Abstract
[ $(Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.3}Ca_{0.1})TiO_3$ ](BSCT) thick films doped with 0.1 mol% $MnCO_3\;and\;Yb_2O_3(0.1{\sim}0.7mol%)$ were fabricated by the screen printing method on the alumina substrates. And the structural and electrical properties as a function of $Yb_2O_3$ amount were investigated. The exothermic peak was observed at around $680^{\circ}C$ due to the formation of the poly crystalline perovskite phase. The lattice constants of the BSCT thick film doped with 0.7 mol% is 0.3994 nm. The specimen doped with 0.7 mol% $Yb_2O_3$ showed dense and uniform grains with diameters of about $4.2{\mu}m$. The average thickness of all BSCT thick films was approximately $70{\mu}m$. Relative dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the specimen doped with 0.7 mol% $Yb_2O_3$ were 2823 and 3.4%, respectively. The Curie temperature of the BSCT thick films doped with 0.1 mol% $Yb_2O_3$ was $46^{\circ}C$.
