Abstract: The effects of Mn doping on the phase composition and dielectric properties of (1-x)BaO·xSrO·0.7TiO2·0.3Nb2O5 (BSTN) composite ceramics was investigated. The results showed that the dielectric constants of 0.7BaO·0.3SrO·(0.7-z)TiO2·0.3Nb2O5·zMnO2 (BSTNM) composite ceramics basically decreases as the content of doped MnO2 increases at the same applied frequency, while tanδ decreases when value z≤0.01 but increases when value z>0.01. The phase transition temperature of tungsten bronze phase in BSTNM composite ceramics increases with the increase of value z.

Abstract: The phase composition of (1-x)BaO·xSrO·0.7TiO2·0.3Nb2O5 (BSTN) composite ceramics was analyzed by XRD, and the effect of Sr/Ba ratio on the dielectric properties of BSTN was investigated by impedance analyzer. The results showed that any sample with different x value contained two phases-the perovskite phase and the tungsten bronze phase. The dielectric constants of BSTN basically decreased while the tanδ increased with the increase in x value. Both dielectric constant and tanδ decreased with the applied frequency increased for the same x value. There were two Curie points for BSTN composite ceramics. The first one belonging to the perovskite phase decreased with the increase in x value, but the second one belonging to the tungsten bronze phase kept almost constant at about 300°C.
