The structure, microwave dielectric properties and low-temperature sintering of a new Li2O-Nb2O5-TiO2 system ceramic with the Li2O: Nb2O5: TiO2 mole ratio of 1.52: 0.36: 1.34 have been investigated in this study. The 1.52Li2O-0.36Nb2O5-1.34TiO2 (LNT) ceramic is composed of two phases, the “M-Phase” and Li2TiO3 solid solution (Li2TiO3ss) phase. This new microwave dielectric ceramic has low intrinsic sintering temperature ( ~ 1100 oC ) and good microwave dielectric properties of middle permittivity (εr ~38.6), high Q×f value up to 7712 GHz, and near zero τf value (~ 4.64 ppm/oC). In addition, the sintering temperature of the LNT ceramics could be lowered down effectively from 1100 oC to 900 oC by adding 1 wt.% B2O3. Good microwave dielectric properties of εr = 42.5, Q*f =6819 GHz and τf = 2.7 ppm/oC could be obtained at 900 oC, which indicate the ceramics would be promising candidates for low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) applications.

A new low sintering temperature microwave dielectric ceramic, Li2ZnTi3O8, was investigated. X-ray diffraction data show that Li2ZnTi3O8 has a cubic structure [P4332(212)] with lattice parameters a = 8.37506 Å, V = 587.44 Å3, and Z = 4 when the sintering temperature is 1050 °C. The Li2ZnTi3O8 ceramic exhibits good microwave dielectric properties with εr about 26.2, Q×f value about 62,000 GHz, and τf about −15 ppm/°C. The addition of BaCu(B2O5) can effectively lower the sintering temperature from 1050 to 900 °C without degrading the microwave dielectric properties. Compatibility with Ag electrode indicates this material can be applied to low temperature cofired ceramic devices.

In this work, the microwave dielectric ceramic (1-m)(Mg0.8Zn0.2)TiO3·m{Ba4Nd28/3Ti18O54·0.18Bi2O3}(m=0.1~0.4)(MZT-BNT) was studied to improve dielectric properties. The results of the dielectric properties, density, XRD and SEM show that the value of m and the sintering temperature affected the structure and properties of the ceramics. MZT-BNT composite system is a two-phase composite system. With the adding of BNT, the dielectric properties of MZT increase significantly. As m value increases, the bulk density and the dielectric constant of the composite system increase, while the quality factor reduces and the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency is close to zero. The dielectric properties of MZT-BNT sintered at 1200 °C (m = 0.3) are εr = 34.03, Qf = 7177 GHz,τf = -3.39 ppm/°C, respectively.

The (Mg0.8Zn0.2)TiO3(MZT) as the foundation is mainly studied to join high dielectric material Ba4Nd28/3Ti18O54·zBi2O3(BNT) to preparation microwave dielectric ceramic 0.7(Mg0.8Zn0.2)TiO3·0.3{Ba4Nd28/3Ti18O54·zBi2O3}(z=0.15, 0.18, 0.2) to improve dielectric properties of MZT. While Bi3+could reduce the sintering temperature to make MZT and BNT composite in a lower sintering temperature (1200~1230 °C). According to the results of the dielectric properties, density, XRD and SEM tests of the obtained ceramics, we can find out that the amount of doped Bi3+ and the sintering temperature affected the structure and properties of the ceramics. The results show that when z=0.18, 0.7(Mg0.8Zn0.2)TiO3·0.3{Ba4Nd28/3Ti18O54·zBi2O3}
