Abstract
(100-x) wt.% BaTi0.85Sn0.15O3–x wt.% MgO (BTS/MgO) composite ceramics were prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) technology. Phase constitution, microstructure, dielectric and electrical energy storage properties of BTS/MgO composite ceramics were investigated. The samples prepared by SPS had smaller grain size and presented layer-plate substructure. Dielectric permittivity and dielectric loss of BTS/MgO composite ceramics decreased significantly with the content of MgO increasing, and dielectric tunability maintained a relatively high value (>45%). Meanwhile, the dielectric breakdown strength was improved when addition of MgO in BTS matrix, which resulted in a significant improvement of energy storage density. The high dielectric breakdown strength of 190kV/cm, energy storage density of 0.5107J/cm3 and energy storage efficiency of 92.11% were obtained in 90wt.% BaTi0.85Sn0.15O3–10wt.% MgO composite ceramics. Therefore, BTS/MgO composites with good tunable dielectric properties and electrical energy storage properties could be exploited for energy storage and phase shifter device applications.
