Abstract:
The MgAl2O4 ceramics were prepared by the conventional
solid-state ceramic route and the dielectric properties
studied in the microwave frequency region (3–13 GHz).
The phase purity and crystal structure were identified using
the X-ray diffraction technique. The MgAl2O4 spinel ceramics
show interesting microwave dielectric properties (εr = 8.75,
Qux f = 68 900 GHz (loss tangent = 0.00017 at 12.3 GHz),
τf =−75 ppm/◦C). The MgAl2O4 has high negative τf, which
precludes its immediate use in practical applications. Hence
the microwave dielectric properties of MgAl2O4 spinels were
tailored by adding different mole fractions of TiO2. The
εr and Q factor of the mixed phases were increased with
the molar addition of TiO2 into the spinel to form mixtures
based on (1−x)MgAl2O4-xTiO2 (x = 0.0−1.0). For x = 0.25 in (1−x)MgAl2O4-xTiO2, the microwave quality factor
reaches a maximum value of Qux f = 105 400 GHz (loss tangent
= 0.00007 at 7.5 GHz) where εr and τf are 11.035 and
−12 ppm/◦C, respectively. The microwave dielectric properties
of the newly developed 0.75MgAl2O4-0.25TiO2 dielectric is
superior to several commercially available low loss dielectric
substrates.
microwave dielectric properties of ceramics based on Ba(Mgv3Ta(2-2x)t3W,t3Tixt3)O3 is investigated as a function of x. The
15 densification as well as dielectric properties deteriorate with increase in the substitution levels of (Ti 1,3W113)333 + at (Ta213)3.33+ site
16 in Ba(Mg113Ta213)03. The rt is approaching zero between x = 0.1 and 0.15 in Ba(Mg it3Ta(2-2,,.)t3W,it3Ti,Tt3)O3 where quality factor is
17 reasonably good (Qu x f = 80,000-90,000 GHz). The Ba(Mg1,3Ta(2_,013W,13Ti,,13)03 with x = 1.0 has e, = 15.4, rf= -25.1 ppm/
18 "C, Q„ x f = 35,400 GHz

Abstract:
This study concentrates the chemical properties of hydrazones due to its chelating capability and their pharmacological applications. Studies cover the preparation of different acid hydrazones and their structural studies and studies on their antimicrobial activity, synthesis and spectral characterization of different complexes of copper oxovanadium, manganese, nickel etc. Effect of incorporation of heterocyclic bases to the coordination sphere, change in the biological activity of acid hydrazones upon coordination, development of X-ray quality single crystals and its X-ray diffraction studies, studies on the redox behavior of the coordinated metal ions and correlation between the stereochemistry and biological activities.
