Effect of H3BO3 Coating on the Microwave Dielectric Properties of BZN Ceramics

Article Preview

Abstract:

(Bi1.5Zn0.5)(Zn0.5Nb1.5)O7 (BZN) ceramic samples were prepared by solid state reaction. B2O3 was introduced by liquid coating technology with H3BO3 solution in the BZN ceramic specimen to reduce its sintering temperature. The sintering behavior, phase composition and dielectric properties of ceramics were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and vector network analyzer. The (Bi1.5Zn0.5)(Zn0.5Nb1.5)O7 ceramic composite could be sintered well at 900°C for 3h when 0.9M/l H3BO3 was added and showed good dielectric properties of εr=150,Q×f=228,τf=-362ppm/°C.
