Abstract

Microwave dielectric ceramics of Bi0.9Ln0.05Li0.05V0.9Mo0.1O4 (Ln = Sm, Nd and La) with a low firing temperature were prepared via conventional solid-state reaction. The phases and microstructures of the ceramics were characterized by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The temperature coefficients of resonant frequency in the three compositions increased as sintering temperature increased. It is worth noting that a phase transition of the Bi0.9Ln0.05Li0.05V0.9Mo0.1O4 (Ln = Sm, Nd and La) ceramics from a monoclinic to a tetragonal scheelite structure was found with an increase in sintering temperature. The densification temperatures of all compositions were below 700°C. Excellent microwave dielectric properties were obtained for the Bi0.9Nd0.05Li0.05V0.9Mo0.1O4 ceramic sintered at 650°C, with a dielectric constant of ~72.2, a quality factor of ~6467 GHz and a temperature coefficient of resonant frequency of ~2.6 ppm/°C. The Bi0.9Ln0.05Li0.05V0.9Mo0.1O4 (Ln = Sm, Nd and La) ceramics are chemically compatible with both Ag and Cu powders at their sintering temperatures, and are thus a promising candidate for use in LTCC technology applications.
