Abstract

The relationship between the structure and microwave dielectric properties of spinel-structured Li2ZnTi3O8 ceramic has been studied by structure refinement and Raman spectroscopy analysis. The vibration modes of Li2ZnTi3O8 were classified by group-theoretical analysis, and the observed Raman spectra of Li2ZnTi3O8 ceramic assigned. The correlations between bond strengths, packing fraction, the stretch mode of the oxygen octahedron (A 1g(1) mode), and the microwave dielectric properties are discussed. With increase of the A 1g(1) Raman shift, the oxygen octahedron became rigid, thereby decreasing the dielectric constant (e r). With increasing packing fraction and decreasing full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of A 1g(1) mode, the lattice anharmonic vibration decreased, the damping behavior of A 1g(1) stretch vibration became weaker, and the intrinsic quality factor (Q × f) accordingly increased. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τ f ) improved with the increase of bond strength, irrespective of oxygen octahedron distortion.
