We deposited epitaxial $Ba_{0.6}$S $r_{0.4}$Ti $O_3$(BST) films having thickness of 400 nm on MgO(001) substrates, where a 10 nm thick $Ba_{1-x}$S $r_{x}$Ti $O_3$(x=0.1-0.7) interlayer was inserted between BST and MgO to manipulate the stress of the BST films. Since the main difference of those epitaxial BST films was the lattice constant of the interlayers, we were very successful in controlling the stress of the BST films. BST films under small tensile stress showed larger dielectric constant than that without stress as well as those under compressive stress. Stress relaxation was investigated using epitaxial BST films with various thicknesses grown on different interlayers. For BST films grown on $Ba_{0.7}$S $r_{0.3}$Ti $O_3$ interlayers, the critical thickness was about 600 nm. On the other hand, the critical thickness of single-layer BST film was less than 100 nm.00 nm.m.m.m.

The search for materials that serve as good shields for radiation has become very important in light of the increasing exposure to ionizing radiation in various vital sectors. The aim is to search for novel materials with better radiation shielding properties that are stable, nontoxic, and abundant and environment friendly. The solidstate reaction approach has been used to synthesize a few ceramics, including BaZr_XTi_1-XO₃, Ba_1-XLa_XTiO₃ and Ba_1-XLa_XZr_XTi_1-XO₃ (with x = 0.10) i.eBaZr_0.10Ti_0.90O₃ (BZT), Ba_0.90La_0.10TiO₃ (BLT), and Ba_0.90La_0.10Zr_0.10Ti_0.90O₃ (BLZT). The density of the prepared samples varies from 6.3471 to 11.6003 g/cm³. The X-ray diffraction technique, shows strong peaks to confirm the crystalline structure of prepared ceramic samples. Using the G-P fitting approach, the advanced radiation shielding parameters (build-up factor) have been evaluated in the photon energy region of 1.5 keV-15 MeV. It is observed from the results that exposure buildup factor (EBF) and energy absorption buildup factor (EABF) are maximum for BLZT and has the minimum value for BZT in the entire photon energy regime. The results of this work should be useful in radiation shielding applications such as in industry, medicine, and nuclear engineering.

In this study, to prepare the dielectric (Ba, Sr)TiO3 thin films by the sol-gel process, Titaminum (IV) sio-propoxide (Ti[OCH(CH3)2]4), Ba and Sr acetate were used for sol and thin films were prepared by dip-coating process. Stability of sol decreased with the increase of Sr, and thickness of thin films were obtained 0.13~0.17${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ by 1 coating cycle. Transmittance of amorphous thin films heated at 500 and 55$0^{\circ}C$ was very good, and crystallization tendency of thin films according to heat-treatment temperature and crystallization characteristics of thin films heated at 11$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs were analysed. As a result, good perovskite structure was obtained higher than 100$0^{\circ}C$, and tetragonality of thin film was decreased but pyrochlore was formed with increasing Sr. In case of addition to substitute 0.4mol% Sr for Ba, dielectric constant was 288 and loss factor (tan $\delta$) was 0.04.

Using $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O, \;Sr(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ and $Ti(i-OC_3H_7)_4$, fine $(Ba_{1-x}, \;Sr_{x})TiO_3$ powders were synthesized through sol-gel process. The particle size of the powders calcined at $700^{\cric}C$ proved to be 20-40nm by the observation of TEM micrographs and measurement of BET specific surface area. The analysis of XRD patterns showed that the phase of the powders was cubic, and it was identified with the lattice parameters determined through XRD patterns and the shift of (112) peaks that the solid solution powders were synthesized. It was expected through the analysis of relative ratio of cations and the uniformity of compositions in the powders examined by EDAX analysis and relative dielectric constant measurements for sintered body that the distribution of cations was uniform in particle unit.

We report the synthesis of $SrTiO_3$, $BaTiO_3$ and $Ba_xSr_{1-x}TiO_3$ (BST) nanoparticles (NPs) in various compositions (x = 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75) by an inorganic sol-gel method under a basic condition. Highly crystalline nanoparticles were formed at the reaction temperature of 25 - $100^{\circ}C$ from a stabilized titanium alkoxide in tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) and barium or strontium acetate in aqueous solution. Morphology and particle structure of the synthesized BST NPs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The BST nanoparticles in various compositions were monodispersed without mutual aggregation, and their average sizes were in the range of 70 - 80 nm. Furthermore, they showed highly crystallized perovskite phase over the whole composition range from $SrTiO_3$ to $BaTiO_3$. We also proposed a mechanism for the low-temperature formation of BST NPs.

In order to synthesize Ba-ferrite particles by molten salt method KCl and NaCl were added to basic composition to 50% by weight. X was varied from 0.0 to 1.0 to control the magnetic properties in $BaFe_{12-2x}$/ $Co_{x}$ / $Ti_{x}$ / $O_{19}$ and 1 mol% of $SiO_2$was added to control the aspect ratio of hexagonal platelets. And the effects of reaction temperatures were examined by varying the temperature from 85$0^{\circ}C$ to 120$0^{\circ}C$ with 5$0^{\circ}C$ intervals. Eutectic composition of NaCl and KCl lowered the crystallizing temperature of Ba-ferrite in molten salts than using KCl and NaCl separatly. The morphology of resulting Ba-ferrite particles was clearly hexagonal-shaped plates. $H_{c}$ and $M_{r}$ were decreased when F $e^{3+}$ was substitued with $Co^{2+}$ and $Ti^{4+}$ from x=0 to x=1.0 in $BaFe_{12-2x}$/ $Co_{x}$ / $Ti_{x}$ / $O_{19}$ . Adding 1mol% $SiO_2$in molten salt method increased the size but shortened c-axis of the hexagonal ferrites and this result is an opposite phenomenon compared with the result in solid-statge reaction.n.ion.n.

Glass formation, thermal property and crystallization behavior were investigated in $xK_2O-(33.3-x)BaO-16.7TiO_2-50SiO_2(mole\%)$ with fresnoite($Ba_2TiSi_2O_8$) crystal by replacement BaO for $K_2O$. As x(0$\le$x$\le$20) contents increased, glass formation became easy, and crystallization temperature moved on to the low temperature. Crystal phase of the $Ba_2TiSi_2O_8$ was confirmed by XRD, and the replaced x was not effected on the formation of new crystals. The kinetics of crystallization of fresnoite were studied by applying the DTA measurements carried out at different heating rates. The average avrami exponent(n) and activation energy were changed $2.26 {\pm}0.1,\;2.03 {\pm}0.1,\;1.93{\pm}0.15$, $279 {\pm}12kJ/mole,\;302{\pm}7kJ/ mole,\;319{\pm}1kJ/mole$ according to x contents, respectively. The replaced x improved the orientation of crystal growth.

On the bases of the results from "Additive Coating of BaTiO$_3$ Powder using Sol Coating Method I", experimental condition was defined. Representative additives for BaTiO$_3$, that is to say, Mg, Ca and Mn were experimented. The sources of the metal ion were used by organometal complex. As added it, the stability of BaTiO$_3$ sol was evaluated. Mg and Ca were stable, however, The solubility limit of Mn-ATH was 0.05 mol ratio in Mn-ATH/sol. The solubility limit of Mg ion in BaTiO$_3$ was lower than 2 mol%. From the x Ray diffraction patterns, lattice parameters were different with temperature and additives, because the solubility of metal ion was varied in BaTiO$_3$. The dielectric constant of BaTiO$_3$ powders which coated with the 1.5 mol% Mg and calcined at 1200$^{\circ}C$ was increased with 20%.

0.96$(Na_{0.5}K_{0.5})NbO_3$-0.04$(Ba_{(1-x)}Sr_x)TiO_3$ lead free piezoelectric ceramics were synthesized to enhance the piezoelectric properties of (Na,K)$NbO_3$. The systhesis and sintering method were the conventional solid state reaction method and general sintering method in air atmosphere. The polymorphic phase transition(PPT) was observed at all composition(0 $\leq$ x $\leq$ 0.05) when $(Ba_{(1-x)}Sr_x)TiO_3$ were added in the $(Na_{0.5}K_{0.5})NbO_3$. As Sr concentration was increased, grain size, dielectric loss(tan$\delta$) and mechanical quality factor($Q_m$) were decreased and piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$) and electromechanical coupling factor($k_p$) were increased within a limited value. The optimized piezoelectric and properties, $d_{33}$, $k_p$, $Q_m$, and tand, of 0.96$(Na_{0.5}K_{0.5})NbO_3$-0.04$(Ba_{(1-x)}Sr_x)TiO_3$ were 139 pC/N, 0.31 %, 95, 0.04 at the composition of x=0.04.
