Summary: Extensive research has been conducted on microwave dielectric materials for their application in 5G and 6G communication technologies. This study broadened the sintering temperature range of MT-C ceramics using a composite of CeO2 and Mg2TiO4 ceramics, and stabilized their microwave dielectric performance. The prepared MT-C ceramics exhibited low loss and uniform density, making them suitable for industrial applications in the field of communication.

Summary: The dielectric properties of microwave ceramics manufactured via additive manufacturing (AM) are lower than those of dry-pressed ones due to the special laminated manufacturing method. A study using the vat photopolymerization technique found that increasing the layer thickness of Mg2TiO4 ceramics from 20 to 50 mu m resulted in a decrease in the number of pore defects along the laminated interface. This led to a denser microstructure and fully grown grains, contributing to an increase in the quality factor values.

Summary: Novel temperature-stable Mg2TiO4-based ceramics with improved sintering ability and temperature stability were successfully fabricated using a solid-state reaction method. The addition of Ba3(VO4)2 and LiF enabled the formation of well-dense Mg2TiO4-Ba3(VO4)2 composite ceramics at 900 degrees C through LiF liquid-phase sintering. The resulting ceramics exhibited balanced microwave dielectric properties and good chemical compatibility with Ag electrodes, making them suitable as substrate materials for LTCC applications.

Summary: Ca1-xBaxMgSi2O6 ceramics were prepared through solid-state reaction sintering, and the effects of substituting Ba2+ for Ca2+, relative density, phase composition, crystal morphology, and microwave dielectric properties were studied. The results showed that a single phase was formed when x ≤ 0.2, while a second phase appeared at x = 0.4. The increase in Ba2+ substitution affected the microwave dielectric properties, with Qxf value first increasing and then decreasing, and epsilon(r) value continuously increasing. The z(f) value also slightly improved.

Summary: This study reports on the improvement of microwave dielectric properties and sintering characteristics of Zn1_xBixVxW1_xO4(x = 0-0.15)-based ceramics. Doping in an appropriate amount reduces the sintering temperature and enhances the microstructure densification and Qxf value. Structural parameters related to dielectric properties were systematically investigated, and the chemical bond characteristics were considered.

Summary: Novel BaCa2M3O9 (M = Si, Ge) microwave dielectric ceramics were prepared via solid-state reaction and sintering, exhibiting triclinic structure and good microwave dielectric properties. Single-phase BaCa2Ge3O9 ceramic was synthesized for the first time and confirmed through Rietveld refinement and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy/selected area electron diffraction. The BaCa2M3O9 (M = Si, Ge) ceramics showed their microwave dielectric properties were influenced by factors such as relative density, ionic polarizability, relative covalence, and bond energy of M-O bond.
