Barium titanate ($BaTiO_3$) particles were prepared by spray pyrolysis from spray solution containing organic additives. The effects of the type and amount of organic precursors on the crystal structure and morphology of the $BaTiO_3$ particles were investigated. It was found that the morphology of $BaTiO_3$ particles before and after calcination depended on the type of organic additives such as citric acid, ethylene glycol and polyethylene glycol. Among these organic additives, citric acid was the most effective to prepare $BaTiO_3$ particles with nano-structured morphology consisting with uniform size nanometer particles after calcination. It was also found that the phase transformability of the metastable cubic phase to the tetragonal one during calcination could be improved by increasing the content of citric acid in the spray solution. As a result, $BaTiO_3$ particles prepared from spray solution containing high concentration of citric acid had good tetragonality, uniform and fine size, and high BET surface area after calcination. $BaTiO_3$ particles prepared by spray pyrolysis had nanometer size and uniform morphology after simple ball milling process.

We have prepared organophilic inorganic particles and polyimide (PI) nanocomposite having excellent thermal stability and high dielectric constant that can be used for electronic application such as capacitor. We have chosen barium titanate (BT), a high dielectric constantmaterial and its surface was coated with nylon 6 to improve the affinity with PI. The FT-IR and TEM studies showed that the organophilic inorganic particle (BTN) has a polymer shell with thickness of 5 nm. We have suggested that it is possible to control the thickness of coating surface and also indicated the relationship between the ratio of inside and outside radius of BTN and the weight fraction of BT. The PI nanocomposite films based on poly(amic acid) and BTN were prepared by cyclodehydration reaction. The homogeneous dispersion of BTN in PI matrix was identified by using SEM. We have investigated the effect of BTN content on the coefficient of thermal stability, integral procedural decomposition temperature (IPDT), and dielectric constant of PI nanocomposite films.

Thulium oxide-doped barium titanate ceramics for MLCCs with perovskite structure were prepared by a sintering process at $1320^{\circ}C$ for 2 h in a reduced atmosphere. The effect of $Tm_2O_3$ addition on dielectric property of barium titanate ceramics has been studied in terms of their microstructures. Moreover, the phase identification of the dielectric specimens was conducted to define the secondary phase (pyrochlore). The specimen doped with 1 mol% $Tm_2O_3$ exhibited the highest dielectric constant. However, the dielectric constants of specimens with more than 2 mol% $Tm_2O_3$ to $BaTiO_3$ were the lower values than that of 1 mol% doped one. The grain size and the formation of pyrochlore phase associated with the dielectric properties were examined through morphology development and the structural analysis. Furthermore, these data were compared with the property of the dielectric material doped with $Er_2O_3$. It could be concluded that the dielectric property of ceramic capacitors were attributed to the change of pyrochlore phase and the tetragonality of $BaTiO_3$ with doping.

Sol-gel processing of BaTiO$_3$ ceramics doped with La(0.01-1.00 at.%) were prepared from metal barium, titanium n-butoxide and lanthanum isopropoxide. Characterization of the sol-gel-derived powder using XRD, SEM is also reported. The obtained results suggested that insulator to semiconductor transition for highly donor-doped barium titanate was closely related to the incorporation of donor into the grains and to the resultant grain size, which were significantly affected by the sinterability of BaTiO$_3$ powders and sintering conditions used.

The aging of permittivity of a barium titanate dielectrics doped with La$_{2}$O$_{3}$ under zero and low DC field has been studied. The aging rate was decreased as the amount of La$_{2}$O$_{3}$ addition is increased to 3 mole%. The zero field aging rate of barium titahate doped with La$_{2}$O$_{3}$. 3TiO$_{2}$ was similar to that doped with La$_{2}$O$_{3}$.5V/mil DC field aging rate of La$_{2}$O$_{3}$.3TiO$_{2}$ doped sample, howeve, was lowered to that of La$_{2}$O$_{3}$ doped sample. When the phase transformation is occured from the paraelectric state to the ferroelectric state, 90.deg. domains are mucleated in order that the system becomes thermodynamically more stable. It is concluded that the aging phenomenon is occured as the dielectric constant is decreasing by the nucleation and growth of 90.deg. domains.

BaTiO3 ceramics doped with 0.1 to 4.0 mol% Nb2O5 were prepared by conventional solid stage sintering process, so as to investigate the effect of the amount of Nb2O5 on the dielectric properties and complex impedance patterns of barium titanates. From the measurement of capacitance, we found that the dielectric constant of BaTiO3 samples with 1 mol% or more Nb2O5 remained approximately constant around room temperature with values higher than 2500. In this paper, the effect of impurity content as well as temperature on complex impedance patterns was discussed in detail. In particular, the grain and grain boundary behavior of samples which showed PTCR characteristics was discussed in terms of measuring temperature.

When looked upon as a polycrystalline, ceramics have two basic differences from a single crystal. One is that there exist grain boundaries, the other is that the crystal axes of each small crystal are arranged in random directions. But the crystal axes fo small crystals which compose ceramics may be made to have the tendency of being arranged in a specific direction. This is called that the crystal axes are oriented. The degree of the direction arrangement of the crystal axes is called orientation. In order to orient the crystal axes effectively, the fiberous barium titanates were made through KDC method and the ion exchange method. And then they were arranged through pressing, doctor blade, and syringe. As the result of Lotgering evaluation, the sample oriented through syringe showed the highest orientation. After sintering, though the most particles that had been fiberous shaped became global shape viewed through SEM, the orientation of the crystals was reinforced by means of sintering.

We have studied the effects of solvents and additives in the precursor solutions on the characteristics of barium strontium titanate (BST) thin films. The solution having two solvents, ie. acetic acid for barium acetate and strontium acetate and 2-methoxyethanol for titanium isopropoxide and also having an additive of ethylene glycol shows good stability and remains homogeneous even after a month of ageing. It produces excellent BST thin film without cracks. Dielectric constant, loss tangent at 10KHz and leakage current density at 3V of the BST (70/30) thin film made from this solution are 339, 0.052 and 13.3 ${\mu}\textrm{A}$/$\texmrm{cm}^2$, respectively.

"Electrical Properties of Barium Titanates with Addition Sb2O3." PTC BaTiO3 in low resistance at room temperature was prepatred. Al2O3, SiO2 and TiO2 were doped with a view to improving reproduction. Sb2O3 was doped as impurity in order to control of resistivity of the specimens. The relations between the amount of Sb3O3 and electrical properties wereinvestigated.
