Dielectric properties at microwave frequency region of the five-layered compound $Ba_5Nb_4O_{15}$ prepared by the conventional solid state reaction method were investigated. $Ba_5Nb_4O_{15}$ has excellent microwave dielectric characteristics; ${\varepsilon}_r$=38, Q=7500 at 10 GHz, and ${\tau}_l$=+50 ppm/K. Since this compound has a high dielectric constant, high Q and sufficiently stable characteristics, it is useful for the applications at microwave frequencies.

The $(1-x)Mg_4Ta_2O_9-xwt%TiO_2\;(x=5\sim20)$ microwave dielectric ceramics were prepared by solid-state reaction method and sintered at $1450^{\circ}C$. According to the X-ray diffraction data, the $Mg_4Ta_2O_9-xwt%TiO_2$ ceramics had main phase of $Mg_4Ta_2O_9$ and $MgTi_2O_5$ peaks were added by increasing of $TiO_2$ addition. Microwave dielectric properties of the $Mg_4Ta_2O_9-xwt%TiO_2$ ceramics were influenced by $MgTi_2O_5$ phase and properties of $TiO_2$. There was a little decrement of the quality factor from 116,800GHz of pure $Mg_4Ta_2O_9$ to 100,100GHz of 15wt% $TiO_2$ added one. But there was excellent improvement in temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency (TCRF) by addition of 15wt% $TiO_2$. The dielectric constant quality factor and TCRF of the $Mg_4Ta_2O_9-xwt%TiO_2$ ceramics sintered at $1450^{\circ}C$ were $13.08\sim16.41,\;45,000\sim165,410GHz,\;-24.82\sim+3.88ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively, depending on the value of x. Simulated dielectric resonator (DR) with $Mg_4Ta_2O_9-15wt%TiO_2$ ceramics had the operating frequency of 11.97GHz and $S_{2,1}$ of -35.034dB.

The microwave dielectric properties and the structure of $Sb_2O_5$ modified $BiNb_xSb_{1-x}O_4$ ceramics were investigated. The structure of these ceramics were orthohombic phase at all sintering temperatures and there were not the second phase. These ceramics added sintering additive such as CuO and $V_2O_5$ were sinterable at a low temperature$(880^{\circ}C{\sim}960^{\circ}C)$ by liquid phase. Dielectric properties of $BiNb_xSb_{1-x}O_4$ ceramics were also improved than these of $BiNbO_4$ ceramics. The content of modified atom controlled the microstructure, dielectric constant and quality factor. As a result, We could obtain following result; ${\varepsilon}r$=42~44, $Q{\cdot}f_0$=20,000~42,000GHz, $\tau_f=-7{\sim}-28ppm/^{\circ}C$.

Effects of ceramics on the microwave dielectric properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composites filled with $MgTiO_3$ (MTi) and/or $MgTa_2O_6$ (MTa) were investigated. The dielectric constant ($K$), quality factor ($Qf$), and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency ($TCF$) of the composites were dependent on the type and volume fraction ($V_f$) of the ceramics. For the composites mixed with MTa and MTi, the $K$ and $TCF$ values decreased with increasing MTi content. The $Qf$ values of the composites were affected by relative density. The measured $K$ values of the composites were compared with those predicted by several theoretical models. Good microwave dielectric properties with values of $K$=3.6, $Qf$ = 7,788 GHz, and $TCF$ = -0.19 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ were obtained for the composites with 0.1 $V_f$ ceramics (mixed 0.025MTa and 0.075MTi).

The microwave dielectric properties and the microstructures of $Tm_2O_3$-modified $BiNbO_4$ ceramics were investigated. $Bi_{(1-x)}Tm_xNbO_4$ ceramics combined with orthorhombic and triclinic phases were identified at sintering temperatures of $920{\sim}960^{\circ}C$. The apparent density decreased slightly with the increasing Tm content. Regardless of the Tm content the dielectric constant $(\varepsilon_r)$ of all compositions except x=0.1 in $Bi_{(1-x)}Tm_xNbO_4$ ceramics saturated at the range of 42~44. The $Q{\times}f_0$ values of 6,000-12,000(GHz) were obtained for all compositions when the sintering temperatures were in the range of $920{\sim}960^{\circ}C$. The temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency$(\tau_f)$ can be also adjusted with increasing the amount of the doped Tm from a positive value of $+15ppm/^{\circ}C$ to a negative value of $-20ppm/^{\circ}C$. The $Bi_{(1-x)}Tm_xNbO_4$ ceramics can be possibly applied to multilayer microwave devices with low processing temperatures.

Ceramics based on CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃ solid solutions were synthesized in order to study their dielectric microwave properties. Microstructural analysis was performed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using different analytical methods such as energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS). It was observed that the heating conditions during sintering and cooling strongly affect the microstructural development of CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃-based ceramics. Various types and concentrations of structural defects were identified, for example, dislocations, twins and/or antiphase boundaries. all such defects resulted in a degradation of the dielectric microwave properties, in particular the quality factor Q. Dielectric properties of CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃-based ceramics can be improved by an appropriate thermal treatment of ceramics which results in a decrease in the concentrations of the identified microstructural defects.

In this study,. the microwave dielectric properties of the $0.6TiTe_3O_8-0.4CaWO_4$ ceramics with sintering temperature were investigated for LTCC application. According to the X-ray diffraction patterns, the $0.6TiTe_3O_8-0.4CaWO_4$ ceramics had columbite structure of the $TiTe_3O_8$ phase and scheelite structure of the $CaWO_4$ phase. Increasing the sintering temperature, the bulk density, the dielectric constant and the quality factor of the $0.6TiTe_3O_8-0.4CaWO_4$ ceramics were increased. In the case of the $0.6TiTe_3O_8-0.4CaWO_4$ ceramics sintered at $810^{\circ}C$, the bulk density, the dielectric constant and the quality factor were 5.72$g/cm^2$, 33.6, 22,013GHz respectively.

The microwave dielectric properties of (1-x)Ba(Mg$_{1}$3/Ta$_{2}$3/)O$_3$-xBa(Co$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3)O$_3$(x=0.25~0.5) ceramics depending on the Ba(Co$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$[BCN] contents and the possibility of application as a microwave dielectric resonator were investigated. The specimens were prepared by he conventional mixed oxide method using there sintering temperature of 1575$^{\circ}C$. It was found that Ba(Mg$_{1}$3/Ta$_{2}$3/)O$_3$[BMT] and BCN formed a solid solution with complex perovskite structure. As the mole fraction of BCN increased, dielectric constant increased while temperature coefficient of resonant frequency decreased. The highest value of quality factor, Qxf$_{0}$=138,205GHz, obtained in the sample of 0.9BMT-0.1BCN ceramics. In the range of x$\geq$0.4, the dielectric constant was about 30. The 0.55BMT-0.45BCN ceramics showed excellent microwave dielectric properties with $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=30.84, Qxf$_{0}$=75,325GHz and $\tau$$_{f}$=2.9015ppm/$^{\circ}C$.EX>.EX>.

In this study, the $(1-\chi)Ba(Mg_{\fraction one-third}Ta_{\fraction two-thirds}O_3-\chiBa(Co_{\fraction one-third}\Nb_{\fraction two-thirds})O_3$ ceramics($\chi$=0.3,0.4,0.5,0.6) were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The ceramics were sintered at the temperature of $1500~1575^{\circ}C$ for5 hours in air. The BMT-BCN ceramics have a complex perovskite structure, and have peaks of (101), (102), (201), (202) and (212). Increasing the sintering temperature, dielectric constant was increased. Temperature coefficients of resonant frequency of the specimens were decreasing with increasing BCN content. In the case of the 0.7BMT-0.3BCN ceramics sintered at $1575^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours, dielectric constant, quality factor and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency for microwave dielectrics application were a good value of 28, 235500 at ㎓ and -$1.2 ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively.
