Abstract
ABSTRACTFerroelectrics are presently of interest for phase shifters, filters, and true time delay devices. Voltage tunable paraelectrics have the potential to lower device cost and reduce power consumption compared with presently available devices. In order to improve device performance to acceptable levels, materials must have high tunability, low dielectric constant, low loss tangent, and low leakage current. Using existing predictive techniques, compositions of Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3-based ferroelectrics with charge-compensated substitutions for Ti4+ were synthesized. Results of capacitance measurements are used to obtain dielectric constant and tunability in the paraelectric (T > TC) regime. The relevance to device requirements is discussed. Results for substituted samples are compared to those for (unsubstituted) Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3. Discussion of the impact of the results on predictive techniques for tunability is addressed.
