Dielectric Properties of Ceramics in Ba (Co1/3 Nb2/3)O3–Ba(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3 Solid Solution

The dielectric properties of the Ba (Co_1/3 Nb_2/3)O₃–Ba(Zn_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃ system were determined. Ba (Co_1/3 Nb_2/3)O₃–Ba(Zn_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃ has a complex perovskite structure, a high dielectric constant, a low dielectric loss, and a low temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency. A solid-solution ceramic with 0.7Ba (Co_1/3 Nb_2/3)O₃·0.3 Ba(Zn_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃ has a dielectric constant of K=33.5, Q=11000 at 6.5 GHz, and a temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency of τ_f=0 ppm/°C. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency can be varied by changing the composition. The Q values of the ceramics can be increased by annealing in a nitrogen atmosphere. These ceramics can be used for resonant elements and stabilized oscillators.
