摘要
By adding a low-softening-point Li2O-B2O3-SiO2-CaO-Al2O3 (LBSCA) glass, the voltage-tunable Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 (BST64) ceramics can be densified at 900 degrees C, which is 400-500 degrees C lower than the temperature for producing the pure BST64. This is caused by liquid-phase sintering and an interfacial reaction taking place at the interface of LBSCA/Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3. For the samples with 10-35 vol % LBSCA glass, a high relative sintered density of >95% is obtained at 900 degrees C and the resulting dielectric composites have a dielectric constant and loss at 1 MHz in the ranges of 1040-145 and 0.4-1.0%, respectively. The voltage tunability of the resulting LBSCA+BST64 dielectric at 1 MHz and 1 kV/mm is in the range of 0.8-8%, which exhibits a decreasing trend with increasing LBSCA content.
