Background technology
Microwave dielectric ceramic refers to and to be applied in microwave frequency band (mainly UHF and SHF frequency range) circuit as dielectric material and to complete the pottery of one or more functions, the components and parts such as resonator, wave filter, dielectric substrate and medium wave circuit are widely used as in modern communication, it is the key foundation material of modern communication technology, in portable mobile phone, automobile telephone, cordless telephone, telestar susceptor and military radar etc., there is very important application, in the miniaturization, integrated process of modern communication instrument, just playing increasing effect.
Be applied to the dielectric ceramic of microwave frequency band, the requirement of following dielectric characteristics should be met: (1) seriation DIELECTRIC CONSTANT ε
rto adapt to the requirement of different frequency and different application occasion; (2) high quality factor q value or dielectric loss tan δ to reduce noise, general requirement Qf>=3000GHz; (3) the temperature factor τ of resonant frequency
?little of as far as possible to ensure the thermostability that device has had, general requirement-10/ DEG C≤τ

The sintering temperature of these material systems is generally higher than 1300 ° of C above, can not directly and the low melting point metal such as Ag and Cu burn formation laminated ceramic capacitor altogether.In recent years, along with LTCC Technology (LowTemperatureCo-firedCeramics, the requirement of development LTCC) and the development of microwave multilayer device, researchist both domestic and external has carried out exploring widely and studying to some low fever's system materials, mainly adopt devitrified glass or glassceramic composites system, because low melting glass has relatively high dielectric loss mutually, the existence of glassy phase substantially increases the dielectric loss of material.Therefore development is the emphasis of current research without the low fired microwave dielectric ceramic material of glassy phase.
Can in the process of low fired microwave dielectric ceramic materials in exploration and development of new, the material systems such as the Li based compound that intrinsic sintering temperature is low, Bi based compound, tungstate architecture compound and tellurate architecture compound get the attention and research.The subject matter existed is, the temperature coefficient of resonance frequency of the single-phase microwave dielectric ceramic material of low temperature sintering of most open report is all bigger than normal, cannot ensure the thermostability that device has had to which greatly limits the development of low temperature co-fired technology and microwave multilayer device.
Summary of the invention
