Structure and microwave dielectric properties of ZnTa2O6 ceramics with TiO2 and ZrO2 additions

详细

Ceramic samples based on ZnTa2O₆ and ZnTa₂O₆–MO₂ (M = Ti, Zr) systems have been obtained by the solid state ceramic route. The phase composition and microstructure of samples were investigated. The effect of the aliovalent substitution of ions Zn²⁺ and Ta⁵⁺ by M⁴⁺ (M = Ti, Zr) in the structure of ZnTa₂O₆ on microwave dielectric properties of ceramics was studied. The way of the compensation of the positive temperature coefficient of resonant frequency of dielectric resonators based on ZnTa₂O₆ ceramics with using the aliovalent substitution of cations was proposed. Dielectric resonators with the high temperature stability of the resonant frequency and high dielectric properties in the microwave range based on the ZnTa₂O₆–ZrO₂ system were obtained for application in electronics.
