Microwave dielectric properties and the relationship between the temperature coefficient of the dielectric constant (τ ɛ) and the tolerance factor were investigated in (Sr0.2Ca0.8) (Ti1–xZrx)O3 ceramics. The τɛ increased linearly as the tolerance factor decreased from 0.984 to 0.929 in the whole composition range of the (Sr0.2Ca0.8) (Ti1–xZrx)O3 solid solution. At the composition of (Sr0.2Ca0.8) (Ti0.04Zr0.96)O3, the dielectric constant was 34 and Q · f was 10,938 GHz and the temperature coefficient of the resonance frequency (τɛ) was supposed to be near zero.

Modification of Pb0.5Ca0.5[(Mg1/3Nb2/3)0.5Ti0.5]O3 dielectric ceramics was performed by up to 20 mol% La substitution for Pb and Ca. The temperature coefficient of dielectric constant was significantly reduced by the present approach, while an increased Qf factor was achieved. Good microwave dielectric properties were obtained in a composition Pb0.425Ca0.425La0.1[(Mg1/3Nb2/3)0.5Ti0.5]O3: ε = 125; Qf = 3150 GHz; calculated temperature coefficient of resonant frequency δf = +253 ppm/°C.

Solid solutions of (Mg4−xMnx)Nb2O9 (MMN), which have a corundum-type structure, showed a single phase over the entire composition range, and lattice parameters of MMN linearly increased with increased composition x. From the calculation of cation–oxygen bonds in NbO6 and MO6 (M = Mg and Mn) octahedra, it was found that the covalency of the Nb–O bond was decreased by the Mn substitution for Mg; the molecular orbital calculation in (NbM12O45)−61 cluster models also revealed that the covalency of the Nb–O bond in the (NbMn12O45)−61 cluster model is smaller than that of the Nb–O bond in the (NbMg12O45)−61 cluster model. This result is attributed to the differences in the density of state, which arise from the overlap population of Mg-3d, Mn-3d, Nb-5s, and O-2p orbitals. The dielectric constant and Q⋅f values varied from 11 to 16 and from 210,000 to 50,000 GHz, respectively. Thus, it is considered that these variations in the microwave dielectric properties may be related to the covalency of the cation–oxygen bonds.

The microstructures and microwave dielectric properties of temperature compensated composite ceramics (1-x)(Na0.5La0.5)TiO3+xCeO2 doped with 1wt%CuO were investigated. Dense and mixed phase samples were produced in the range of 0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.9. As x value increases the Qf increases nonlinearly while the dielectric constant decreases almost linearly. The compensated τf value is obtained in 0.1(Na0.5La0.5)TiO3 + 0.9CeO2 + 1wt%CuO ceramic with the Qf and εr being 8240GHz and 32.0 respectively.

Ba6-3xSm8+2xTi18O54 microwave dielectric ceramics were modified by Nd/Bi co-substitution for Sm on A-site. According to XRD and SEM analysis, a single-phase solid solution with new tungsten bronze-type structure was formed in low-Bi-substituted region. Bi was effective on increasing dielectric constant, while led to a decreased Qf value and an increased negative tf. The co-substituting approach exhibited the advantage in improving e and compensating Qf and tf value.

The microwave dielectric properties of Ca[(Li1/3Nb2/3)1−xMx]O3−δ (M = Sn, Ti, 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) ceramics were investigated. In general, the ceramics prepared were multiphase materials. However, single-phase specimens having orthorhombic perovskite structure similar to CaTiO3 could be obtained in the vicinity of Sn = 0.2 to 0.3, and Ti = 0.2. As Sn concentration increased, the dielectric constant (εr) decreased and the quality factor (Q) significantly increased within the limited Sn concentration. As Ti concentration increased, the dielectric constant (εr) increased, the quality factor (Q) decreased, and the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τf) changed from a negative to positive value. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency of 0 ppm/°C was realized at Ti = 0.2. The Q · fo value and εr for this composition were found to be 26100 GHz and 38.6, respectively.

The B2O3-CuO oxide mixture (abbreviated as BC) was selected to lower the sintering temperature of (Ca0.9375Sr0.0625)0.25(Li0.5Sm0.5)0.75TiO3 (abbreviated as CSLST) microwave dielectric ceramics by solid sate reaction technique. The effects of BC doping amounts on the crystal structure, microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of the ceramics were investigated. For the ceramic sample with the composition of CSLST + 5 wt% BC, its sintering temperature was reduced to 1000 °C as compared to 1200 °C for pure CSLST. In addition to the obtained good microwave dielectric properties as follows: εr = 80.4, Q×f = 1380 GHz, τf = -32.89 ×10-6/°C, this ceramic was a desirable high-permittivity microwave dielectric candidate for low-temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) applications.

The effects of Bi substitution for Nd in Ba6−3xNd8+2xTi18O54 (x = 2/3) solid solution upon the microstructures and microwave dielectric properties were investigated. The solid solubility limit of Bi in Ba6−3xNd8+2xTi18O54 (x = 2/3) solid solution was about 15 mol%, the same as that for x = 0.5, and densification of the present solid solutions could be performed well at lower temperatures. However, the variation tendency of microwave dielectric properties with composition in the present ceramics quite differed from that for x = 0.5: (1) The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency in the present ceramics showed a continuous variation from positive to negative and did not indicate extreme value at the solid solubility limit. (2) Near-zero temperature coefficient of resonant frequency combined with high-ε and high-Qf values could be obtained in the present ceramics, while that for x = 0.5 had a lower limit of +15 ppm/°C. (3) The dielectric constant also showed a continuous increase for the present compositions, while that in x = 0.5 had an extreme at solid solubility limit. Ceramics with composition of Ba6−3x(Nd0.85,Bi0.15)8+2xTi18O54 (x = 2/3) showed excellent dielectric properties of ε = 99.1, Qf = 5290 GHz, and τf = −5.5 ppm/°C.

The relationship between the character of the B-site cation–oxygen bond and the microwave dielectric properties in perovskites dielectric materials was studied in this paper. The atomic net charge of CaTiO3 (CT) and Ca(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3 (CZN) was calculated respectively. The calculating result implies that the covalency of B-O bonds in CZN is stronger than that in CT. This predicted that the dielectric constant and loss of the ceramics will decrease after CZN incorporated in CT. To confirme the prediction, (1-x)CT-xCZN microwave dielectric ceramics were prepared by solid state reaction method with ZnNb2O6 as precursor. The structure analysis in terms of tolerance factor gives an identical result as calculation. The microwave dielectric properties, such as dielectric constants, Q×f values and τf were studied as a function of composition. With x increasing from 0.2 to 0.8, the dielectric constant linearly decreases from 109 to 49.37, the Q×f value increases from 8,340 to 13,200 GHz, and τf decreases from 321 to -18 ppm/°C. The properties trends are consistent with the previous calculation results, and confirm the relationship between the character of B-O bond and dielectric properties.

The sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of the (Ca0.9375Sr0.0625)0.25(Li0.5Sm0.5)0.75TiO3 (CSLST) ceramics doped with different amounts of Li2O-B2O3-SiO2-CaO-Al2O3 (LBSCA) glass were investigated. The sintering temperature of the CSLST ceramics can be effectively reduced over 200oC due to the addition of LBSCA glass. For the 5 wt% LBSCA-doped CSLST ceramics, which are sintered at only 1000 oC for 5 h, show optimum microwave dielectric properties as follows: εr=84.74, Qf=2446 GHz and τf=-12.48 ppm/oC.
