Description

Rare earth oxide doped modified zinc silicate ceramic for microwave device and preparation method thereof Technical Field The invention belongs to the technical field of wireless communication and electronic ceramic materials, and particularly relates to rare earth oxide doped modified zinc silicate ceramic for a microwave device and a preparation method thereof. Background The discovery and development of electromagnetic waves greatly promote the progress of human society, and the electromagnetic waves in the microwave frequency range are more closely related to people and things. The development of mobile communication technology is rapid, new generation of mobile communication technology can be generated every ten years, the frequency of electromagnetic wave used by each generation of mobile communication technology reaches a new height, and electromagnetic wave with high frequency can carry a large amount of information, but has the defects of poor barrier bypassing capability, easy attenuation and the like, and can easily cause frame loss of signals in the transmission process. In order to meet the development requirements of 5G/6G communication technology, dielectric ceramics with low dielectric constant, high quality factor and near zero resonance frequency temperature have been attracting attention in recent years as key materials for components such as dielectric resonators, dielectric filters, antennas, substrates and the like. The low dielectric constant improves the transmission efficiency of the electric signal, and the high quality factor ensures the frequency selectivity in the signal transmission process. The Zn 2-xSiO4-x dielectric material has excellent dielectric property, low dielectric constant epsilon r (6.5), high quality factor Q multiplied by f (198400 GHz) and relatively negative resonant frequency temperature coefficient tau f (-41.6 ppm/°C). Although the dielectric constant and the quality factor of the material are excellent, the adopted preparation method is complex, when the material is prepared by adopting a conventional solid phase reaction method, the volatilization of ZnO exists at high temperature, a second phase of ZnO can be generated due to a narrow sintering interval, and the problems of more pores of a sintered sample and the like increase the dielectric loss, so that the quality factor is seriously reduced.
