmic exponent and nonohmic resistance of ZnO, $TiO_2$ and the basic additives was 11-13 and 40-65 respectively.

The electrical properties of the praseodymium-based ZnO varistor ceramics, which are composed of Zn-Pr-Co-Cr-Dy oxides were investigated with $Dy_2O_3$ amount. The average grain size of varistor ceramics was greatly decreased from 18.2 to 4.6 pm with increasing $Dy_2O_3$ amount. The calculated nonlinear exponent$({\alpha})$ in varistor ceramics without $DY_2O_3$ was only 4.9, whereas the a value of the varistors with $DY_2O_3$ was abruptly increased in the range of 48.8 to 58.6. In particular, the maximum value of a was obtained by doping of 1.0 mol% $DY_2O_3$, reaching 58.6. The measured leakage current$(I_l)$ value in varistors without $DY_2O_3$ was $85.45{\mu}A$, whereas the $I_{\ell}$ value of the varistors with $DY_2O_3$ was very abruptly decreased in the range of 1.10 to $0.12{\mu}A$. In particular, the minimum value of $I_{\ell}$ was obtained by doping of 0.5 mol% $DY_2O_3$, reaching $0.12{\mu}A$. The tan $\delta$ varied in V-shape, with minimum 2.28% at 0.5 mol% $DY_2O_3$. The donor concentration and the density of interface states were decreased in the range of $(4.66{\sim}0.25){\times}10^{18}cm^3$ and $(5.70{\sim}1.39){\times}10^{12}/cm^2$, respectively, as $DY_2O_3$ amount is increased.

Gas sensing properties of P-N contact ceramics, composed of ZnO and CuO pairs sintered at different temperatures, were studied for 1% CO gas. Between 10$0^{\circ}C$ and 32$0^{\circ}C$ temperature range, it was observed that 2-probe current-voltage (I-V) characteristics, temperature and voltage dependence of sensivities were dependant largely upon ZnO samples. Pairs including a ZnO sample sintered at 110$0^{\circ}C$ showed maximum senitivity of 9 and 13 depending upon counterpart CuO samples, at 260~29$0^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, pairs including a ZnO samples sintered at 90$0^{\circ}C$ showed increasing sensitivity within in the measured temperature range and maximum sensitivities were about 4.

Dielectric properties and the stabilization of perovskite phase for the (1-y)Pb(Mg(1-x)/3Znx/3Znx/3Nb2/3)O3-yBaTiO3 ((1-y)PM1-xZxN-yBT) ceramics have been investigated as a function of amount of x and y. In the (1-y)PM0.6Z0.4N-yBT ceramics, the amount of pyrochlore phae was decreased by the addition of 2 mol% BT and the dielectric constant was increased. However, the dielectric constant decreased with further addition of BT even though pyrochlore phase was decreased. Dielectric prooperties in (1-y)PM0.6Z0.4N-yBT ceracmis were affected by the character of the BT rather than the amount of pyrochlore phase. The phase transitions were broadened and phase transition temperatures were lowered by the increase of BT contents.

The 0.8Ba($Zn_{1/3}Ta_{2/3})O_3$-0.2Ba($Co_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ ceramics were prepared by conventional mixed oxide method. The structural properties of the 0.8BZT-0.2BCN ceramics with the sintering temperature were investigated by XRD and SEM. The 0.8BZT-0.2BCN ceramics had a superstructure reflection plane of (100), (200). Increasing the sintering temperature. the ordering parameter of B-site atoms were increased. The lattice constant of 0.8BZT-0.2BCN ceramics was 3.97${\AA}$. Increasing the sintering temperature, the average gram sizes were increased. In the case of the 0.8BZT-0.2BCN ceramics sintered at 1500$^{\circ}C$, the average grain size and bulk density were 1.56${\mu}m$, 6.93$g/cm^3$, respectively.

In this paper, to develop the ceramics with high $d_{33}$ and high $Q_m$ for ultrasonic transducer applications, $0.10Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.07Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.83Pb(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})_{0.83}O_3$ (PNN-PMN-PZT) ceramics were sintered at $940^{\circ}C$ using $CuO-Li_2CO_3-Bi_2O_3$ (CLBO) as a sintering aid by a traditional solid-state technique. The influence of zinc oxide additive on the physical properties of the prepared ceramics were systematically investigated. The R-T (rhombohedral-tetragonal) phase coexistence was found in the ceramics without zinc oxide additive and with increasing amounts of ZnO additive, the specimens showed a tetragonal phase. The formation of a liquid phase between ZnO and $Bi_2O_3$ contributed significantly to the grain growth of specimens. For the 0.1 wt% ZnO ceramics, the optimal physical properties of $d_{33}=370pC/N$, ${\varepsilon}_r=1,344$, $k_p=0.621$, and $Q_m=1,523$ were obtained.

This experiments were focused on a modification of mechamical properties and structure in porous aluminum titanate ceramics by new additives which have been not researched yet. These were consisted of four kinds of additives i.e. Bi2O3, FeO, ZnO and NiO by addition amount of 1 wt% and 5 wt% respectively. The addition of Bi2O3 retarded a degree of syntehsis of aluminum titanate and accelerated in FeO, ZnO, NiO additives. Also, the most effective accelerator in synthesis of alunium titanate was FeO. A additives for the most effective of modification of microstructure, sharp distribtion of pore size and mechanical proterties was on ZnO addition and showed the lowest average pore size and narrowed pore size distribution. In order to improve of microstructure and pore size distribution in porous aluminum titanate ceramics was desired the addition amount of 1 wt% compare to 5 wt%.

To co-fire with commercial LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic) materials at $850^{\circ}C{\sim}880^{\circ}C$, different contents of $B_2O_3$ were added to the $Bi_2O_3-ZnO-Nb_2O_5$ (BZN) ceramics. According to the test results, the cubic phase of BZN was transformed into orthorhombic in all the test materials. $BiNbO_4$ phase was formed in test materials with $2{\sim}5wt%$ of $B_2O_3$ addition. The phase transformation of cubic BZN was controlled during the synthesis process with excess ZnO content. The Cubic and orthorhombic phases of BZN could coexist and be sintered densely at $850^{\circ}C/2hr$.
