In this paper, the microwave dielectric properties of the yPb($Fe_{2/3}W_{1/3}$)$O_{3}$ - (1-y)($Pb_{x}Ca_{1-x}$)$ZrO_{3}$ system were investigated. It was found that an addition of Pb($Fe_{2/3}W_{1/3}$)$O_{3}$ promotes the grain growth, the solid solution between the Pb-based perovskite and the Ca-based perovskite and the decreasing of the sintering temperature. Especially, we found that 0.05Pb($Fe_{2/3}W_{1/3}$)$O_{3}$-0.95($Pb_{x}Ca_{1-x}$)$ZrO_{3}$ ceramic has not only lower sintering temperature but also better dielectric properties than those of the (Pb, Ca)$ZrO_{3}$ systems.

Pure zirconia and $x$ mol% calcia partially stabilized zirconia ($x$ = 1.5, 3, and 8) nanopowders were synthesized by hydrothermal method with various reaction temperatures for 24 hrs. The precipitated precursor of pure zirconia and $x$ mol% calcia doped zirconia was prepared by adding $NH_4OH$ to starting solutions; resulting sample was then put into an autoclave reactor. The optimal experimental conditions, such as reaction temperatures and times and amounts of stabilizer CaO, were carefully studied. The synthesized $ZrO_2$ and $x$ mol% CaO-$ZrO_2$ ($x$ = 1.5, 3, and 8) powders were characterized by XRD, SEM, TG-DTA, and Raman spectroscopy. When the hydrothermal temperature was as low as $160^{\circ}C$, pure $ZrO_2$ and $x$ mol% CaO-$ZrO_2$ ($x$ = 1.5 and 3) powders were identified as a mixture of monoclinic and tetragonal phases. However, a stable tetragonal phase of zirconia was observed in the 8 mol% calcia doped zirconia nanopowder at hydrothermal temperature above $160^{\circ}C$. To observe the phase transition, the 3 mol% CaO-$ZrO_2$ and 8 mol% CaO-$ZrO_2$ nanopowders were heat treated from 600 to $1000^{\circ}C$ for 2h. The 3 mol% CaO-$ZrO_2$ heat treated at above $1000^{\circ}C$ was found to undergo a complete phase transition from mixture phase to monoclinic phase. However, the 8 mol% calcia doped zirconia appeared in the stable tetragonal phase after heat treatment. The result of this study therefore should be considered as the preparation of 8 mol% CaO-$ZrO_2$ nanopowders via the hydrothermal method.

The microwave dielectric properties of ((P $b_{1-x}$ C $a_{x}$)Zr $O_3$ and (P $b_{0.63}$,C $a_{0.37-x}$ $M_{x}$)Zr $O_3$(M=Mg,Sr) ceramics were investigated. In (P $b_{1-x}$ C $a_{x}$)Zr $O_3$ (X=0.33~0.40) ceramics, high quality factor and small temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were obtain in (P $b_{0.63}$C $a_{0.37}$)Zr $O_3$with perovskite structure. In the case of (P $b_{0.63}$C $a_{0.37-x}$M $g_{x}$)Zr $O_3$ dielectric constant temperature coefficient of resonant frequency increased and quality factor decreased due to increase of polarization of A-O bonding. When replacing Ca ion with Sr ion with large ion radius, polarization decreased with increased of bonding length and thus dielectric constant and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency decreased.decreased.creased.

Widely used dielectrics, barium titanate was promising material for ceramic capacitor. It was produced by specific formulation with various dopants-La2O3, ZrO2, SnO2, CaZrO3, CaTiO3, CaSnO3, Bi2O3, and etc.-according to demanded properties of capacitor. In this study, we would examinate the study of dielectric properties and temperatuer characteristics (T.C.) with the amount of Bi2O3. The sample was prepared with [BaTiO3]10＋[BaZrO3, SnO2, La2O3, ZrO2]10 and Bi2O3 varied from 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 to 3.0wt%. After milling and mixing for 15hrs, each sample was dried and then pressed at 700kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ into pellets. Pellets were fired at 131$0^{\circ}C$, for 3hrs in air. As the result of measurements, dielectric constant, break down voltage, and insulation resistance were increased with the amount of Bi2O3, and the resonant frequency was shifted from high frequency to low frequency range. In the case of temperature characteristics, capacitance change rate was symmetrically changed at -$25^{\circ}C$ and ＋85$^{\circ}C$ respectively. Therefore, it is recognized that the temperature characteristics can be moderated with doping Bi2O3 in our study.

The undesirable phase transformation of zirconium dioxide at high temperatures can be eliminated by stabilization of the cubic phase with an addition of a selected alkaline earth or rare-earth oxide. In this paper the ionic conductivity of cubic solid solutions in the stabilized ZrO$_2$ by CaO-Y$_2$O$_3$ system was examined. The higher ionic conductivity appears to be related to lower activation energy rather than to the number of oxygen vacancies dictated by composition. Those compositions of highest conductivity lie close to the cubic-monoclinic solid-solution phase boundary. Conductivity temperature data are presented that indicate a reversible order-disorder transition for Zr$_2$2-Y$_2$O$_3$cubic solid solutions containing 20 and 25 mole % $Y_2$O$_3$.

Effects of calcination process and ZrO2 addition on the electrical properties of [(Ba0.82Sr0.08Ca0.1)O]m(Ti1-$\chi$Zr$\chi$)O2 ceramics have been investigated. With the variation of A/B-site ratio m of the dielectric formulations, sintering behavior and the resistivity after sintering in a reducing atmosphere have been affected by the calcination process. When the dielectric formulations of m=1.01 were sintered in a reducing atmosphere, the room-temperature resitivity of 109 {{{{ OMEGA }}.cm was obtained for samples processed with two-step calcination, which was much lower than 1012 {{{{ OMEGA }}.cm of samples calcined once. It was confirmed that high resistivity of Ca-doped BaTiO3 ceramics, after sintering in a reducing atmosphere, is maintained by acceptor-like behavior of CaTi" which is formed by Ca substitution to Ti-site. It was also found out that the critical amount of B-site Ca substitution for reduction inhibition of BaTiO3 is around 0.005 mol. With the increasing amount of ZrO2 addition to dielectric formulations, Curie peak was depressed and Curie temperature was lowered due to the enhanced diffuse phase transition.tion.

Novel green long persistent phosphors of $CaZrO_3$ : $HO_{3+}$ have been synthesized at high temperature with weak reduction atmosphere by traditional solid state reaction method. The role of $H_3BO_3$ as flux and the suitable concentration of Ho as activator on the $CaZrO_3$ : $HO_{3+}$ long persistent phosphors has been investigated. Crystals of $HO_{3+}$ doped $CaZrO_3$ long persistent phosphores were characterized by fluorescence spectrophotometer and photoluminescence (PL). The main emission spectra of 546 nm peak was revealed through synthesizing at high temperature in $N_2$ gas atmosphere. The after glow emission spectra of $CaZrO_3$ : $HO_{3+}$ long persistent phosphores arise at 546 nm peak of narrow range. because that revealed pure green color. Green long persistent phosphors have been observed in the system for over 5 h after UV irradiation (254 nm). The main emission peak was ascribed to $HO_{3+}$ ions transition from $^5F_4$, $^5S_2{\to}^5I_3$, and the after glow may be ascribed to the trap centers in the $CaZrO_3$ host lattice.

The ionic conductivity of cubic solid solutions in the systems of CaO-$ZrO_2$, $Y_2O_3-ZrO_2$ prepared by SHS was examined. The higher conductivity appears to be related to a lower activation energy rather than to the number of oxygen vacancies dictated by composition. Conductivity-temperature data was obtained at 1000 $^{\circ}C$ in atmosphere of low oxygen partial pressure (~$10^{-40}$ atm) for $Y_2O_3-ZrO_2$ cubic solid solutions. The data indicated that these materials could be reduced, and the decree of reduction would be related with the measuring electric field.

Dielectric properties were investigated at Mn doped $(Pb_{1-x}Ca_{x})ZrO_{3}$ with x=0.38 in microwavefrequencies. Both the density and Q values of sintered ceramics increased with increasing calciningtemperature. In the sample sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs, the deped Mn ions completely solubled in $(Pb,Ca)ZrO_{3}$ phase until 0.5wt% and the grain size was independent of doping amount. It was observed thathigh dielectric constant of 90 - 100 and high quality factor of 1300 at 4 GHz for O.l5wt% Mn doped$(Pb_{0.62}Ca_{0.38})ZrO_{3}$. The Mn" and Mn" worked as acceptors in $(Pb,Ca)ZrO_{3}$ which created the oxygen vacancies and affected the increment of the Q values. However, the excess Mn doping more than 0.5wt% resulted in decreasing Q values.decreasing Q values.

The dielectric and sintering characteristics of composites made by substituting Ca ion to Ba-site and Zr ion to Ti site in $(Ba{1-x}Ca_x)(Ti{0.96-yZr_ySn_{0.04})O_3$ $(0.15{\leq}x{\leq}0.20,\;0.09{\leq}y{\leq}0.14)$ were investigated. As the content of Ca was more than 15 mol%, composite was formed by precipitating the second phase whose main element was $CaTiO_3$ and the fraction of the second phase was increased. The curie temperature of composites was depended on Ca concentration, $-1.7^{\circ}C$ per mol% and the maximum dielectric constant of composite was decreased by the rate of 200/mol%. The substitution of Zr ion decreased the curie temperature by the rate of $10^{\circ}C$ per mol% and the maximum dielectric constant was decreased by 217/mol% due to the increase of diffuse phase transition. The density and insulation breakdown characteristics were improved by suppressing the abnormal grain growth due to the increase of second phase. We developed the composition of Y5U (EIA standard) condenser which had high breakdown voltage and dielectric constant by controlling diffuse phase transition by the addition of Zr ion into composite.
