In this paper, the pizoelectric and dielectric properties of 0.95Pb(ZrxTil-x)O$_3$- 0.05Pb(Mn$\_$0.2/Fe$\_$0.4/W$\_$0.4/)O$_3$piezoelectric ceramics is investigated as a function of Zr/Ti mole ratio. Also, MPB(Morphotropic Phase Boundary) and optimal sintering temperature is studied using XRD and SEM. As a results, when Zr/Ti mole ratio is 52/48, electromechanical coupling factor, k$\_$p/, is 58[%], permittivity, $\varepsilon$$\^$T/$\_$33//$\varepsilon$0, is 1360 and piezoelectric strain constant, d$\_$33/ is 265[pC/N] and the piezoelectric and dielectric properties become maximum. Phase transition temperature of its ternary piezoelectric system is about 350[$^{\circ}C$]. From the XRD analysis, when Zr/Ti mole ratio is 52/48, tetragonal phase transits to rhombohedral phase. Also, From measuring results of the sintering density, when sintering temperature is 1050[$^{\circ}C$], sintering density become maximum and is about 7930[kg/㎥], and average grain size is about 2-3[$\mu\textrm{m}$].

Pyroelectric properties of rhombohedral $Pb(ZrxTi_1-x)O_3ceramics$ with various Zr/Ti ratios of 84/16, 87/13, 90/10, and 93/7 are investigated using dynamic method. The response characteristics of PZT samples are examined by considering frequency dispersion. Since the reorientation of the grain does not the influence on the increase of frequency at low frequency (2~200Hz), the maximum pyroelectric response can be obtained with the change of spontaneous polarization. However, the pyroelectric response of PZT samples could be reduced as the spontaneous polarization decreases due to the restrain of the reorientation of the grain with the increasing of requency at high frequency (200~2000Hz). We have obtained the good pyroelectric response in the PZT sample having 84/16 Zr/Ti ratio, then the pyroelectric coefficient (${\gamma}$) and the figure of merit (FV) were $17.3nC/\textrm{cm}^2K$ and 2.28$\times$10-11Ccm/J, respectively. The noise equivalent power (NEP), the detectivity (D*) were 1.21$\times$10-7W/Hz$\frac{1}{2}$ and 8.26$\times$106cmHz$\frac{1}{2}$/W, respectively.

We investigated the structural and electrical properties of Ce-doped Ba($Zr_{0.2}Ti_{0.8}$)$O_3$(BCZT) thin films with a mole fraction of x=0.2 and a thickness about 100 nm. BCZT films were prepared on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by a RF magnetron sputtering system. We have measured the thickness profile with Ar/$O_2$ ratio and the surface roughness. It was observed that the oxygen gas, which introduced during the film deposition, have an influence on the roughness of the film and the film roughness was reduced by annealing from 2.33 nm to 2.02 m (RMS at $500^{\circ}C$, Ar:6 scrim, $O_2$:6 sccm). We have found that annealing procedure after top electrode deposit can reduce the dissipation factor.

Recently, iron aluminides based on Fe3Al and FeAl are ordered intermetallic alloys that offer good oxidation resistance, excellent sulfidation resistance, and potentially lower cost than many high-temperature structural materials. They have better strength, elasticity to weight ratio and high temperature strength, therefore, they can be cosidered as candidate heat resistance structural materials for automobiles, ships, airplanes and spaceships applications. The changes in the mechanical properties and fracture behavior were investigated for Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloys when Ti, Hf and Zr were added respectively. For mechanical properties such as Rockwell hardness and yield strength at room temperature, those were decreased in the case of Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy then increased in the case of 5at.% and 10at.% addition of Ti alone. However, Rockwell hardness and yield strength decreased again at 15%Ti then increased dramatically due to the precipitation hardening of the second phase on the specimen at 20%Ti. For fracture modes, cleavage fracture showed in the case of Fe-30at.%Al and Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloys. As the amount of Ti addition changed cleavage to transgranular fracture and to quasi-cleavage fracture at 20%Ti. When Hf, Zr and Hf+Zr were added respectively, transgranular, cleavage and quasi-cleavage fracture were coexisted.

The effects of Ti, B and Zr on grain refinement and castability were investigated in Al-4wt%Mg-0.9wt%Si-0.3wt%Mn-0.15wt%Fe alloy. Measurement of cooling curve and micro-structure observation were performed to analyze the effects of the addition of minor elements Ti, B and Zr during solidification. The prominence of effect on grain refinement was in increasing order for Ti, Zr and B element. Fine grain size and an increase of the crystallization temperature for ${\alpha}$-Al solution were evident as the amount of addition elements increased in this study. Addition of 0.15wt% Ti was most effective for grain refinement, and the resulting grain size of ${\alpha}$-Al solution for shell mold and steel mold were $72.3{\mu}m$ and $23.5{\mu}m$, respectively. Fluidity and shrinkage tests were perform to evaluate the castability of the alloy. Maximum fluidity length and minimum ratio of micro shrinkage were recorded for 0.15wt% Ti addition due to the effect of the finest grain size.

PbTiO$_{3}$-PbZrO$_{3}$-Pb(Ni$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/O$_{3}$) (PZT-PNN) thin films were prepared from corresponding metal organics partially stabilized with diethanolamine by the sol-gel spin coating method. Each mol ratio of PT:PZ:PNN solutions were #1(50:40:10), #2(50:30:20), #3(45:35:20), #4(40:40:20), #5(40:50:10), #6(35:45:20) and #7(30:50:20) respectively. The spin-coated PZT-PNN films were heat-treated at 350.deg. C for decomposition of residual organics, and were sintered from 450.deg. C to 750.deg. C for crystallization. The substrates, such as Pt and Pt/TiN/Ti/TiN/Si were used for the spin coating of PZT PNN films. The perovskite phase was observed in the PZT-PNN films heat-treated at 500.deg. C. The crystalline of the PZT-PNN films was optimized at the sintering of 700.deg. C. By the result of AES analysis, It is confirmed that the films of TiN/Ti/TiN was a good diffusion barrier and that co-diffusion into the each films was not observed.

Pulse electric field induced electron emission from ferroelectrics has been studied with Pb$(Zr_xTi_{1-x})O_3$ ceramics with varying Zr/Ti ratio from 35/65 to 65/35, Electron emission was proved to be concentrated on the electrode edge by emission profile test and emission capture photographs. The 65/35 composition showed largest emission charge in lowest field and lowest emission threshold field. The emission characteristics are closely dependent on their ferroelectric properties in hysteresis curve. Electron emission charge increases with the polarization charge and emission threshold voltage is dependent on coercive field regardless of their composition. But dielectric constant has little relation with emission property. Electron emission charge increases exponentially with pulse electric field irrespective of composition. On the assumption that the surface potential is linear with the pulse electric field, electron emission can be regarded as a field emission at the electrode edge using Fowler-Nordheim plot of ln$(Q_e/E_{fe})$ to $1/E_{fe}$.
