“…Glass-ceramics with ZnO are promising candidates in phosphors [4,5], industrial glazes [6]. Pure and doped Zn x SiO 4-x ceramics exhibit a low electric permittivity and a high Q × f value (Q, dielectric loss; f, resonant frequency), which fit well with the requirements of low temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) [7,8] and dielectric devices [9,10]. Accurate phase diagram and thermodynamic information of the SiO 2 -ZnO system are important factors in enhancing the performance of those applications.…”
