Microwave dielectric ceramics with low sintering temperature were obtained by sol-coating method. The effect of glass additives on the sintering temperature and microwave dielectric properties of BaO–Nd2O3–TiO2 ceramics were investigated. The ceramics added with NBS glass have much higher quality factor Qf= 4658.9 GHz. The ceramics added with BBS glass have the highest dielectric constantεr=71.4 and lest temperature coefficient of resonant frequency τf =29.15×10-6/ °C. The ceramics added BBS glass are as follows:εr=58.58, Qf= 2986GHz, τf =29.15×10-6/ °C sintered at 1060°C where the ceramics can be co-fired with copper electrode.

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.

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.

Willemite ceramics (Zn2SiO4) possess excellent millimeter-wave dielectric properties, but it also has a high sintering temperature above 1300°C by traditional solid-state reaction and relatively large negative τf value. Zn2SiO4 nanoparticles synthesized by Sol–Gel method were used to improve the sintering and dielectric properties of the Zn2SiO4 ceramics. Using the nanoparticles, Zn2SiO4 ceramics can be sintered at a low temperature, 1150°C and exhibited improved microwave dielectric properties of εr =6.62, Q × f=24500 GHz, τf =-59ppm/°C. By adding TiO2 with high positive τf value (+450 ppm/°C) and CuO as sintering aid, near zero τf value and low sintering temperature can be achieved. With 11wt% of TiO2 and 5 wt% of CuO, an εr value of 9.3, a Q × f value of 12200GHz and a τf value of -11 ppm/°C were obtained at 1000°C, confirming the promising potential of the CuO-added TiO2-Zn2SiO4 ceramics as candidate materials for low–temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) devices.

The comparison of the low temperature sintering and the microwave dielectric properties of Li2MgSiO4 (LMS) ceramics prepared by citrate gel (CG) route and solid state (SS) ceramic route are discussed in this paper. The LMS prepared using CG route sintered at 1175°C/2 h has εr = 5.3 and tan δ = 1 × 10−3 at 9 GHz. The sintering temperature of LMS is lowered to 950°C with the addition of 5 wt% lithium magnesium zinc borosilicate glass and has εr = 5.6 and tan δ = 2 × 10-3 at 9 GHz. The amount of glass required to lower the sintering temperature of ceramics prepared using CG are slightly higher than that of SS ceramic route. The LMS ceramics prepared using SS ceramic route shows excellent microwave dielectric properties with low sintering temperature compared to CG route.

Microwave dielectric ceramics of Mg4Nb2O9were prepared by the solid-state method and their microwave dielectric properties and microstructure were investigated in this study. The sintering ability and microwave dielectric properties of Mg4Nb2O9ceramics were studied under various sintering temperatures ranging from 1200°C to 1350°C. As the sintering temperature increased from 1200°C to 1350°C, the density values, the εr values and the Q·ƒ values increased and saturated at 1350°C.The ƒ values were ranged from -48.7 to -57.8 ppm/°C. Due to the increased density and appropriate grain growth the Mg4Nb2O9ceramics sintered at 1350°C had the excellent microwave dielectric properties of εr=12.3, Q·ƒ =108,000GHz and ƒ=-55.3ppm/°C.

BaCu(B2O5) (BCB) powder was prepared using BaO,CuO and B2O3 as the main materials. Microwave dielectric ceramics of tungsten–bronze-type BaSm2Ti4O12 (BST) were prepared by doping BCB as the sintering aid. The amount of BCB was varied from 1.0 to 10.0wt.%. The microstructure and dielectric properties of BST were investigated. The sintering temperature of BST ceramics with 6.0wt.% BCB addition can be effectively reduced to 900 oC, about 450 oC lower than that of pure BST ceramics. Good microwave dielectric properties of εr = 62.38, Q×f = 4573 GHz and τf = -27.65 ppm/ oC were achieved.
