Structure,Electrical Conducting and Thermal Expansion Properties of Ln0.6Sr0.4Co0.8Fe0.2O3 （Ln = La,Pr, Nd,Sm） Ceramics

Ln0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.2O3 （Ln=La, Pr, Nd, Sm） perovskite-type complex oxides were synthesized using a glycine-nitrate process, and the structure, electrical conducting and thermal expansion properties of the resulting ceramics were examined with regard to the nature of the lanthanide cations. The results indicated that the La, Pr and Nd specimens had a rhombohedral symmetry, while an orthorhombic structure was determined for the Sm specimen. The pseudo-cubic lattice constant decreased with smaller lanthanide cations. It was found that the electrical conducting properties declined with decreasing lanthanide cation size. Fortunately, all the compositions remained rather high electrical conductivities exceeding 650 Ω ^-1m·cm^-1 in the intermediate temperature range （600-800 ℃）. An appreciable thermal expansion increase at high temperatures was detected for all the compositions. Decreasing the size of the lanthanide cations resulted in an increase of thermal expansion. With respect to the high electrical conductivities, the Ln0.6Sr0.4Co0.8Fe0.2O3 oxides are considered to be acceptable as mixed conducting component in composite cathode designs together with doped ceria electrolytes.

And Sr5LaTi3Nb7O30 ceramic shows a high dielectric constant of 479 with a low dielectric loss of 0.005 at 1MHz . In comparison with Ba-based ceramics with TB structure, the temperature coefficients of the dielectric constant ( τt ) is significantly reduced.     

Dielectric Properties of Ag（Nb1-xTax）O3 and Bi2O3 Doped Ag（Nb1-xTax）O3 Ceramics

Dielectric properties of Ag（Nb1-xTa）O3 and Bi2O3 doped Ag（Nb1-xTax）O3 solid solutions were investigated. The results show that with the increase of Ta content （x）, the sintering temperature increased, and the dielectric loss （tanδ） and the temperature coefficient （αc） decreased. Ag（Nb1-xa）O3 （x=0.4） ceramics sintered at 1 100℃ had the highest permittivity （516.8） and a lower tanδ （0.0021） at 1 MHz, and its temperature coefficient was about 191 ppm/℃. The sintering temperature of Ag（Nb1-xTa）O3 （x=0.4） was lowered by the addition of Bi2O3, and its dielectric properties were improved. Ag（Nb0.6Ta0.4）O3 ceramics with 2.5 wt% Bi203 addition presented the optimum dielectric properties （ε=566, tanδ= 0.0007 and αc≈0ppm/℃） （1 MHz）,     

The Effect of Bi2O3 on the Structure and Microwave Dielectric Properties of Ba6-3xNd8＋2xTi18O54 System（x=2/3）

The structures and dielectric properties of Ba6-3xNd8＋2xTi18O54 system（x=2/3） doped with different contents of Bi2O3, whose final molecular formula is Ba6-3x（Nd1-yBiy）8＋2xTi18O54 were investigated. It is indicated that the dielectric constant increases greatly whereas Q value（f0=4 GHz） decreases with the increase of Bi2O3 content. However, the temperature coefficient could be controlled below 0±30×10^-6/℃ in the experiment. These phenomena are related to the appearance of a new phase, Bi4Ti3O12, which has high dielectric constant. Also, that Bi^3＋（0.13 nm） substitutes for Nd^3＋（0.099 5 nm） will increase the unit cell volume, which will lead to the enlargement of the octahedron B site occupied by Ti^4＋. So the spontaneous polarization of Ti^4＋ ions will be strengthened. Besides, Bi^3＋ will fill up some vacancies which Ba^2＋ or Nd^3＋ ions leave in two A1 sites and four A2 sites. More positive ions polarize, which also contributes to higher dielectric constant. The samples got with the optimium properties are sintered at 1 200 ℃ for 4 h, when y=0.25, ε≈110, Q≈5 400（f0=4 GHz）, TCC=-4.7×10^-6/℃; When y=0.3, ε≈120, Q≈5 000（f0=4 GHz）, TCC=-24×10^-6/℃.

Ba（Fe0．5Nb0．5）O3／Ni复合陶瓷材料介电性能的研究

在氮气气氛中采用传统固相法制备了（1-x）Ba（Fe0.5Nb0.5）O3／xNi（x=0．1,0．2,0．3;BFN／Ni）复相陶瓷,并研究了Ni含量对复相陶瓷晶体结构、显微组织、渗流阈值及介电性能的影响．研究结果表明：在高温烧结过程中,Ni含量为30wt％时,BFN和Ni没有发生化学反应．BFN／Ni复合陶瓷的电阻率随着Ni含量的增加而下降,且在渗流阈值附近,复合材料从绝缘体逐渐变为导体．BFN／Ni复合陶瓷的介电常数会随着Ni含量的增加而急剧增大．在室温下1kHZ条件下,当Ni含量为30wt％时,复合陶瓷材料的介电常数约为1670000,这是由于在导体和绝缘体的相界面处积累了大量的空间电荷,并由此产生界面极化,导致介电常数显著增大,且随着导体含量的增加,这种界面效应更加明显．对于介电常数的增加,可以借助Maxwell—Wagner极化模型来给予解释．

BaTi₄O₉-doped Ba_0.6Sr_0.4TiO₃ (BST) composite ceramics were prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction and their structure, dielectric nonlinear characteristics and microwave dielectric properties were investigated. The secondary phase of the orthorhombic structure Ba₄Ti₁₃O₃₀ is formed among BST composite ceramics with the increase of BaTi₄O₉. At the same time, a duplex or bimodal grains size distribution shows fine grains in a coarse grain matrix. The degree of frequency dispersion of dielectric permittivity below T _m is increased initially and then decreased with respect to BaTi₄O₉. As the BaTi₄O₉ content increases, the tunability of composite ceramics decreases, while the Q value increases. Interestingly, 70 wt% BaTi₄O₉-doped BST has a tunability ∼4.0% (under 30 kV/cm biasing) versus a permittivity ∼68 and quality factor ∼134.1 (at ∼3.2 GHz).
