Microwave dielectric properties of $0.85CaWO_4-0.15LnNbO_4$ (Ln = La, Sm) ceramics were investigated as a function of the sintering temperature and $Li_2WO_4$ content from 0.8 wt.% to 1.5 wt.%. A single phase with tetragonal scheelite structure was obtained at a given composition ranges. For the specimens with $Li_2WO_4$, the sintering temperature could be effectively reduced from $1150^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$ due to the enhancement of sinterability. Dielectric constant (K) of the specimens with $LaNbO_4$ and $SmNbO_4$ was increased with the increase of sintering temperature and/or $Li_2WO_4$ content. However, K of the specimens with $LaNbO_4$ was higher than that of $SmNbO_4$ due to the larger dielectric polarizability $(\alpha)$ of $LaNbO_4$ ($18.08{\AA}$) than that of $SmNbO_4$ ($16.75{\AA}$). With an increase of $Li_2WO_4$ content, Qf value of the specimens with $SmNbO_4$ was decreased, while that of the specimens with $LaNbO_4$ was increased. Temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (TCF) was increased with the increase of $Li_2WO_4$ content.

This study was focused on the effect of sintering additive and particle size on the low temperature sintering of $0.85CaWO_4-0.15SmNbO_4$ ceramics. With an increase of $CaV_2O_6$ content, the sintering temperature of the specimens was reduced from $1150^{\circ}C\;to\;800^{\circ}C$. The dielectric constant (K) and Qf value were increased with $CaV_2O_6$ content. These results are due to the enhancement of the density by the liquid phase sintering. Temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (TCF) was slightly shifted to the positive value with $CaV_2O_6$ content. Typically, K of 12.64, Qf of 23,106 GHz, TCF of $-34ppm/^{\circ}C$ were obtained for the specimens with 7 wt.% $CaV_2O_6$ sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 3 h.
