Abstract
Yttrium iron garnet and calcium titanate (Y3Fe5O12-CaTiO3, YIG-CTO) ceramic composite were obtained according to the well-established solid-state route. This system was studied by complex impedance spectroscopy as a function of temperature. All samples showed a thermo-activated relaxation with energy activation between 1.10 and 1.70 eV. The CaTi0.6Fe0.4O2.8 phase is formed during sintering process, which influences in the electrical behavior of the samples. Nyquist diagrams were adjusted by two equivalent circuits in series to represent electric response. The YIG-CTO system was also used to design a dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) for microwave applications. The results indicate that DRA YIG-CTO-based presented an operation frequency range around 1–7 GHz, and reflection coefficient below −38 dB. From obtained results, the YIG-CTO composite is a great candidate for usage in electronic devices, operating in the C-band, such as WiFi and ISM band applications.
