Abstract
The structural, vibrational and microwave dielectric properties of xBa(Zn1/3Ta2/3)O3 - (1-x)La(Zn1/2Ti1/2)O3 [x = 1, 0.7, 0.5, 0.3 and 0] are investigated. The materials are synthesized by the solid-state reaction technique. The crystal structure of the materials is obtained from the Rietveld refinement of the X-ray diffraction (XRD) profile. All other materials except Ba(Zn1/3Ta2/3)O3 (x = 1) are crystallized in monoclinic P21/n symmetry. The crystal structure of Ba(Zn1/3Ta2/3)O3 is trigonal with P-3m1 space group. The vibrational properties of the materials obtained from Raman spectroscopy are correlated with the structural parameters. The microwave dielectric constant εr is maximum for x = 0.5 whereas the quality factor Q.f is maximum for x = 1. The effects of vibrational and structural parameters on the microwave dielectric properties are discussed in detail. The dielectric relaxation and the Ac conductivity of the materials are also studied using the alternating current impedance spectroscopy in the frequency range from 50 Hz to 5 MHz.
期刊介绍:
While ceramics have traditionally been admired for their mechanical, chemical and thermal stability, their unique electrical, optical and magnetic properties have become of increasing importance in many key technologies including communications, energy conversion and storage, electronics and automation. Electroceramics benefit greatly from their versatility in properties including:
-insulating to metallic and fast ion conductivity
-piezo-, ferro-, and pyro-electricity
-electro- and nonlinear optical properties
-feromagnetism.
When combined with thermal, mechanical, and chemical stability, these properties often render them the materials of choice.
The Journal of Electroceramics is dedicated to providing a forum of discussion cutting across issues in electrical, optical, and magnetic ceramics. Driven by the need for miniaturization, cost, and enhanced functionality, the field of electroceramics is growing rapidly in many new directions. The Journal encourages discussions of resultant trends concerning silicon-electroceramic integration, nanotechnology, ceramic-polymer composites, grain boundary and defect engineering, etc.
