Abstract
MgNb2O6 ceramics doping with different amounts of LiF (0–0.4 wt%) were prepared via a solid-state reaction method. The sintering behavior, phase evolution, microstructure, and microwave dielectric properties of the LiF-doped MgNb2O6 ceramics were fully investigated. The results showed that with the increase of LiF from 0 to 0.4 wt%, the sintering temperature of MgNb2O6 ceramic decreased significantly from 1300 to 1100 °C, as the sintering activation energy of the MgNb2O6 ceramic was reduced. A second-phase LiNbO3 was identified when the amount of LiF reached 0.2 wt%, leading to an obvious deterioration to the Qf value of MgNb2O6 ceramic. MgNb2O6 ceramic doped with 0.1 wt% LiF exhibited excellent microwave dielectric properties with εr = 20.7, Qf = 90,300 GHz, and τf = − 71.3 ppm/°C, after sintering at 1175 °C for 4 h.
