Abstract
(1 − x)BaTiO3–xBi(Cu0.75W0.25)O3 [(1 − x)BT–xBCW, 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.04] perovskite solid solutions ceramics of an X8R-type multilayer ceramic capacitor with a low sintering temperature (900°C) were synthesized by a conventional solid state reaction technique. Raman spectra and x-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated that a systematically structural evolution from a tetragonal phase to a pseudo-cubic phase appeared near 0.03 < x < 0.04. X-ray photoelectron analysis confirmed the existence of Cu+/Cu2+ mixed-valent structure in 0.96BT–0.04BCW ceramics. 0.96BT–0.04BCW ceramics sintered at 900°C showed excellent temperature stability of permittivity (Δε/ε 25°C ≤ ±15%) and retained good dielectric properties (relative permittivity ∼1450 and dielectric loss ≤2%) over a wide temperature range from 25°C to 150°C at 1 MHz. Especially, 0.96BT–0.04BCW dielectrics have good compatibility with silver powders. Dielectric properties and electrode compatibility suggest that the developed materials can be used in low temperature co-fired multilayer capacitor applications.
