Preparation, Characterization and Dilectric Properties of Ceramics in the BaO-Nd2O3-TiO2 System

Abstract

The dielectric ceramics BaNd2Ti3Oto, BaNd2Ti4O12 and BaNd2Ti5O14 have been prepared by Conventional solid state ceramic route. The sintered ceramic samples have been characterized by X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The dielectric properties in the microwave frequency range have been measured using conventional microwave dielectric resonator methods. The BaNd2Ti1O10, BaN2Ti4O12 and BaNd2Ti5O14 have dielectric constants (Er) ~ 60, 84 and 77 respectively. They have relatively high quality factors
