Preparation and Dielectric Properties of Dy-B-Si-O Glass-Doped Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 Ceramics
Dy-B-Si-O glass-doped Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 (BST) ceramics based on sol-gel-derived powders were prepared. Effects of B2O3-SiO2 in Dy-B-Si-O glass on phase structure, microstructures and dielectric properties of the BST ceramics were investigated. The results showed that the main crystal phase of BST ceramics with appropriate B2O3-SiO2 in Dy-B-Si-O glass had a perovskite type structure. Grain size decreased and density increased compared with pure BST ceramics. However, the secondary phase Ba2TiSi2O8 was detected when the percentage of B2O3-SiO2 in Dy-B-Si-O glass additive was over 7 mol%, and increased with the increasing of B2O3-SiO2. With the increasing of B2O3-SiO2, the dielectric constant increased firstly and then decreased, the dielectric loss decreased firstly and then increased, the Curie temperature moved to lower temperature firstly and then to higher temperature.
