文摘The feldspar-based microwave dielectric ceramic with low relative permittivity(εr)and excellent mechanical properties has attracted much attention in the fifth-generation wireless communication technology.In this work,a series of microwave dielectric ceramic SrAl_(2-x)Ga_(x)Si_(2)O_(8)(0.1≤x≤2.0)was synthesized using the traditional solid-state method.X-ray diffraction pattern indicates that Ga^(3+)can be dissolved into Al^(3+),forming a solid solution.Meanwhile,substitution of Ga^(3+)for Al^(3+)can promote the space group transition from I2/c(0.1≤x≤1.4)to P21/a(1.6≤x≤2.0)with coefficient of thermal expansion(CTE)increasing from 2.9×10^(-6)℃^(-1) to 5.2×10^(-6)℃^(-1).During this substitution,the phase transition can significantly improve the structural symmetry to enhance the dielectric properties and mechanical properties.Rietveld refinement results indicate that Ga^(3+)averagely occupied four Al^(3+)compositions to form solid solution.All ceramics have a dense microstructure and high relative density above 95%.An ultralower of 5.8 was obtained at x=1.6 composition with high quality factor(Q´f)of 50700 GHz and negative temperature coefficients of resonant frequency(tf)of approximately−35×10^(-6)℃^(-1).The densification temperature can be reduced to 940℃by adding 4%(in mass)LiF,resulting in good chemical compatibility with Ag electrode.Meanwhile,negativetf can be tuned to near-zero(+3.7×10^(-6)℃^(-1))by adding CaTiO_(3) ceramic.
