Abstract
The tungstenbronze-type-like Single-phase polycrystalline ceramics Ba6−3xSm8+2xTi18O54 (x = 0.5) doping with Ca ions had been prepared through the conventional solid-state reaction process. The phases and structure of the ceramics were analyzed through X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The microwave dielectric properties of the ceramics were studied using a network analyzer. In this paper, the quality factor (Q × f) by substituting Ca ions for Ba ions in (Ba1−αCaα) Sm2Ti4O12 solid solutions in A1-sites was reported. In addition, the relationship between crystal structure and microwave dielectric properties was discussed from the viewpoint of structural formula and occupational state of large cations such as Ba, Ca ions in A1-sites.
