Abstract

Microwave dielectric properties of Nd[(Zn 1-xCo x) 0.5Ti 0.5]O 3 (0.025 ≤ x ≤ 0.1) ceramics have been investigated. Solid solutions were formed for the ceramic system in the given compositional range. With x increasing from 0.025 to 0.1, dielectric constant value (ε r) decreased slightly from 33.4 to 32.2, and τ f value increased from -30.3 to -31.9 ppm/°C. Dielectric loss of the Nd(Zn 0.5Ti 0.5)O 3 ceramics could be decreased by the small amount of Co substitution. Excellent microwave dielectric properties of ε r = 32.6, Q × f = 185,300 GHz and τ f = -31.3 ppm/°C were obtained for the Nd[(Zn 0.925Co 0.075) 0.5Ti 0.5]O 3 (x = 0.075) ceramics sintered at 1390°C for 4 h.
