Low-temperature sintered Ca[(Li1/3Nb2/3)0.8Ti0.2]O3-δ (CLNT) microwave dielectric ceramics with V2O5 and ZnO additives were prepared by the conventional solid state reaction method. The sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of CLNT ceramics were investigated. The main diffraction peaks of all the specimens sintered at the temperature under 1150◦C split due to the coexistence of the non-stoichiometric phase and stoichiometric phase, which all possess CaTiO3-type perovskite structures. ZnO and V2O5 combined additives lowered the sintering temperature of CLNT ceramics from 1150◦C to 1090◦C. and the Qf values were improved from 18,210 GHz to 20,740 GHz. The CLNT ceramics with 4 wt% ZnO addition sintered at 1090◦C showed good microwave dielectric properties with εr ~39.7, Qf ~20,740 GHz, τf ~8.6 ppm/◦C. The relationship between dielectric properties and the sintering behavior was also discussed.

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.

0.95MgTiO3-0.05CaTiO3 (95MCT) microwave dielectric ceramics was prepared solid-state reaction method. Effect of H3BO3 additive and forming pressure on sintering process, microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of 95MCT were investigated. The result showed that the additive of H3BO3 can lower the sintering temperature of 95MCT, and improve the densification of 95MCT. MgTi2O5 was found as mesosphere, which can be effectively suppressed through the additive of H3BO3. Excellent microwave dielectric properties of ceramics was obtained when the H3BO3 additive was 0.50wt%. The best value of dielectric constant (εr), quality factor (Q×f) and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τf ) of 21.54, 67,286GHz and-4.1ppm/oC was obtained for the ceramics with sintering 1220oC for 2h.

In the present work, a novel low temperature firing Bi 3 FeMo 2 O 12 ceramic was synthesized via the solid-state reaction method. The monoclinic Bi 3 FeMo 2 O 12 phase can be formed at a low temperature 670°C. A relative density above 96% can be obtained when sintering temperature is above 800°C. The Bi 3 FeMo 2 O 12 ceramic sintered at 845°C for 2 h shows high microwave dielectric performance with a permittivity ~27.2, a Qf value of 14,500 GHz and a temperature coefficient of -80 ppm/°C. It might be a candidate for low temperature co-fired ceramics technology.

Ca 5-x Zn x Nb 4 TiO 17 ceramics with 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4 were prepared through a solid-state reaction method. Effects of zinc substitution on sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of Ca 5 Nb 4 TiO 17 ceramics were investigated. The sintering temperature was significantly lowered from 1480°C for pure Ca 5 Nb 4 TiO 17 to 1260°C for x = 0.4. The microwave dielectric properties are strongly correlated with the composition. It is worth noting that the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τf) displays a tendency toward positive value, ranging from −126.4 ppm/°C to −8.6 ppm/°C. A temperature stable microwave ceramic with dielectric constant of 52 and Q × f value of 9937 GHz is achieved at x = 0.4 and is a potential candidate for application as cores in dielectrically loaded antennas.

Microstructures and microwave dielectric properties of Ca(Sm0.5Nb0.5)O3 ceramics, prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction method, were systematically investigated by varying calcining temperature, sintering temperature and cooling rate. The XRD result showed that a single Ca(Sm0.5Nb0.5)O3 phase could be synthesized at a calcining temperature of 1200 °C. Optimized combination of microwave dielectric properties of εr = 22.36, Q×f = 18030 GHz and τf = -31.2 ppm/°C was obtained for furnace-cooled Ca(Sm0.5Nb0.5)O3 ceramics sintered at 1550 °C for 4 h. However, some microcracks were found from the microstructures of the furnace-cooled specimens. Further, the Q×f value could be increased by controlling the cooling rate during the sintering process due to the disappearance of microcracks in the final material. With a cooling rate of 2 °C/min, Ca(Sm0.5Nb0.5)O3ceramics exhibited an enhanced Q×f value of 37130 GHz.

Ba4Sm9.33Ti18O54(BST) ceramics were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction method. The effect of CuO-Bi2O3co-doping on the sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of BST ceramics has been investigated. The results indicated that when the total addition of CuO-Bi2O3doping agent was 1.0wt%, the sintering temperature of BST ceramics was reduced to 1240°C as a result of liquid-phase sintering effect derived from CuBi2O4. When the total addition of CuO-Bi2O3was fixed at 1.0wt%, the microwave dielelctric properties of BST were improved by adjusting the mass percentage of Bi2O3. With the increase of Bi2O3amount from 20wt% to 80wt%, the dielectric constant (εr) decreased, the quality factor (Q•f) increased and the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τf) shifted from negative value to positive value. The excellent microwave dielectric properties of εr=82.51, Q•f=7878GHz and τf=+6.02ppm/ were obtained for the sample with Bi2O3amount of 80wt% when sintered at 1240°C for 3h.

Ba(Co1/3(Nb1-xW5x/6)2/3)O3 (0<x≤0.05) (BCWN) microwave dielectric ceramics have been prepared by solid-state reaction method. The microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of BCWN ceramics were investigated systematically in this paper. The results show that the sintering temperature decreases with the substitution of W6+. The Ba(Co1/3(Nb1-xW5x/6)2/3)O3 solid solution is formed with the small substitution of W6+ (x≤0.01). With the increase of x, the impurity phase BaWO4 occurrs and the grains become less homogeneous. Combined with the analysis of X-Ray Diffraction, the cation ordering degree on B-site increases in the sample of x=0.01, which leads to the decrease of the dielectric loss. However, the second phase BaWO4 inhibits the formation of the ordered structure with the reduction of sinterability. Due to the formation of BaWO4, the values of εr and τf of all samples decrease subsequently. The optimized microwave dielectric properties of Ba(Co1/3(Nb1-xW5x/6)2/3)O3 ceramics were obtained in the samples of x=0.01: εr=33.8, Q×f =110761 GHz, τf = -17 ppm/°C.

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.

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.
