Abstract
Li(Mg1–xCox)PO4 (x=0–0.09) ceramics were prepared by the conventional solid-state ceramic method. The formation of single-phase Li(Mg1–xCox)PO4 solid solutions is confirmed by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. Co2+ substitution for Mg2+ can lower the sintering temperature and enhance the Qf value of LiMgPO4 ceramics. The LiMg0.95Co0.05PO4 ceramic sintered at 875°C reaches a maximum relative density of 97.4% and shows the microwave dielectric properties of εr=6.97, Qf=111,200GHz, and τf=–53.8ppm/°C. The negative τf value can be tuned nearly to zero by adding TiO2. The LiMg0.95Co0.05PO4–TiO2 composite ceramic with 16.1wt% TiO2 sintered at 875°C for 2h shows a near-zero τf value of +0.8ppm/°C, together with an εr value of 9.97 and a Qf value of 58,200GHz. The composite ceramic does not react with the commonly used electrode material silver and is a promising candidate for low-temperature cofired ceramic applications.
