The calcining temperature ranging from 900$^{\circ}C$ to 1300$^{\circ}C$ affected on the planar coupling factor and resonance characteristics of BaTiO3 ceramics doped with 0.2 wt% MnO2 have been investigated. Dielectric constant planar coupling factor and anti-resonance frequency of the sample increased with the calcining temperature up to 1,200$^{\circ}C$ and decreased above that temperature but the resonance frequency decreased slightly with the increasing calcining temperature. The planar coupling factor and anti-resonance frequency increased with the sintered density and dielectric constant while the resonance frequency was almost constant. The resonance and anti-resonance frequency increased with the sample temperature.

In this paper, the electrical and dielectrical properties were investigated in Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$-Pb(Mn,Nb)O$_3$ ceramics which are manufactured with the substitution of Ba in site Pb. In older to increase the del and Kp , Ba was substitued to site Pb from 0 to 0.1 by 0.02 mol%. As the Ba substitution is increased, dielectric constant is increased and electricmachanical coupling factor showed the maximum value at Ba 0.06mol% and the mechanical qualify factor is decreased and the tetragonality and the grain size are decreased as the Ba substitution.

The effect of Mn and Nb additions on the electrical properties of BaTiO$_3$ has been studied by means of equilibrium electrical conductivity as a function of temperature, oxygen partial pressure(Po$_2$) and composition. If the manganese ion is added to the normal Ti site, i.e. BaTi$_{1-x}Mn_xO_{\delta-6}$, the equilibrium conductivity shows strong evidence of acceptor-doped behavior. The conductivity minimum, corresponding to the transition from oxygen excess, p-type behavior to oxygen deficient, n-type behavior with decreasing Po$_2$, is displaced to lower Po$_2$ and is broadened and flattened. The partial replacement of Mn ion with Nb decreases the acceptor-doped effect and the total replacement exhibits a typical donor-doped behavior. It was confirmed that unlike undoped or other acceptor-doped behavior. It was confirmed that unlike undoped or other acceptor-doped samples, for the p-type region, the electrical conductivity follows the 1/6th power dependence of oxygen partial pressure.

The structural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of $[Bi_{1-x}(Na_{0.7-x}K_{0.2}Li_{0.1})]_{0.5}BaxTiO_3$ (BNKLBxT) ceramics were studied for the compositional range, x = 0-0.08. The samples were prepared by conventional sintering technique. The result of X-ray diffraction (XRD) suggest that $Ba^{2+}$ diffuse into the $[Bi(Na_{0.7}K_{0.2}Li_{0.1})]_{0.5}TiO_3$ (BNKLT) lattices to form a solid solution with a single phase perovskite structure. The ceramic show excellent piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties, and optimum properties measured are as follows: piezoelectric constant $d_{33}=230pC/N$, planar electromechanical coupling factor $k_p\;=\;40.3%$, remanent polarization $P_r\;=\;30\;{\mu}C/cm^2$, and coercive field $E_c\; =\;2.5\;kV/mm$, respectively.

The characteristics of crystal structure and phase transition with dopants ($Nb_2O_5$= 0.1~0.4 mol% and $Y_2O_3$ : 0.2~0.4 mol%) on the PTCR $BaTiO_3$ system were investigated. In the case of $Nb_2O_5$ additive, the lattice parameter of PTCR $BaTiO_3$ was changed linearly with the increasement of $Nb_2O_5$ which substituted B-site of BaTiO$_3$ and the lattice parameter of c-axis decreased abruptly at 0.3 mol%. These phenonmena were assumed to originate from the distortion of octahedron and we could confirm that the change of lattice parameter accorded with the characteristics of the phase transition temperature. $Y^{3+}$ ions substituted both of A- and B-site until the 0.3 mol% addition, but $Y^{3+}$ substitution preferred A- to B-site above 0.3 mol%. This was affirmed by the variation ,of lattice parameter and the characteristics of phase transition. It also was found that $Y^{3+}$ions in the A-site substituted both of $Ba^{2＋}$ and $Ca^{2＋}$ ions with equal ratio by Rietveld method.

La-doped $BaTiO_3$ ceramics were prepared from BaTiO(C_2O_4)_2\;{\cdot}\;XH_2O(BTO)$, which was synthesized by homogeneous precipitation using dimethyl oxalate. The electrical properties of La-doped $BaTiO_3$ were investigated with variation of La-contents and particle size. It was found that a large PTCR (positive temperature coefficient of resistivity) effect was appeared in the conditions at the 0.6 mol% of La-content and at small particle size of BTO as 1.0$\mu\textrm{m}$. The plot of temperature vs. 1/$\varepsilon_m$(T) above Curie temperature $(T_c)$ was agreed with Curie-Weiss law. The potential barrier calculated from measured resistance and capacitance of specimen, also gave higher value at small particle size of BTO as 1.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and at La-content of 0.6 mol%.

The LTCCs (Low-Temperature Co-fired Ceramics) are very important for electronic industry to build smaller RF modules and to fulfill the necessity for miniaturization of devices in wireless communication industry. The dielectric materials with sintering temperature $T_{sint}$＜90$0^{\circ}C$ are required. In this study, BaO-N $d_2$ $O_3$-Ti $O_2$ (BNT ： 20∼40 wt％) for ceramic materials and L $a_2$ $O_3$- $B_2$ $O_3$-Ti $O_2$ (LBT ： 80∼60 wt％) for crystallizable glasses were used. The glass/ceramic composites were investigated for sintering behavior, phase evaluation, densities, interface reaction and microwave dielectric properties. It was found that the addition LBT glass frist significantly lowered the sintering temperature to below 90$0^{\circ}C$ and the densification with increasing addition LBT glass frist developed rapidly which was meant to be namely 90％ of relative density. The sintered bodies ekhibited applicable dielectric properties, namely 15 for $\varepsilon$$_{r}$,, 10000 GHz for Q＊ $f_{0}$. The results suggest that the composites have good potential as a new candidate for LTCC materials.

It has been reported that the size and characteristics of ferroelectric domains which have an essential role on the ferroelectric properties depend on the grain size of ferrolectric ceramics. Therefore understanding the change of domain characteristics with grain size is so important to know the dependence of dielectric constant, dielectric loss and aging on the grain size. In this research, the equilibrim domain with is calculated as d={{{{ SQRT { { 64 pi sigma a} over {3C11Ss2 } } }}. This calculated value is nearly same to the measured value of BaTiO3 and Pb(Zr0.4Ti0.6)O3 ceramics 90$^{\circ}$domain wall width. The calculated 90$^{\circ}$domain wall enerygy in Pb(Zr0.4Ti0.6)O3 which is obtained through the model is approximately 2$\times$10-2J/$m^2$.

The positive temperature coefficient of resistivity (PTCR) effect in (1-x)$BaTiO_3$ - $x(Bi_{0.5}K_{0.5})TiO_3$ doped with $Nb_2O_5$ was investigated. $(Bi_{1/2}K_{1/2})TiO_3$ (BKT) is more environment-friendly than $PbTiO_3$ in order to use in PTC thermistors. The incorporation of 1 mol% BKT to $BaTiO_3$ increased the Curie temperature (Tc) to $148^{\circ}C$. Doping of $Nb_2O_5$ to $Ba_{0.99}(Bi_{0.5}K_{0.5})_{0.01}TiO_3$ (BaBKT) ceramic has enhanced its PTCR effects. For the sample containing 0.025 mol% $Nb_2O_5$, it showed good PTCR properties; low resistivity at room temperature (${\rho}_r$) of 30 $\Omega{\cdot}cm$, a high PTCR intensity of approximately $3.3\times10^3$, implying the ratio of maximum resistivity to minimum resistivity (${\rho}_{max}/{\rho}_{min}$) in the measured temperature range, and a large resistivity temperature factor (a) of 13.7%/$^{\circ}C$ along with a high Curie temperature (Tc) of $167^{\circ}C$. In addition, the cooling rate of the samples during the sintering process had an influence on their PTCR behavior. All the samples showed the best ${\rho}_{max}/{\rho}_{min}$ ratio when they have cooled down at a rate of $600^{\circ}C$/min.
