It was examined that the relationship between microstructures, electrical properties and crystal structure of (1-x)CaMnO$_3$-xCaTiO$_3$solid solution system which was made by mixing a semiconducting material CaMnO$_3$of low resistance and a dielectric material CaTiO$_3$of high resistance with variable ratios (x=0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.0). As the CaTiO$_3$increased, the resistance, B constant and lattice constant were increased, but the grain size was decreased. On particular, above 50wt% of CaTiO$_3$, the resistance at 2 5$^{\circ}C$ was rapidly increased due to the correlation in connectivity of the lattices between the conductive Mn$^{+4}$ octahedron and the insulative Ti$^{+4}$ octahedron.ron.

La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$분말은 공기중에서 하소온도와 시간의 변화에 따라 각각 용액연소법과 고상반응법을 이용하여 제조되었다. 조성 및 구조 특성을 XRD와 SEM으로부터 조사하였으며 소결성은 dilatometer에 의해 조사되었다. 또한 분말 특성은 BET에 의해 조사되었고 분말의 하소온도는 TG 분석으로부터 결정되었다. 하소온도 및 시간이 증가함에 따라 La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$상의 XRD peak가 증가하였는데, 고상반응법을 이용한 경우 100$0^{\circ}C$에서 24시간 동안 하소해서야 겨우 La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$의 단상을 얻을 수 있었으나 용액연소법을 이용한 경우, $650^{\circ}C$에서 30분 동안 하소함으로써 submicron 입자크기를 갖는 단상이면서 초미세한 La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$분말을 쉽게 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 용액연소법에 의해 제조된 다결정인 La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$분말은 49.44$m^2$/g 정도의 매우 큰 비표면적을 얻을 수 있었다. 이 값은 고상반응법에 의해 제조된 분말의 비표면적 보다 매우 컸으며 이와 같으 사실로 인해 용액연소법에 의해 제조된 분말의 소결온도를 낮출 수 있었다. 분말의 소결온도를 낮출 수 있었다.

For improvement of B constant in $CaMnO_3$-$CaTiO_3$ perovskite type thermistors, effect of $Cr_2$$O_3$ addition ranged from 0.0wt% to 5.0wt% on electrical properties were investigated with contents and sintering temperatures in the view of crystal and microstructures. The solubility limit of Cr$_2$O$_3$was up to 0.5wt% judging from the result of lattice parameter. The grain size was decreased and the resistance at room temperature and B constant were increased with the addition of $Cr_2$$O_3$.On particular, B constant of$CaMnO_{3-x}$$Cr_2$$O_3$ system was increased greatly from 1574k to 2598k at 0.5wt% $Cr_2$$O_3$addition. Further addition of $Cr_2$$O_3$, however, resulted in the decrease of the resistance and B constant due to the $Cr_2$$O_3$ precipitation on the grain boundary. As the$CaTiO_3$contents increased in the $CaMnO_3$-$CaTiO_3$ system, the resistance at room temperature and B constant were highly changed.

The powders of L $a_{0.8}$C $a_{0.2}$Mn $O_3$ Colossal Magnetoresistance (CMR) materials were synthesized by sol-gel process. Lanthanum(H), Calcium(II) and Manganese(III) 2,4-Pentanedionate were dissolved in a mixed binary solution consisted of propionic acid and methanol with PEG (15 wt%) aqueous solution. The progress of reactions was monitored by FT-IR spectroscopy. The Lao scao.2Mn03 gel powders were annealed at various temperatures. The structural changes were investigated by FT-IR, CP/MAS $^{ 13}$C solid state NMR spectroscopy and XRD. The thermochemical property, particle characterization, microstructure of sintered sample, and cation composition of gel powder were studied by TG/DTA, FE-SEM and ICP-AES. The magnetic characterizations were identified through measurement of magnetic moment by VSM.

To reduce noise in high frequency and distortion of signal, the composition of $(Ca_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})(Zr_{0.97}Ti_{0.03})O_3$ and $(Ba_{0.2}Ca_{0.4}Sr_{0.4})TiO_3$ was developed. The composition was not solid solution, but mixtures of various phases composed of Ca, Sr, Zr, Ti and Ba oxides. The dielectric constant increased, the quality factor and the insulation resistance decreased with $(Ba_{0.2}Ca_{0.4}Sr_{0.4})TiO_3$ content. The composition of $0.4(Ba_{0.2}Ca_{0.4}Sr_{0.4})TiO_3$ satisfied the electric characteristics and the temperature coefficient of dielectric constant (TCC). In addition, the glass frit and $MnO_2$ also affected the electric characteristics. From the result of the best fit simulation, $MnO_2$ 0.3 mol%, the glass frit 0.6 wt% showed the insulation resistance $906{\Omega}{\cdot}F$, the quality factor 821, and the dielectric constant 92. With the selected composition, MLCC capacitors sized $4.5{\times}3.2{\times}2.5mm$ were manufactured with 105 layered of the dielectric thickness $16{\mu}m$ using Ni inner electrode, They represented the capacitance $98{\sim}102$ nF, the quality factor 1,200 and the insulation resistance $1,500{\Omega}{\cdot}F$. Also, they had high break-down voltage with $107{\sim}115V/{\mu}m$, and satisfied the SL TCC characteristics.

A new mineral, Zn analogue of rancieite (Chimooite), has been discovered at the Dongnam mine, Korea. It occurs as compact subparallel fine­grained flaky or acicular aggregates in the massive manganese oxide ores which were formed by supergene oxidation of rhodochrosite­sulfide ores in the hydrothermal veins trending NS­N25E and cutting the Pungchon limestone of the Cambrian age. The flakes of chimooite are 0.2 mm for the largest one, but usually less than 0.05 mm. The acicular crystals are elongated parallel to and flattened on (001). This mineral shows gradation to rancieite constituting its marginal part, thus both minerals are found in one and the same flake. Color is bluish black, with dull luster and brown streak in globular or massive aggregates. Cleavage is perfect in one direction. The hardness ranges from 2.5 to 4. Under reflected light it is anisotropic and bireflectant. It shows reddish brown internal reflection. Chemical analyses of different parts of both minerals suggest that rancieite and chimooite constitute a continuous solid solution series by cationic substitution. The empirical chemical formula for chimooite has been calculated following the general formula, $R_2_{x}$ M $n^{4+}$$_{9­x}$ $O_{18}$ $.$n$H_2O$ for the 7 $\AA$ phyllomanganate minerals, where x varies from 0.81 to 1.28 in so far studied samples, thus averaging to 1.0. Therefore, the formula of Zn­rancieite is close to the well­known strochiometric formula $_Mn_4^{4+}$ $O_{9}$ $.$4$H_2O$. The mineral has the formula (Z $n_{0.78}$N $a_{0.15}$C $a_{0.08}$M $g_{0.01}$ $K_{0.01}$)(M $n^{4+}$$_{3.98}$F $e^{3+}$$_{0.02}$)$_{4.00}$ $O_{9}$ $.$3.85$H_2O$, thus the ideal formula is (Zn,Ca)M $n^{4+}$$_4$ $O_{9}$ $.$3.85$H_2O$. The mineral has a hexagonal unit ceil with a=2.840 $\AA$ c=7.486 $\AA$ and a : c = 1 : 2.636. The DTA curve shows endothermic peaks at 65, 180, 690 and 102$0^{\circ}C$. The IR absorption spectrum shows absorption bands at 445, 500, 1630 and 3400 c $m^{1}$. The mineral name Chimooite has been named in honour of late Prof, Chi Moo Son of Seoul National University.ity.versity.ity.y.
