Abstract
AgNbO3 powders and ceramics were prepared by aqueous solution-gel method. The phase evolution of the powders was investigated by TG/DSC and XRD. The results showed that the pure AgNbO3 phase was obtained at 600 °C without special treatment. The sintering behavior and dielectric properties of the AgNbO3 ceramics were also investigated. It showed the dense ceramics were obtained as lower as 925 °C, which had the excellent dielectric properties with the permittivity of 291 and dielectric loss of about 1.7% at 1 MHz. The coarse grains were observed for the sample sintered over 975 °C, and then they decreased with the sintering temperature further increasing to 1,050 °C.
