The permittivity of two primary phases within the Bi2O3–ZnO–Ta2O5 system was measured from 100 Hz to approximately 8.7 GHz. A cubic pyrochlore (Bi3/2Zn1/2)(Zn1/2Ta3/2)O7 phase (a phase) exhibited a dielectric constant of 71 at low frequency which decreased to 64 at approximately 10 GHz. A lower symmetry zirconolite Bi2(Zn1/3Ta2/3)2O7 phase (β phase) was also measured and had a frequency independent dielectric constant of 60. The temperature dependence of the capacitance (τC), measured from −55 to 120 °C, was 78 ppm/°C for the β phase and nonlinear for the α phase having no unique slope. The primary difference in dielectric properties between these two phases was a low-temperature relaxation of the α phase, which is modeled as a basic Debye-type relaxation.

In the present work, the microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of BaTi4O9 ceramics derived from a sol-gel precursor were presented. Density measuring results demonstrated that the largest densities of ceramic sample about 96.7% could be reached by virtue of a cool iso-static press and a sintering process at at 1300 °C for 6 hours. The dielectric constant (εr), quality factor (Q×f) and the temperature coefficients (τf) of the BaTi4O9 ceramic samples were 36.65, 28000 GHz, +20.2 ppm/°C, respectively. XRD, SEM and XPS were used to characterize the microstructure of the ceramics samples. Substantial Ti3+ was proposed to be the cause of dielectric loss.

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 structure, microwave dielectric properties and low-temperature sintering of a new Li2O-Nb2O5-TiO2 system ceramic with the Li2O: Nb2O5: TiO2 mole ratio of 1.52: 0.36: 1.34 have been investigated in this study. The 1.52Li2O-0.36Nb2O5-1.34TiO2 (LNT) ceramic is composed of two phases, the “M-Phase” and Li2TiO3 solid solution (Li2TiO3ss) phase. This new microwave dielectric ceramic has low intrinsic sintering temperature ( ~ 1100 oC ) and good microwave dielectric properties of middle permittivity (εr ~38.6), high Q×f value up to 7712 GHz, and near zero τf value (~ 4.64 ppm/oC). In addition, the sintering temperature of the LNT ceramics could be lowered down effectively from 1100 oC to 900 oC by adding 1 wt.% B2O3. Good microwave dielectric properties of εr = 42.5, Q*f =6819 GHz and τf = 2.7 ppm/oC could be obtained at 900 oC, which indicate the ceramics would be promising candidates for low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) applications.

Effects of Nd substitution with Bi on the microwave dielectric properties of BiNbO4 were studied. Bi1−xNdxNbO4 ceramics sintered at 920–980 °C consisted of orthorhombic and triclinic phases. The amount of triclinic phase increased with the increase in the Nd content, x, and sintering temperature. The apparent density and the dielectric constant decreased with the Nd content, but increased with sintering temperature, reached the peak values at 960 °C and then rapidly decreased. The Q × f0 value was between 11,000 and 13,000 GHz over all sintering temperatures for x < 0.05, but for x ≥ 0.05 it reached the peak value at 950 °C and then rapidly decreased. The temperature coefficient of resonance frequency increased in the positive direction with the Nd content and showed the minimum value of −1.82 ppm/°C for x = 0.025 sintered at 940 °C. However, it rapidly increased in the negative direction for sintering temperature over 960 °C.

The microwave dielectric properties of (300-X) nm MgTiO3/(X) nm CaTiO3 thin films have been investigated with correlation between the interface and stress induced by dielectric layers with heattreatment. As the thickness (X) of CaTiO3 film increased, the dielectric constant increased and the temperature coefficient of the dielectric constant changed from the positive to the negative values by the dielectric mixing rule. The dielectric loss of (300-X) nm MgTiO3/(X) nm CaTiO3 thin films increased with an increase of the thickness (X) of CaTiO3 film because of higher thermal stress induced by the higher thermal expansion coefficient of CaTiO3 than that of MgTiO3.

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 influence of CuO-V2O5-Bi2O3 addition on the sintering behavior, phase composition, microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of Zn3Nb2O8 ceramics were investigated. The co- doping of CuO, V2O5 and Bi2O3 can significantly lower the sintering temperature of Zn3Nb2O8 ceramics from 1150°C to 900°C. The Zn3Nb2O8-0.5wt% CuO-0.5wt% V2O5-2.0wt% Bi2O3 ceramic sintered at 900°C showed a relative density of 97.1%, a dielectric constant (εr) of 18.2, and a quality factor (Q×f) of 36781 GHz. The dielectric properties in this system exhibited a significant dependence on the relative density, content of additives and sintering temperature. The relative density and dielectric constant (εr) of Zn3Nb2O8 ceramics increased with increasing CuO-V2O5-Bi2O3 additions. And also the relative density and dielectric constant of Zn3Nb2O8 ceramics increased by the augment of the sintering temperature.
