Effect of Zn/Si Ratio on the Microstructural and Microwave Dielectric Properties of Zn2SiO4 Ceramics

Zn2SiO4 ceramics synthesized by the conventional solid‐state method exhibited a low Q×f value, possibly due to the formation of a ZnO second phase. However, with a small ZnO reduction from the Zn2SiO4 ceramics, the ZnO second phase disappeared and grain growth occurred due to the formation of a Si‐r...

Zusammenfassung:Zn2SiO4 ceramics synthesized by the conventional solid‐state method exhibited a low Q×f value, possibly due to the formation of a ZnO second phase. However, with a small ZnO reduction from the Zn2SiO4 ceramics, the ZnO second phase disappeared and grain growth occurred due to the formation of a Si‐rich liquid phase. Specimens with a large grain size exhibited an improved Q×f value. In particular, the ceramics with nominal composition Zn1.8SiO3.8 sintered at 1300°C exhibited improved microwave dielectric properties of ɛr=6.6, Q×f=147 000 GHz, and τf=−22 ppm/°C.
