| The MgTiO3-CaTiO3 microwave dielectric ceramic material has excellent dielectric properties,and its abundant raw materials and low cost have attracted the attention of a large number of researchers.In this paper,the traditional solid-phase sintering method is used to prepare 0.95MgTiO3-0.05CaTiO3(95MCT)-based microwave dielectric ceramics,the sintering performance and dielectric performance of 0.95MgTiO3-0.05CaTiO3-based microwave dielectric ceramic materials have been improved through methods such as ion substitution,addition of modifiers,and addition of sintering aids.The specific research content and results are as follows:Firstly,the influence of Al2O3 doping on the sintering characteristics,microstructure,phase composition and dielectric properties of 95MCT ceramics was studied.The results show that the doping of Al2O3 increases the bulk density of95MCT ceramics.The bulk density of 95MCT first increases and then decreases with the content of Al2O3.The introduction of Al2O3 generates the Mg Al2O4 phase.The appearance of the Mg Al2O4 phase reduces the dielectric constant of the material,but improving the material quality factor.At the same time,the doping of Al2O3inhibits the formation of Mg Ti2O5 mesophase,and reducing the sintering temperature.When the doping amount of Al2O3 is 0.10 wt%,sintering at 1350℃for4h,the best performance was obtained asεr=18.88,Q×f=62957 GHz(8 GHz),tf=-18.08 ppm/℃。Secondly,the influence of additive MnO2 doped 95MCT ceramics was studied.The results show that the doping of MnO2 increases the volume density of 95MCT microwave dielectric ceramics.The volume density of 95MCT ceramics first increases and then decreases with the increase of MnO2 content.The introduction of MnO2 generates no new phase in 95MCT microwave dielectric ceramics,it forms a solid solution with 95MCT.MnO2 doping improves the quality factor of the material,increasing the dielectric constant of the material.The introduction of MnO2reduces the sintering temperature of 95MCT and improves the dielectric properties effectively.When the doping amount of MnO2 was 0.01wt%,sintering at 1350℃for4h,the best performance was obtained asεr=19.47,Q×f=62480 GHz(8 GHz),tf=-22.14 ppm/℃。Thirdly,the effects of sintering aid SiO2 were studied.The results show that SiO2 doping increases the volume density of 95MCT ceramics.With the increase of SiO2 content,the volume density of 95MCT firstly increases and then decreases.The maximum value is obtained when the doping amount is 2 wt%.The main crystalline phase of 95MCT ceramics after doping with SiO2 is considered to be MgTiO3 and CaTiO3.Doping with SiO2 can reduce the formation of Mg Ti2O5 phase to a certain extent.The introduction of SiO2 can reduce the sintering temperature of95MCT ceramics.When the doping amount of SiO2 was 2wt%,sintering at 1250℃for 4h,the best dielectric properties were obtained as:εr=19.04,Q×f=58189 GHz(8GHz),tf=-18.22 ppm/℃。Finally,the difference between alcohol phase processing and water phase processing was explored.The results show that different media for wet ball milling have no effect on the phase composition of 95MCT-0.1Al2O3-0.01MnO2.The main crystalline phases are MgTiO3 and CaTiO3,and there is no intermediate phase Mg Ti2O5.The 95MCT-0.1Al2O3-0.01MnO2 ceramics prepared under different wet ball milling media exhibits great differences in microscopic morphology.The samples prepared by water processing have a microcrystalline structure with larger crystalline size.while ethanol processing have obvious uniform grain structure.The best dielectric properties of the samples prepared by ethanol processing are Q×f=59480 GHz(8 GHz),εr=19.11,tf=-17.5278 ppm/℃.The best dielectric properties of the samples prepared by water processing are Q×f=55166 GHz(8GHz),εr=20.34,tf=-20.0463 ppm/℃。... |
