The structural and microwave dielectric properties of $0.7Mg_4Ta_2O_9-0.3SrTiO_3$ ceramics with sintering temperature were investigated. All the sample of the $0.7Mg_4Ta_2O_9-0.3SrTiO_3$ ceramics were prepared by conventional miked oxide method and the sintering temperature was $1425\~1500^{\circ}C$. The hexagonal phase of $Mg_4Ta_2O_9$ and the cubic phase of $SrTiO_3$ were coexisted. The porosity of $0.7Mg_4Ta_2O_9-0.3SrTiO_3$ ceramics were reduced with increasing sintering temperature. In the case of $0.7Mg_4Ta_2O_9-0.3SrTiO_3$ ceramics sintered at $1475^{\circ}C$, dielectric constant, quality factor and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 14.51, 82,596 GHz and $-3.14\;ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively.

0.15(B $a_{0.95}$ S $r_{0.05}$)O-0.15S $m_{2}$ $O_{3}$-0.7Ti $O_{2}$ ceramics were fabricated by the mixed-oxide method. Microwave dielectric properties were investigated with sintering conditions. Increasing the sintering temperature from 1300 to 1375[.deg. C], the sintered density was increased from 5.44 to 5.63[g/c $m^{3$]. Increasing the sintering temperature, dielectric constant and quality factor were increased and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency was independent of sintering temperature. In the specimen sintered at 1375[.deg. C], dielectric constant, quality factor and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 80.79, 2784(at 3[GHz]), +11.07[ppm/.deg. C], respectively..

We investigated the effects of calcination temperature and sintering additives on the sintering behaviors and microwave dielectric properties of $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$. Highly densified samples were obtained at the sintering temperatures below $1000^{\circ}C$ with additions of 0.45 wt.% $Bi_2O_3$ and 0.55 wt.% $V_2O_5$. From the examination of the existing phases and microstructures before and after sintering of $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$ system calcined at the various temperatures ranging from $800^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$, it was found that high $Q{\times}f_o$ values were obtained when unreacted or second phases in calcined body were reduced. When calcined at $1000^{\circ}C$ and sintered at $900^{\circ}C$, it consists of hexagonal as a main phase with uniform microstructure and exhibits $Q{\times}f_o$ value of 42,000 GHz and dielectric constant of 22.

In order to improve the microwave dielectric properties of ZnO+$TiO_2$ ceramic systems, we studied the relations among microstructures, phases, and microwave dielectric properties at various mole ratio and sintering temperatures. The optimum composition was found to be 0.2ZnO+0.8$TiO_2$ when sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$, at which we could obtain following results: $Q{\times}f_o$ = 22,500 GHz, ${\varepsilon}_r$ = 73, and $\tau_f=+210ppm/^{\circ}C$.

We have studied the effect of sintering temperature and time on the cation ordering and second phase formation in Ba(Mg/sub 1/3/Nb/sub 2/3/)O₃(BMN) microwave ceramics by using transmission electron microscopy. The relationship between the structural-chemical behavior arid microwave dielectric properties has also been investigated. It is revealed that according to the sintering conditions the BMN ceramics show very diverse local ordering behavior, such as the development of domain twinning and "core-shell"-structured grains and the formation of local disordered domains, though having 1 : 2 cation ordering structure basically. The disordered structure is found in Mg-excess region. Such local chemical variation seems to be caused by the formation of BaNb₂O/sub 6/-like second phase in its neigh-boring grain boundary. The microwave dielectric quality factor of the ceramics decreases greatly with the increase of the structural-chemical inhomogeneity and diversity.

The microwave dielectric properties of the $Ba_{5}Ta_{4}O_{15}$ ceramics with sintering temperature were investigated. All sample of the $Ba_{5}Ta_{4}O_{15}$ ceramics prepared by conventional mixed oxide method and sintered at $1450^{\circ}C{\sim}1575^{\circ}C$.

In this study, development of a new LTCC material using non-glassy system was attempted with repsect to reducing the fabrication process steps and cost down. Lowering the sintering temperature can be achieved by liquid phase sintering. However, presence of liquid phases usually decrease dielectric properties, especially the quality factor. Therefore, the starting material must have quality factor as high as possible in microwave frequency range. And also, the material should have a low dielectric constant for enhancing the signal propagation speed. Regarding these factors, dielectric constants of various materials were estimated by the Clausius-Mosotti equation. Among them, $ZnWO_4$ was turned out the suitable LTCC material. $ZnWO_4$ can be sintered up to 98% of full density at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours. It's measured dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 15.5, 74380GHz, and $-70ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively. In order to modify the dielectric properties and densification temperature, $B_{2}O_{3}$ and $V_{2}O_{5}$ were added to $ZnWO_4$. 40 mol% $B_{2}O_{3}$ addition reduced the dielectric constant from 15.5 to 12. And the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency was improved from -70 to $-7.6ppm/^{\circ}C$. However, sintering temperature did not change due to either lack of liquid phase or high viscosity of liquid phase. Incorporation of small amount of $V_{2}O_{5}$ in $ZnWO_{4}-B_{2}O_{3}$ system enhanced liquid phase sintering. 0.1 wt% $V_{2}O_{5}$ addition to the $0.6ZnWO_{4}-0.4B_{2}O_{3}$ system, reduced the sintering temperature down to $950^{\circ}C$. Dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 9.5, 16737GHz, and $-21.6ppm/^{\circ}C$, respectively.
