The 0.96$MgTiO_3$-0.04$BaTiO_3$ ceramics were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The structural properties were investigated with sintering temperature and composition ratio by XRD, SEM and EDS. According to the X-ray diffraction patterns of the 0.96$MgTiO_3$-0.04$BaTiO_3$ ceramics, the hexagonal $BaMg_6Ti_6O_{19}$ and ilmenite $MgTiO_3$ structures were coexisted. In the case of the 0.96$MgTiO_3$-0.04$BaTiO_3$ ceramics sintered at 1325$^{\circ}C$, dielectric constant, quality factor and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 23.95, 70,200, -55.8ppm/$^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The three different composition of BaTi4O9, Ba2Ti9O20 and BaTi5O11 were prepared by coprecipitation process, and then the dielectric properties of these compounds were measured at low microwave frequencies. The powder showing high level of purity was synthesised by the coprecipition reaction of BaCl2 and TiCl4 where (NH4)2CO3 and NH4OH were used as a deflocculent. Followings are the result of this study: 1. The sintering temperature increased with increasing TiO2 content. 2. BaTi4O9 powder were synthesized as a single phase by this processing technique, but the resultant Ba2Ti9O20 and BaTi5O11 phase existed with Ba2Ti9O20 and BaTi5O11 phases. 3. Single phase BaTi4O9 showed high dielectric constant value of 35, high Q value of 8100.

In this study, a new LTCC material using $ZnWO_4$-LiF system was attempted with respect to use as a capacitor layer in Front-End Module. Pure $ZnWO_4$ must be sintered above $1050^{\circ}C$ in order to obtain up to 98% of full density. It's measured dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 15.5, 74380GHz, and $-70ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively. LiF addition resulted in an liquid phase formation at $810^{\circ}C$ due to interaction between $ZnWO_4$ and LiF. Therefore $ZnWO_4$ with 0.5~1.5wt% LiF could be densified at $850^{\circ}C$. Addition of LiF slightly lowered the dielectric constant from 15.5 to 14.2~15. In the given LiF addition range, the sintering shrinkage increased with increasing LiF content. $Q{\times}fo$ value, however, decreased with increasing LiF content(or increasing densification). This is originated from the interaction between the liquid phase and $ZnWO_4$ and inhomogeneity of grain morphology.

Ferroelectric $(Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5})TiO_3$ (BST) thin films of thickness 500nm were deposited on $LaAlO_3$, (LAO) substrates by at $800^{\circ}C$. BST films were characterized for structure using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The surface morphology and thickness of BST the films were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). We measured the dielectric properties at microwave frequencies (1~3 GHz) using a symmetrical stripline resonator with shorted ends and terahertz frequencies (0.2~2.5 THz) using a time-domain terahertz spectroscopy. The real and imaginary parts of the complex dielectric constant of the BST thin films on LAO substrates were in agreement with those previously reported.

$Al_2O_3-TiO_2$(AT)ceramics shows great promise as a dielectric material for millimeter-wave use. The sintering temperature of AT ceramics was approximately $1450^{\circ}C$ and decreased to $900^{\circ}C$ with the addition of BaCu(B2O5) (BCB) ceramic powder. The presence, of the liquid phase was responsible for the decrease of the sintering temperature. The liquid phase is considered to have a composition similar to the BaO-deficient BCB. The Q-value initially increased with the addition of BCB, but decreased considerably when a large amount of BCB was added, because of the presence of the liquid phase. Good microwave dielectric properties of $Q{\times}f\;=\;16,200\;GHz$, ${\varepsilon}_r\;=\;9$ and ${\tau}_f\;=\;-4\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ were obtained for the 20.0 mol% BCB-added AT ceramics sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 2 h.

Microwave dielectric properties and multilayer characteristics $(1-x)BiNbO_4-xCaNb_2O_6$ (0${\le}$x${\le}$1.0) ceramics were investigated as a function of $CaNb_2O_6$ content. In the composition range of 0.25${\le}$x${\le}$0.75, the mixture phases of $BiNbO_4$ with stibotantalate structure and $CaNb_2O_6$ with columbite structure were detected and secondary phase or phase transition were not detected. Dielectric constant (K) of $(1-x)BiNbO_4-xCaNb_2O_6$ ceramics was largely dependent on the existing phase and could be estimated by the dielectric mixing rule calculated from maxwell equation. Typically, dielectric constant (K) of 26, quality factor (Qf) of 4300 GHz and Temperature Coefficient of resonant Frequency (TCF) of -18 ppm/${\circ}C$ were obtained for $0.5BiNbO_4-0.5CaNb_2O_6$ specimens with 0.8 wt% $CuV_2O_6$ sintered at 1000${\circ}C$ for 3h. The deviation of X-Y shrinkage and camber value of the multilayers obtained from $0.5BiNbO_4-0.5CaNb_2O_6$ green sheet sintered at 850∼950${\circ}C$ for 20 min. were smaller than those of $BiNbO_4$ multilayers.

The microwave dielectric properties of $Zn_3Nb_2O_8\;with\;V_2O_5$ addition were investigated. The addition of $V_2O_5$ enhanced the sinterability of $Zn_3Nb_2O_8$, which resulted in high density of $Zn_3Nb_2O_8$ ceramic greater than 95% of the theoretical value when sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours. X-ray diffraction analysis of sintered $Zn_3Nb_2O_8$ ceramic showed no second phase with $V_2O_5$ addition. Dielectric permittivity(${\varepsilon}_r$) and quality factor($Q{\times}f$) varied with both density at different sintering temperature and $V_2O_5$ addition. Dielectric permittivity, quality factor and temperature coefficient($T_{cf}$) of the two mole of $V_2O_5\;added\;Zn_3Nb_2O_8$ that was sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ were 21.4, 40,000, $-54ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The effects of mole ratio(A/B) m and Ti-ion on the dielectric properties and microstructure of the microwave dielectric ceramics $(Ca_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})_m(Ti_yZr_{1-y})O_3$ were investigated. Ti ions substituted on Zr-sites in these modified $CaZrO_3$ composition strongly affect the sintering density and microstructure of the fired ceramic body. With increasing the amount of Ti substituted on Zr-sites, the sintered density rapidly increased and the dense microstructure was obtained for the compositions having mole ratio of 1.01, whereas the sintered density and microstructure are nearly constant with the content of Ti-ion for the compositions having mole ratio of 0.99. With increasing the content of Ti ion, the curve of TCC (Temperature Coefficient of Capacitance) as a function of temperature rotated clockwise and satisfied the COG characteristics for both of compositions with mole ratio of 0.99 and 1.01. The content of Ti ion seems to be more effective than mole with respect to the controlling of firing and TCC.

Effect of the sintering time on the microwave dielectric properties of the layered Functionally Graded Materials(FGMs) of the Mg0.93Ca0.07TiO3(MCT) with (Ca0.3Li0.14Sm0.42)TiO3(CLST) ceramics was investigated. The dielectric constant of layered FGMs specimens showed a nearly constant value and did not change significantly with sintering time. The quality factor, however, was affected by the relative density and thermal stress developed in each dielectric layer. With an increase of the relative density and the decrease of the induced thermal stresses, quality factor of the layered FGMs specimens increased and the quality factor was incluenced sensitively by the change of compressive stress developed in MCT layers which had a lower thermal expansion coefficient than that of CLST. For the layered FGMs specimen sintered at 1300$^{\circ}C$ for 9h, the compressive stress developed in MCT layer showed the maximum value, which, in turn, the quality factor of the specimen was the minimum value.

Low temperature sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of the $BiNbO_{4^-}$ and the $ZnNb_2O_{6^-}zinc$ borosilicate glass(ZBS) systems were investigated with a view to applying the composition to LTCC technology. The addition of $10{\sim}30$ wt% ZBS in both systems ensured successful sintering below $900^{\circ}C$. For the $BiNbO_{4^-}ZBS$ system, the sintering was completed when 15 wt% ZBS was added whereas 25 wt% ZBS was necessary for the $ZnNb_2O_{6^-}zinc$ system. Secondary phase was not observed in the $BiNbO_{4^-}ZBS$ system but a small amount of $ZnNb_2O_6$ with the willemite structure as the secondary phase was observed in the $ZnNb_2O_{6^-}ZBS$ system. In terms of dielectric properties, the application of the $BiNbO_{4^-}$ and the $ZnNb_2O_{6^-}ZBS$ systems sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ to LTCC were shown to be appropriate; $BiNbO_{4^-}15$ wt% ZBS($\varepsilon_r=25,\;Q{\times}f\;value=3,700GHz,\;\tau_f=-32ppm/^{\circ}C$) and $ZnNb_2O_{6^-}25$ wt% ZBS($\varepsilon_r=15.8,\;Q{\times}f\;value=5,400GHz,\;\tau_f=-98ppm/^{\circ}C$).
