Summary: A ceramic with a large dielectric constant for X8R MLCC was fabricated by sintering 0.96BT-0.04BMT + y wt.% Nb2O5 ceramics at 1275℃, forming a core-shell structure. The addition of Nb2O5 resulted in a broad shell-region phase-transition peak and a decreased Er of the core-region phase-transition peak, leading to a large Er of 2285 and good temperature stability for the sample with y = 1.25. By using 0.1 wt% BaO-CaO-SiO2 to reduce the sintering temperature, a 9-layered MLCC produced with BCS-doped 0.96BT-0.04BMT + 1.25 wt% Nb2O5 ceramic at 1200℃ showed a large capacitance of 67 nF and complied with EIA-X8R regulations.

Summary: The study focused on optimizing alloy composition to improve high-temperature dielectric properties, and investigated the effects of excess bismuth and manganese doping on performance. The results showed that the addition of small amounts of manganese extended the low-loss temperature range, while excess bismuth limited the application temperature range.

Summary: This research investigates the effect of N-2 and air atmospheres on the morphological and dielectric properties of modified BTO nanoparticles. It was found that the modified BTO had high dielectric constants in both atmospheres. Morphological analysis showed a connection between particle size, pore size distribution, and porosity. Image analysis data indicated that yttrium-based organometallic salt reduced oxygen vacancy generation in the N-2 atmosphere. DC bias sensitivity measurements showed that samples with higher dielectric constants were more sensitive to voltage change.

Summary: In this study, the wide-temperature stability of BaTiO3-based ceramics is achieved by B site co-doping synergistic engineering. Element Ca is added to the ceramic to reduce the Curie temperature by optimizing the crystal structure, and subsequently, Nb is introduced to further suppress and broaden the dielectric peak by forming the core-shell structure. The doped ceramics exhibit a temperature coefficient of capacitance at 25 degrees C (TCC25 degrees C) being less than +/- 15% in the wide temperature range of -55 degrees C-180 degrees C, and an excellent energy storage density of 1.13 J cm(-3). This study provides a theoretical foundation for the design and preparation of high-performance dielectric materials.

Summary: The tetragonality and phase-transition temperature of BaTiO3 ceramics doped with rare-earth Sm decreased with increasing doping content. Colossal dielectric constant and dielectric relaxations were observed, attributed to the inhomogeneous structure and interface-polarization effect. The multi-relaxation phenomenon depended on doping content and reflected the complex inhomogeneity of the samples, with relaxation processes closely related to the electrical resistances of the grain and activation energies dependent on the crystal structures.

Summary: This study confirmed that Ca ions can substitute the Ti site in BaTi1-xCaxO3-x ceramics, greatly improving the low-temperature stability of dielectric constant. By introducing Bi3+ and Zn2+, the dielectric-temperature stability can be further enhanced. The 0.85BTC4-0.15BZT ceramics showed excellent temperature coefficient of capacitance and dielectric properties, meeting higher standards in the current capacitor industry.

Summary: TiO2 addition in BSNTA ceramics improves the dielectric constant and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency. Sintering in oxygen enhances the density, dielectric constant, and Q x f value due to the reduction in defect concentration. The research provides new insight into the impact of sintering atmosphere on the Q x f value of titanate ceramics.

Summary: In this study, lead-free ceramics (1-x)BaTiO3-xBi(Mg3/4W1/4)O-3 [(1-x)BT-xBMW] were prepared via solid-state reaction method. X-ray patterns showed that the ceramics had perovskite structure without a second phase, and the tetragonal phase of BT transformed into a pseudo-cubic phase with the introduction of BMW. The average grain size of the ceramics decreased from 3.75 μm to 2.54 μm with the increase of BMW content, but increased to 2.83 μm at x = 20. Modification with appropriate amount of BMW improved the relaxation behavior and energy-storage performance of BT ceramics.

Summary: Hydroxyapatite (HA) was introduced into tetragonal BaTiO3 by rotary evaporation, and the optimal molar ratio of BaTiO3/HA in the composite was 3:1. Different dispersants were investigated for their effects on the product phase, morphology and properties. The BaTiO3/HA porous microspheres exhibited good ability to induce bone-like apatite formation in simulated body fluid, and showed higher d33 value than human bone.
