$TiO_2$의 첨가가 ZnO계 세라믹 바리스타에 미치는 전기적인 영향

Influence of the Conduction Properties on ZnO-Based Ceramic Varistor with $TiO_2$ Additives

In this paper, the used specimen composition was added basic additives ($Bi_2O_3\;lmol%$, $Sb_2O_3\;lmol%$, CoO 0.5 mol%, MnO 0.5mol%) to ZnO powder, and $TiO_2$ (1,2,3,4 mol%) to the above basic composition. It appears that there are four regions of conduction current depended upon the strength of the applied electric field ; Ohimic region, Poole-Frenkel region, Schottky region and Tunneling region. Increasing of $TiO_2mol%$, the breakdown voltages of ZnO ceramic varistors are decreased. The decrease of breakdown voltages was explained with the decrease of potential barrier height. Moreover, V-I characteristics with temperature dependence are decreased with increasing of $TiO_2mol%$.
