본 연구에서는 화재 감지 회로 등에 사용되는 ZnO 바리스터의 제조과정중 냉각 속도가 전기적 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사한 것이다. 냉각 속도의 변화에 따른 시편의 미세구조, 전압-전류 특성, 복합임피던스 측정을 하였다. 냉각 속도 $200^{circ}$/h에서 비오옴계수나 바리스터 동작 전압의 최대치를 나타내었다. 이것은 냉각과정 중 형성된 결정입계에 성질에 의존됨을 알았다. 복합임피던스는 100Hz-13MHz의 주파수 범위에서 측정하였으며, 반원의 특성을 검토한 결과 결정립이나 결정입계의 저항이 냉각 속도에 크게 의존되고 있음을 확인하였다. |

The aim of the present study is to find out the effect of cooling rate on the electrical behavior of ZnO varistors. The microstructure, 1-V characteristics and complex impedance spectra were investigated under the change of cooling rates. It is found that at cooling rate $200^{circ}$/h, nonlinearity and breakdown voltage reached a maximum value which may show that good intergranular layer is formed as a results of proper cooling rate. Complex Impedance spectras were measured as a function of frequency range 100Hz to 13MHz to determine grain and grainboundary resistance. The semicircles were attributed to the dependence of grain and grainboundary resistance on cooling rates. |
