SrBi$_{2}$Ta$_{2}$O$_{9}$ (SBT) ferroelectric thin films for nonvolatile memory were prepared on Pt/Ti/SiO$_{2}$/Si and RuO$_{2}$/SiO$_{2}$/Si substrates by RF magnetron sputtering. The dependences of crystalline and electrical properties on the lower electrode type(Pt and RuO$_{2}$) and the annealing temperatures were investigated. SBT films regardless of their electrode types showed typeical Bi layered peroviskite crystal structures. The crystalline quality of as-deposited SBT films was improved by the rapid thermal annealing at 650.deg. C for 30 sec. The remanetn polarization of 2Pr (Pr+-Pr-) of the annealed SBT films deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO$_{2}$/Si substrates were about 11 .mu.C/cm$^{2}$ and 3 .mu.C/cm$^{2}$, respectively. The leakage currents at 3 V bias voltage were about 0.8 .mu.A/cm$^{2}$ for SBT/ Pt/Ti/SiO$_{2}$/Si and about 1 .mu.A/cm$^{2}$ for SBT/RuO$_{2}$/SiO$_{2}$/Si sample. SBT films annealed at 650 .deg. C showed no degradation in Pr values after 10$^{11}$ polarization switching cycles, indicating good fatigue properties. In addition, for SBT samples deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO$_{2}$/Si, Pr values increased to more than that of initial state, suggesting the increament of leakage current caused by repeated polarization.

This paper presents the design of a palm-sized metamaterial antenna system having reconfigurable polarization as well as dual-band characteristics. Basically, three antennas are laid by 45 degrees in order and excited by a compact metamaterial dual-band power-divider of the in-phase outputs, and the radiated fields of the antennas are mixed to turn the vector of the polarization to another. The validity of the proposed method is verified by observing the in-phase outputs from the odd-numbered power-dividing device for both 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz, and checking the changeable polarization with the antenna gain over 2 dBi for all the polarizations.

This paper presents a wideband technique of impedance and axial-ratio bandwidth which uses the stacked planar array structure through optimum design of sub-polarization generating sections and parasitic patch. So, the effect of the dual-resonance characteristic can contribute to the bandwidth expansion of single fed planar array antenna using circular polarization which doesn\`t hire previous bandwidth expansion technique. The antenna can be used as a dual-band antenna by adjusting the resonance frequencies as well, and then the antenna is designed and fabricated in the frequency band of domestic satellite-TV service. This antenna has the performance of 9.7 % impedance bandwidth and 24 dBi of antenna gain. And it has also 2.8 % and 1.4 % of 3 dB Axial-ratio bandwidth at 11.4 GHz and 11.8 GHz respectively.

In this paper, dual-polarized 2${\times}$2 array antenna is designed and fabricated for the polarization diversity applications in wireless LAN system. For the improved bandwidth and isolation characteristics, the aperture coupled feeding and the L-shaped probe feeding are employed for each polarization. The measured bandwidths of the fabricated antenna are 210MHz for aperture coupled feeding and 280MHz for L-shaped probe feeding. The isolation for two ports is -40dB and the antenna gain is measured as 14.3${\pm}$0.2dBi in the operating frequency band of wireless LAN.

$Bi_{3.25}La_{0.75}Ti_3O_{12}$(BLT) thin films were prepared on the Pt(150 nm)/Ti(50 nm)/$SiO_2$/Si substrate using the rf magnetron sputtering method. The BLT thin films were annealed at temperatures ranging from $600^{\circ}C$ to $750^{\circ}C$ using the rapid thermal annealing. The structure and surface morphology of the thin films were characterized by x-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscopy. The hysteresis loop of the BLT thin films showed that the remanent polarization (2Pr) of the film annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ was 10.92 ${\mu}C/cm^2$. The fatigue characteristic of the BLT thin film annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ was shown change polarization up to $1.2{\times}10^9$ switching cycles. We confirmed the excellent remnant polarization (Pr) and fatigue properties compared with other fabrication methods and suggested a good method for BLT thin films fabrications.

Design and characteristic improvement of existing folded dipole antenna is presented to adopt W-CDMA(1.885~2.170 GHz) wideband antenna radiators. The antenna structure has +/- 45 degrees dual polarization. In order to overcome the narrow bandwidth and low gain characteristic typical of the microstrip antenna, double layered structure was employed. The antenna achieved below - 20 dB reflection coefficients each ports, - 20 dB of port isolation, above 7 dBi of gain, providing evidence that the proposed design can be used in the W-CDMA service frequency band antenna.

Polycrystalline SBTN ferroelectric thin films were prepared by sol-gel method with various Nb mole ratios on Pt/ $SiO_2$/Si (100) substrates. The films were annealed at different temperatures and characterized in terms of phase and microstructure. Relatively a well saturated hysteresis pattern was obtained at x =0.2 in S $r_{0.8}$B $i_{2.3}$(T $a_{1-x}$ N $b_{x}$)$_2$ $O_{9+}$$\alpha$/ thin films. At an applied voltage of 5V, the dielectric constant ($\varepsilon$$_{r}$) and dissipation factor (tan $\delta$) of typical S $r_{0.8}$B $i_{2.3}$(T $a_{1-x}$ N $b_{x}$)$_2$ $O_{9+}$$\alpha$/ thin film (x=0.2) were about 236.2 and 0.034. Measured remanent polarization (2Pr) and coercive field (Ec) were 4.28C/c $m_2$, and 38.88kv/cm respectively. No fatigue was observed up to 6$\times$10$_{10}$ switching cycles at 5V and the normalized polarization reduced by a factor of only 4%.%. 4%.%. 4%.%.%.%.%.
