Abstract
(Ba0.67Sr0.33)1−3x/2YxTi1−y/2MnyO3 [BST(Mn + Y), x = 0.006, y = 0.005] ceramics were fabricated by using citrate–nitrate combustion derived powder. Microstructure and dielectric properties of the BST(Mn + Y) ceramic samples were investigated within the sintering temperature ranged from 1220 to 1300 °C. Sintering temperature has a great influence on the microstructure and electrical properties of the ceramic samples. The dielectric properties, ferroelectric properties, and tunability are enhanced by optimizing sintering temperature. The relatively high tunability of 40 % (1.5 kV/mm DC field, 10 kHz) was obtained, and relatively low dielectric loss, <0.0052 (at 10 kHz, 20 °C) was acquired for BST(Mn + Y) samples sintered at 1275 °C for 3 h. Both the low dielectric loss and enhanced tunable properties of BST(Mn + Y) are useful for tunable devices application.
