Low temperature sintering microwave dielectric ceramic Li 2w 2zn 3o 10and preparation method thereof

Technical field

The present invention relates to dielectric ceramic material, particularly relate to the microwave device such as medium substrate, resonator and wave filter using in microwave frequency, and the dielectric ceramic material of ceramic condenser or thermo-compensation capacitor and preparation method thereof.

Background technology

Microwave dielectric ceramic refers to and is applied in microwave frequency band (being mainly UHF and SHF frequency range) circuit as dielectric material and completes the pottery of one or more functions, in modern communication, be widely used as the components and parts such as resonator, wave filter, dielectric substrate and medium guided wave loop, it is the key foundation material of modern communication technology, there is very important application at aspects such as portable mobile phone, automobile telephone, cordless telephone, telestar susceptor and military radars, in the miniaturization of modern communication instrument, integrated process, just bringing into play increasing effect.

Be applied to the dielectric ceramic of microwave frequency band, should meet the requirement of following dielectric characteristics: (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 are to reduce noise, general requirement Qf>=3000 GHz; (3) the temperature factor τ of resonant frequency _?the thermostability to ensure that device has had close to zero as far as possible, general requirement-10/ DEG C≤τ _?≤+10 ppm/ DEG C.From late 1930s, just someone attempts dielectric substance to be applied to microwave technology in the world.

According to relative permittivity ε _rsize from use frequency range different, conventionally the microwave-medium ceramics being developed and developing can be divided into 4 classes.

(1) ultralow dielectric microwave dielectric ceramic, main representative is Al ₂o ₃-TiO ₂, Y ₂baCuO ₅, MgAl ₂o ₄and Mg ₂siO ₄deng, its ε _r≤ 20, quality factor q × f>=50000GHz, τ _?≤ 10 ppm/ ° C.Be mainly used in microwave base plate and high-end microwave device.

(2) low ε _rwith the microwave dielectric ceramic of high Q value, be mainly BaO-MgO-Ta ₂o ₅, BaO-ZnO-Ta ₂o ₅or BaO-MgO-Nb ₂o ₅, BaO-ZnO-Nb ₂o ₅system or the composite system MWDC material between them.Its ε _r=25～30, Q=(1～2) × 10 ⁴(under the GHz of f>=10), τ _?≈ 0.Be mainly used in the microwave communication equipments such as the direct broadcasting satellite of f >=8 GHz as dielectric resonance device.

(3) medium ε _rwith the microwave dielectric ceramic of Q value, be mainly with BaTi ₄o ₉, Ba ₂ti ₉o ₂₀(Zr, Sn) TiO ₄deng the MWDC material that is base, its ε _r=35 ~ 40, Q=(6～9) × 10 ³(under f=3～-4GHz), τ _?≤ 5 ppm/ ° C.Be mainly used in microwave military radar in 4～8 GHz range of frequency and communication system as dielectric resonance device.

(4) high ε _rand the lower microwave dielectric ceramic of Q value is mainly used in civilian mobile communcations system in 0.8～4GHz range of frequency, this is also the emphasis of microwave dielectric ceramic research.Since the eighties, the people such as Kolar, Kato find and have studied perovskite-like tungsten bronze type BaO-Ln in succession ₂o ₃-TiO ₂series (Ln=La, Sm, Nd or Pr etc. are called for short BLT system), complex perovskite structure CaO-Li ₂o-Ln ₂o ₃-TiO ₂series, lead base series material, Ca _1-xln _2x/3tiO ₃be contour ε _rmicrowave dielectric ceramic, the wherein BaO-Nd of BLT system ₂o ₃-TiO ₂material dielectric constant reaches 90, lead base series (Pb, Ca) ZrO ₃specific inductivity reaches 105.

The sintering temperature of these material systems is generally higher than 1300 ° of C above, can not be directly and the low melting point metal such as Ag and Cu burn altogether formation laminated ceramic capacitor.In recent years, along with LTCC Technology (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics, 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 to adopt devitrified glass or glass-ceramic composite system, because low melting glass has relatively high dielectric loss mutually, the existence of glassy phase has improved the dielectric loss of material greatly.Therefore developing without the low fired microwave dielectric ceramic material of glassy phase is the emphasis of current research.

Explore with development of new can the process of low fired microwave dielectric ceramic materials in, the material systems such as Li based compound, Bi based compound, tungstate architecture compound and tellurate architecture compound that intrinsic sintering temperature is low get the attention and study, but the subject matter existing is, the temperature coefficient of resonance frequency of the single-phase microwave dielectric ceramic material of low temperature sintering of most open reports is all bigger than normal, cannot ensure the thermostability that device has had; And also cannot predict by existing theory or technology up to now the τ of monophase materials _?value, this has limited the development of low temperature co-fired technology and microwave multilayer device to a great extent.

We are to consisting of Li ₂w ₂zn ₃o ₁₀new compound carried out sintering characteristic and Study on microwave dielectric property, found that such pottery have excellent comprehensive microwave dielectric property simultaneously sintering temperature lower than 700 °c, can realize low temperature co-fired with Ag, can be widely used in the manufacture of the microwave devices such as various medium substrates, resonator and wave filter, can meet the needs of low temperature co-fired technology and microwave multilayer device.
