Perovskite ceramics are a common microwave dielectric material, but the development and application of this material has been limited by the high, positive resonance frequency temperature coefficient and sintering temperature. Therefore, adjusting the temperature coefficient of the resonance frequency and reducing the sintering temperature have become important research directions. In this work, 0.95(Ca0.88Sr0.12)TiO3–0.05(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3 ceramics (referred to as 0.95CST-0.05BNT) were prepared by standard solid-state reaction and microwave sintering. Microwave sintering greatly shortened the sintering period and holding time. Moreover, the 0.95CST–0.05BNT ceramics showed more uniform grain size distribution, and microwave sintering reduced energy consumption in the experiment. Therefore, the temperature coefficient of the resonance frequency of MWS ceramics was reduced by 119 × 10−6 /℃. All of the ceramics, which were sintered at 1300 °C for 40 minutes, showed optimal microwave dielectric properties: εr = 187.6, Q × f = 8958 GHz, and τf = +520 × 10−6 /°C.

The (1–x)Ca0.61La0.26TiO3-xNd(Mg0.5Ti0.5)O3 [(1–x)CLT-xNMT, x = 0.35~0.60] ceramics were prepared via microwave sintering. The effects of sintering temperature and composition on the phase formation, microstructure, and microwave dielectric properties were investigated. The results show that the microwave sintering process requires a lower sintering temperature and shorter sintering time of (1–x)CLT-xNMT ceramics than conventional heating methods. All of the (1–x)CLT-xNMT ceramics possess a single perovskite structure. With the increase of x, the dielectric constant (ε) shows a downward trend; the quality factor (Qf) drops first and then rises significantly; the resonance frequency temperature coefficient (τf) keeps decreasing. With excellent microwave dielectric properties (ε = 51.3, Qf = 13,852 GHz, τf = −1.9 × 10−6/°C), the 0.65CLT-0.35NMT ceramic can be applied to the field of mobile communications.

The effect of V2O5 as additives of different content on the densification, microstructure and dielectric properties of Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (BMN) was investigated. The sintering temperature of the V2O5-doped BMN samples were lowered down to 1250 oC with 0.5wt% V2O5 compared to pure BMN ceramics where the sintering temperature was 1500 oC at least. The εr and τf was not influenced much, while the Q value was affected by the sintering temperature and the V2O5 additives. The Q value decreased with decrease of the sintering temperature and the V2O5 addition increasing due to the bulk density and the second phase. Good microwave dielectric properties of Q·f=42100GHz, εr =31.7 and temperature coefficient of resonance frequency (τf) =22.7ppm/ oC were obtained with 0.25 wt% V2O5 sintered at 1350 oC for 4h.

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 effects of CuO and V2O5 addition on sintering behaviors and microwave dielectric properties of 0.7Ca2P2O7-0.3TiO2 ceramics were investigated. With CuO and V2O5 addition, the sintering temperature of 0.7Ca2P2O7-0.3TiO2 can be effectively reduced from 1150 to 950oC. The dielectric constant of the low fired 0.7Ca2P2O7-0.3TiO2 ceramics was not significantly changed while the quality factor was affected by additives. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency value was increased in negative value with the additive contents. V2O5 and CuO additives effectively improved the densification and dielectric properties of 0.7Ca2P2O7-0.3TiO2 ceramics. The correlation between the phase constituents and the dielectric properties was investigated with additive contents.

AbstractA melilite Ba2CuGe2O7 ceramic was characterized by low sintering temperature and moderate microwave dielectric properties. Sintered at 960 °C, the Ba2CuGe2O7 ceramic had a high relative density 97%, a low relative permittivity (εr) 9.43, a quality factor (Q×f) of 20,000 GHz, and a temperature coefficient of resonance frequency (τf) −76 ppm/°C. To get a deep understanding of the relationship between composition, structure, and dielectric performances, magnesium substitution for copper in Ba2CuGe2O7 was conducted. Influences of magnesium doping on the sintering behavior, crystal structure, and microwave dielectric properties were studied. Mg doping in Ba2CuGe2O7 caused negligible changes in the macroscopic crystal structure, grain morphology, and size distribution, while induced visible variation in the local structure as revealed by Raman analysis. Microwave dielectric properties exhibit a remarkable dependence on composition. On increasing the magnesium content, the relative permittivity featured a continuous decrease, while both the quality factor and the temperature coefficient of resonance frequency increased monotonously. Such variations in dielectric performances were clarified in terms of the polarizability, packing fraction, and band valence theory.

The effect of BaCu(B2O5) (BCB) on the sintering temperature and microwave dielectric properties of Ba(Nd0.8Bi0.2)2Ti4O12 (BNBT) ceramics was investigated. The sintering temperature of the BNBT ceramics was significantly reduced from 1300 to 900 °C. Due to adding BCB into Ba(Nd1–xBix)2Ti4O12, the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency can be adjusted to zero with BCB content increasing. Good microwave dielectric properties of quality factor (Q×f) = 2600 GHz, εr = 75, and τf = 5 ppm/°C were obtained for BNBT with 7 wt% BCB sintered at 925 °C for 2 h, which make it a potential candidate for low temperature cofired ceramics applications.
