Structure Sequence in Ca(1-x)Nd2x/3TiO3 Ceramics

DOI

Microwave dielectric ceramics are used in communications devices. Such materials need high relative permittivity, high dielectric quality factor and be temperature stable. Important candidates are based on Ca(1-x)Nd2x/3TiO3. Their properties are controlled by the microstructure including domains. By Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction we found evidence for a phase transition from ortho Pbnm to ortho Cmcm at 200-450oC for ceramics with x 0.39) we found a 20°C structure of P2/m with a progression to a fully ordered structure for Ca0.1Nd0.6TiO3 (x = 0.9). The objective of the experiment is to understand the mechanisms controlling microstructure and properties of ceramics in the system Ca(1-x)Nd2x/3TiO3 by determining the structure sequence and transitions.
