Abstract Sr5Ta4TiO17 ceramics was processed via solid state mixed oxide sintering route. X-ray diffraction revealed single phase formation of Sr5Ta4TiO17 ceramics that crystallized into an orthorhombic crystal structure with a space group Pnnm with lattice parameters of a = 5.681 Å, b = 32.542 Å and c = 3.968 Å, refined by the least squares method. The unit cell density (ρth) was 6.71 g/cm3. The microstructure consisted of plate-like grains and the average size was increased from 2 μm to 5 μm with an increase in sintering temperature from 1450 °C to 1575 °C. Optimum microwave dielectric properties, i.e. єr ~ 66,Qufo ~ 8500 GHz and τf ~ 180 ppm/°C, were achieved for Sr5TaTiO17 ceramics sintered at 1550 °C for 4 h.

Ba 4 LaTi 0.3 Sn 0.7 O 15 ceramic was prepared through conventional solid state mix oxide route followed by characterization using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) for phase and microstructural investigation. The dielectric properties at low and microwave frequencies were measured using LCR meter and vector network analyzer. XRD results revealed single phase ceramics and the microstructure was comprised of compact grains with size ranging from 4–12 μm. The lattice parameters refined by the least squares method were a = b = 5.7680(2) Å, c = 11.7491(6) Å, V = 337.81 Å3 and Z = 1. Optimum properties i.e., εr~44.6, Qufo~15, 500 GHz and τf~2.05 ppm /° C were achieved for Ba 4 LaTi 0.3 Sn 0.7 Nb 3 O 15 ceramic sintered at 1475°C for 4 h.

AbstractThis study investigates the bulk density, sintering behaviour, and microwave dielectric properties of the MgO-2B2O3 series ceramics synthesised by solid-state reaction. According to the X-ray diffraction and microstructural analyses, the as-prepared MgO-2B2O3 ceramics possess a single-phase structure with a rod-like morphology. The effects of different quantities of H3BO3 and BaCu(B2O5) (BCB) on the bulk density, sintering behaviour, and microwave dielectric properties of the MgO-2B2O3 ceramics were investigated. Accordingly, the optimal sintering temperature was obtained by adding 30 wt% H3BO3 and 8 wt% BCB. We also reduced the sintering temperature to 825 °C. Furthermore, the addition of 40 wt% H3BO3 and 4 wt% BCB increased the quality factor, permittivity, and temperature coefficient of resonance frequency of MgO-2B2O3 to 44,306 GHz (at 15 GHz), 5.1, and −32 ppm/°C, respectively. These properties make MgO-2B2O3 a viable low-temperature co-fired ceramic with broad applications in microwave dielectrics.

Abstract Ce2[Zr1-x(Mg1/3Sb2/3)x]3(MoO4)9 (0.02≤x≤0.10) ceramics were prepared well through the traditional solid-state method. A single phase, belonging to the space group of R-3c, was detected by using X-ray diffraction at sintering temperatures ranging from 700 to 850 °C. The crystallization micro-structural of specimens was examined by applying Scanning electron microscopy. The structural refinement of these samples was investigated in detail by performing the Rietveld refinement method. The intrinsic properties were calculated and explored via far-infrared reflectivity spectroscopy. The correlations between the chemical bonds parameters and microwave dielectric properties were calculated and analyzed by P-V-L theory. Ce2[Zr0.94(Mg1/3Sb2/3)0.06]3(MoO4)9 ceramics with excellent dielectric properties: εr = 10.37, Q×f = 71748 GHz and τf = −13.6 ppm/°C sintered at 725 °C for 6 hours.

Single-phase polycrystalline ceramics in the MO–La2O3–TiO2 (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) system, such as cation-deficient hexagonal perovskites CaLa4Ti4O15, SrLa4Ti4O15, BaLa4Ti4O15, and Ca2La4Ti5O18 and the orthorhombic phases CaLa4Ti5O17 and CaLa8Ti9O31, were prepared through the solid-state ceramic route. The phases and structure of the ceramics were analyzed through x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The microwave dielectric properties of the ceramics were studied using a network analyzer. The investigated ceramics show high εr in the range 42 to 54, high quality factors with Q ×f in the range 16,222 to 50,215 GHz, and low Tf in the range –25 to +6 ppm / °C. These high dielectric constant materials with high Q × f up to 50,215 GHz are suitable for applications where narrow bandwidth and extremely low insertion loss is necessary, especially at frequencies around 1.9 GHz.

R2BaZnO5 (R = Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, and Tm) were synthesized, and the effects of the differences in ionic radii of R ions on the microwave dielectric properties and crystal structure have been investigated by using x-ray powder diffraction. It was shown that the R2BaZnO5compounds have an orthorhombic crystal structure with Pnma (No. 62) and the lattice parameters of the samples increase linearly with the increase in the ionic radii of the R ions. The dielectric constants (εr) of R2BaZnO5sintered at the optimum temperatures vary linearly from 16.1 to 19.3, suggesting that these variations in εr are the result of the differences in the ionic polarizabilities of R ions. Moreover, it is suggested that the variations in the valences of R ions determined by using bond valence sum may exert an influence on quality factor (Qf ), because the values of valences of R ions in R(1)O7 polyhedra and Qf exhibit similar tendencies with changes in the ionic radii of R ions. In the R2O3–BaO–ZnO system, Dy2BaZnO5showed the appropriate microwave dielectric properties: εr = 17.1, Qf = 29669 GHz, and τf = −1.5 ppm/°C.

CaTi1-x(Nb1/2Al1/2)xO3 with x=0.1-0.5 ceramics were processed  through solid state sintering. X-rays diffraction (XRD) patterns of the compositions showed that the samples have orthorhombic crystal structure with symmetry (Pbnm). The symmetry was further confirmed using Raman spectroscopy. A total of 13 Raman modes were detected, which were in agreement with the XRD results. Microstructure analysis of the samples showed porosity in the samples, presumably due to the substitution of Al, having high melting point. As the concentration of Al and Nb increased, relative permittivity (er), quality factor (Q×fo) and temperature coefficient of resonance frequency decreased. Optimum microwave dielectric properties were achieved for the composition x=0.5 sintered at 1650 °C for 8 h i.e., er ~27.09, Q×fo ~17378 GHz and tf ~ -2.5 ppm/°C.

AbstractIn this study, Ca4−xLa2+xTi5−xBxO17 (B = Al, Ga; x = 0, 1) ceramics were processed via a mixed oxide solid state sintering route and characterized using XRD, SEM, EDS and Vector Network Analyzer. Phase analysis of the samples showed single phase formation for the sample x = 0 while secondary phases formed for Ca4−xLa2+xTi5−xBxO17 (B = Al, Ga; x = 1) ceramics. Ca4La2Ti5O17 exhibited ∈r = 74, Q×fo = 14,116 GHz and τf = 157 ppm/°C. The substitution of Ga or Al for Ti at the B-site of Ca4La2Ti5O17 ceramics significantly improved the microwave dielectric properties i.e. Ca3La3Ti4GaO17 and Ca3La3Ti4AlO17 have ∈r = 44, Q×fo = 16,128 GHz and τf = 7.3 ppm/°C and ∈r = 46, Q×fo = 13,754 GHz and τf = −2 ppm/°C, respectively. The microwave dielectric properties of these materials are suitable for high frequency microwave applications.

Abstract The bulk density, sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of MgO-2B2O3 series ceramics synthesized by solid-state reaction method were systematically studied in this paper. X-ray diffraction and microstructural analysis revealed that the as-prepared MgO-2B2O3 ceramics possessed a single-phase structure with rod-like morphology. Through the investigation of the effects of different dosages of H3BO3 and BCB on bulk density, sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of MgO-2B2O3 ceramics, the optimum sintering temperature was obtained at an addition of 30wt%H3BO3 and 8wt%BCB and the sintering temperature was reduced to 825 oC. The addition of 40wt %H3BO3 and 4 wt%BCB increased the quality factor Q×f, permittivity εr and temperature coefficient of resonance frequency τf of MgO-2B2O3 to 44,306 GHz, 5.1 and -32 ppm/oC, respectively, meeting the criteria of low-temperature co-fired ceramics.
