摘要

With the rapid development of 5G/6G mobile communication technology, microwave dielectric materials are facing increasingly strict performance requirements. As core fundamental materials for modern communication systems, performance optimization of microwave dielectric ceramics has become a research hotspot. Addressing the limitations of single-phase ceramic materials, dense microwave dielectric ceramics of (Nd1-xLax)2[Zr0.89(Bi0.5Ta0.5)0.11]3(MoO4)9 (x = 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07) were prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction method. The experimental process involved 550 °C pre-sintering followed by gradient sintering at 600–725 °C (4 h holding time). X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that all samples exhibited trigonal crystal structure with \(R\overline{3} c\) R 3 ¯ c space group. The lattice parameters were obtained by Rietveld refinement method. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterization indicates that compactness has a significant impact on the dielectric constant (εr) and the quality factor (Q × f). Raman spectroscopy analysis indicated strong associations of εr and Q × f values with characteristic peak shifts and full width at half maximum (FWHM), respectively. When sintered at 675 °C, the NLZBTM (x = 0.03) ceramics exhibited exceptional comprehensive performance: εr = 11.24 ± 0.02, Q × f = 116,914 ± 5738 GHz, and τf = − 37 ± 1.5 ppm/℃. The bond property analysis based on the P–V–L theory shows that the ionicity of the Nd/La–O bond makes the greatest contribution to εᵣ, while the covalency of the Mo–O bond significantly affects the Q × f value and τf parameter. It is noteworthy that this material achieves low-temperature sintering at 675 °C while maintaining excellent microwave dielectric properties, demonstrating significant potential as a candidate material for low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC).
