Abstract
In the K2Sr4(MgxNb10-x) Li3xO30 system (0≤x≤1.33), two phases, one having a tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structure and the other having a perovskite-type structure, are observed after calcination and sintering. The synthesis of single-phase samples, having either of these structure types, has allowed for the determination of their respective contribution to the system's dielectric properties, specifically ε′r=f (T ) and tgδ=f (T) over the temperature range −60 to 150 °C. Using X-ray and electron diffraction techniques, scanning electron microscope observations and energy dispersive spectroscopy analysis, various A-cation-deficient perovskite phases were characterized, in particular Sr0.8(Mg0.2Nb0.8)O3. The compositional ability of the TTB structure in this system is also correlated to the ε′r=f (T ) curves, which exhibit a broad maximum. © 1998 Kluwer Academic Publishers
