In this study, the microwave dielectric property variations of (1-x)$BiNbO_4-(x)ZnNb_2O_6$ composites (x=0.3, 0.5 and 0.7) with 10wt% zinc borosilicate(ZBS) glass was investigated as a function of the substitution of $ZnNb_2O_6$ with a view to applying thes system to LTCC technology. The all composition addition of 10wt% ZBS glass ensured a successful sintering below $900^{\circ}C$. In addition, a small amount of $Bi_2SiO_5$ as the secondary phase was observed in the all composition. The substitution of $ZnNb_2O_6$ on the $BiNbO_4$ composites increased the $Q{\times}f$ values, but it decreased the sinterability and dielectric constant due to the high sintering temperature and low dielectric constant of $ZnNb_2O_6\;than\;BiNbO_4$ ceramics. The increasing of $ZnNb_2O_6$ content from 0.3 to 0.7 in the (1-x)$BiNbO_4-(x)ZnNb_2O_6$ composites with 10wt% ZBS glass sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ demonstrated 28.1~15.6 in the dielectric constant$({\varepsilon}_r)$, 5,500~8,700GHz in the $Q{\times}f$ value.

This paper discusses the application of Si-Borosilicate glass sealing to a new sealing method which utilizes a large electrostatic field to pormote bound formation at relatively low temperature. Bonding mechanism and the effect of bonding time bonding temperature glass thickness and surface roughness on the bond strength were investigated. Application of a de voltage across bonded specimen gradually produced a layer of glass adjacent silicon which was depleted of mobile ions. As a consequence a n increasingly larger fraction of the applied voltage appeared across the depleted region and very large electric field resulted This field accompanyed by large electrostatic force acted as driving force the of strong bond. And stronger bond was formed with increasing bonding time and temperature. A low temperature preoxidation is advantageous for the Si surface having a rougher surface finish that 1 microinch.

In order to vitrify the combustible dry active waste (DAW) generated from Korean Nuclear Power Plants, a glass formulation development based on waste composition was performed. A borosilicate glass, DG-2, was formulated to vitrify the DAW in an induction cold crucible melter (CCM). The processability, product performance, and volume reduction effect of the candidate glass were evaluated using a computer code and were measured experimentally in the laboratory and CCM. The glass viscosity and electrical conductivity as the process parameters were in the desired ranges. Start-up and maintaining glass melt of the candidate glass were favorable in the CCM. The product of the glass product such as chemical durability, phase stability, and density was satisfactory. The vitrification process using the candidate glass was also evaluated assuming that it was operated as economically as possible.

To develop porous glass membranes used for a effective membrane-separation process, porous glasses and glass membranes were prepared from the sodium borosilicate parent glass by the phaseseparation technique and effects of heat-treatment and leaching conditions on their characteristics were investigated. The crack-free glass membranes could be fabricated from the 9.4 Na2-O-30.7 B2O3-59.2 SiO2-0.7 Al2O3(wt%) parent glass by heat-treatment at the lower temperature(550-570$^{\circ}C$) and for longer than 45 hrs for the phase separation, followed by leaching with 3N-HCl＋60% ethylene glycol solution at 90$^{\circ}C$ over 25 hrs. Porous glasses prepared in this work showed large specific surface areas(400㎡/g) and narrow pore size distribution with the mean pore radius of 14${\AA}$ enough for the application as reverse osmosis membranes. The salt-rejection efficiency and product-flux of the glass membranes heat-treated at 570$^{\circ}C$ for 80 hrs were found to be 51.8% and 270cc/㎡. hr, respectively. This result suggests that the porous glass membranes fabricated in this study could be applied for the reverse osmosis process.

The main phase of $BaTi_{4}O_9$-based ceramics was transformed to $BaTi_{5}O_{11}$ caused by the sintering with borosilicate glass, which was analyzed by using XRD and TEM. We considered that the phase change from $BaTi_{4}O_9$-based ceramics to the Ti-rich $BaTi_{5}O_{11}$ phase resulted from borosilicate glass selective absorbing of Ba ions from the $BaTi_{4}O_9$. In these results, we found a dependence on the amounts of the glass frits and the annealing temperature, and the phase change is also dependent of the main phases of $Ba_{4}Ti_{13}O_{30},\;and\;Ba_{2}Ti_{9}O_{20}$, which are involved in the $BaO-TiO_2-based$ Ti-rich region. In the case of sintering of middle- and high- permittivity material with additional glass frits for middle- and high- dielectric coefficients LTCC composition, control of weight fraction of the glass frits accompanying low-temperature sintering property with appropriate phase change is required.

The physico-chemical properties of nine selected thallium borosilicate glasses and other 21 supplementary compositions were investigated. Their composition-property curves are found to be in many respects analogous to those of other borosilicate glasses containing lithia, soda, and lead oxide. It is indicated that certain minima found in the composition-property curves of thallium borosilicate glasses might be caused by a change in boron coordination as has been observed to occur in the $Na_2O-B_2O_3-SiO_2$ glasses. Typical effects of thallium ions on the borosilicate glass are summarized as follows: 1) Addition of thallium ions increased density, refractive index, water solubility, linear coefficient of thermal expansion, and dielectric constant. 2) Increased concentration of thallium decreased the softening point of the glasses, caused fluorescence under ultraviolet radiation and smeared out the absorption edges up to $15{\mu}$ in the infrared region. An extensive liquid immiscibility was found by replication electron microscope technique in the $Tl_2O-B_2O_3-SiO_2$ system. The immiscibility covers a composition range roughly from 55 wt. % Tl2O to the binary system $B_2O_3-SiO_2.$ By acid treatment, it was found that the immiscible glass consists of separate silica-rich and boron-rich phases.

The tendency of glass containing titanium-dioxide to separate into two phases can be attributed to a change of the coordination number of titanium from six to four on increase of temperature and to "freezing" of the high temperature four fold coordination on cooling of the melt. Addition of TiO2 to the basic glass 8.7 $Na_2O$ 22.4B2O3 68.9 $SiO_2$ was varied 5 to 25 parts. The phase separation in the temperature range of transformation was examined with each heating temperature and soaking time. As the experimental results, the most distinct phase separation were obtained from alkali extraction method when $TiO_2$ was added 15 parts. The apparant activation energy was 30.5 Kcal/mole by alkali extraction method derived from Arrhenius plots.ius plots.

Zinc-Borosilicate(ZnO 65.0wt%, B2O3 21.5wt%, SiO2 9.0wt%, PbO or tiO2 4wt%) passivation glasses were studied using differential thermal analysis(DTA), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) observations, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and measurement of thermal expansion coefficients. Passivation glasses containing 4wt% TiO2 and 4wt% PbO had crystallization temperature of 680~73$0^{\circ}C$ and major crystalline phases were identified by X-ray diffraction as $\alpha$-ZnO.B2O3 and $\alpha$-5ZnO.2B2O3. As increasing firing temperature, the size of crystalline phases increased by observation of SEM. The thermal expansion coefficient of crystallized glass frits was smaller than that of unfired glass.

The bimodal distribution of CuCl nano-crystals precipitated in alumino-borosilicate glass matrix (30SiO2-45B2O3-7.5Al2O3-7.5Na2O-7.5CaO-2.5GeO2(mole %)) was investigated by TEM and the temperature dependent optical spectroscopy. Two types of CuCl particles with different size were observed by TEM and it was confirmed by the splitting of Z3 absorption peak at low temperature and the occurrence of deflection point in the optical spectra with temperature.

Alumino-borosilicate glasses containing nano-sized CuCl crystals for nonlinear optical application were prepared by the melting and precipitation process, and structural and optical properties were investigated by using XRD, TEM, SAXS, and optical spectroscopy. the average radius of the precipitated CuCl particles was about 2 nm. The blue shift of Z3 resonance peak with decreasing the precipitated CuCl particles size was found and the radius increased with decreasing the glass transition temperature of the matrix glass and with increasing the temperature and duration time of the precipitation heat treatment.
