Tailoring the microwave dielectric properties of BaRE2Ti4O12 and BaRE2Ti5O14 ceramics bycompositional variations

Ceramic dielectric resonators in the BaO-RE2O3-TiO2 (RE=rare earth) system have been prepared by the conventional solid state ceramic route. The dielectric properties have been tailored by substitution of different rare earth oxides and by bismuth oxide addition. The dielectric constants increased with Bi addition whereas the Q decreased. The temperature coeffecient of the resonant frequency improved with bismuth addition.

The Effect of Dopants on the Microwave Dielectric Properties of Ba (Mg 0.33 Ta 0.67) O3 Ceramics

The effect of dopants with different valencies and ionic radii on the densification, structural ordering, and microwave dielectric properties of Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3 (BMT) is investigated. It is found that dopants such as Sb2O5, MnO, ZrO2, WO3, and ZnO improve the microwave dielectric properties of BMT. Addition of trivalent dopants is detrimental to the cation ordering and dielectric properties of BMT. A correlation between the microwave dielectric properties of BMT and ionic radii of the dopant has been established. The variation of the dielectric properties of pure and doped BMT at cryogenic temperatures is also discussed.

A new method for load matching in multimode microwave feating applicators based on the use of dielectric layer superposition

Usage of a dielectric multilayer around a dielectric Sample is studied as a means for improving the efficiency in multimode microwave- heating cavities. The results show that by using additional dielectric constant layers the appearance of undesired reflections at the sample-air interface is avoided and higher power -absorption rates within the sample and high -efficiency designs are obtained

Microwave Absorbing Material Using Rubber & Carbon

Development of a new type of microwave absorbing material using rubber latex and carbon. for application in the interior lining of anechoic chambers, has been reported. Absorption coefficients of different combinations were estimated at X and S bands and the results were presented graphically. A combination of 50% rubber latex, 40% carbon and 10% graphite is found to form an ideal microwave absorbing material in the X and s bands
