Cerium oxide (CeO2) has been prepared as a ceramic dielectric resonator by a conventional solid-state ceramic route. The sintered CeO2 has a high dielectric quality factor (Q×f), Q value of 10 000 at 6 GHz with a relative permittivity (ε′) of 23, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τf of -53 ppm/°C. The Q value increases to 20 000 at 6 GHz when the CeO2 is doped with 1 mol% CaCO3. Higher levels of CaCO3 doping lowers the Q and ε′ values and simultaneously decreases τf. TiO2 doping decreases τf and slightly increases ε′, but deceases the Q value. The Q value of pure CeO2 increases to 105 000 at a frequency of 5.58 GHz when it is cooled to 30 K, whereas Q ≈ 85 000 at 5.48 GHz for 1-mol%-CaCO3-doped CeO2 at 30 K.

Abstract

Cerium oxide (CeO2) has been prepared as a ceramic dielectric resonator by a conventional solid-state ceramic route. The sintered CeO2 has a high dielectric quality factor (Q×f), Q value of 10 000 at 6 GHz with a relative permittivity (ε′) of 23, and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τf of -53 ppm/°C. The Q value increases to 20 000 at 6 GHz when the CeO2 is doped with 1 mol% CaCO3. Higher levels of CaCO3 doping lowers the Q and ε′ values and simultaneously decreases τf. TiO2 doping decreases τf and slightly increases ε′, but deceases the Q value. The Q value of pure CeO2 increases to 105 000 at a frequency of 5.58 GHz when it is cooled to 30 K, whereas Q ≈ 85 000 at 5.48 GHz for 1-mol%-CaCO3-doped CeO2 at 30 K.
