The effect of Mn doping on the dielectric properties of Ba2Ti9O20 ceramics has been investigated at microwave frequency. The dielectric constant and the temperature coefficient are not sensitive to the addition of Mn, while the unloaded Q depends strongly upon it as well as on heat treatment at high temperature. A minute addition of Mn leads to an increase in the Q value. A high value of Q of more than 5200 was obtained at 9 GHz with the addition of 0.5∼1.0 mol% Mn.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
