Abstract

Dielectric properties of (Ba1-x,Srx)TiO3 of x=0.35-0.55 were studied in the frequency range 1-3 GHz. Samples sintered at 1350°C for 3 hours in oxygen exhibited permittivity values > 400 along with ∼3% loss at >1 GHz. Air sintered samples had higher loss (∼5%) and lower permittivity. This peculiar behavior of paraelectric BST is discussed within the framework of the model proposed by Vendik et al. [1]. Extended sintering times (∼6 hours) were found to promote lower losses (∼0.4%) and it can be attributed to higher chemical homogeneity and larger grain size.
