As the flight speed of aircraft continues to increase, high-temperature wave-transparent materials for radomes or antenna windows face great challenges. The shortage of new high-performance wave-transparent materials is limiting the improvement of aircraft performance. In this work, dielectric and mechanical properties of RE2SiO5 (RE = Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu) were investigated to explore their application as high-temperature wave-transparent materials. RE2SiO5 (RE = Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu) ceramics possess relatively low dielectric constant and it is insensitive to the RE species. For the dielectric loss, they gradually decrease as the radius of rare earth ions decreases. In addition, RE2SiO5 (RE = Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu) possesses good mechanical properties with high hardness and relatively low reduced modulus, and hardness is insensitive to the rare earth ion radii while the reduced modulus increases with the RE3+ ions radius decreases. They are larger than those of fused silica, the most used traditional high-temperature wave-transparent material. The results provide important material selection and optimization guidelines for RE2SiO5 as the candidate for next-generation high-temperature wave-transparent materials.
