The sintering characteristics and the effects of density on dielectric properties in 0.2Ba(Mg$_{1}$3(Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$-0.8Ba(Mg$_{1}$3//Ta$_{2}$3/)O$_3$ceramics were investigated. The samples were made by the powder mixing techniques with the two step calcining conditions. When the 1st and the 2nd calcining temperatures were 120$0^{\circ}C$ and the sintering temperature was 155$0^{\circ}C$the density of samples showed the highest value (7.45 g/cm$^3$, 98.5% of theoretical density) among them. The dielectric constant of samples was nearly independent of density but the tan $\delta$ and the temperature coefficient of dielectric constant decreased linearly with increasing of the density. The quality factor(Q$\times$f), the temperature coefficient of resonance frequency and the dielectric constant of Ba[Mg$_{1}$3(Nb$_{0.2}$/Ta$_{0.8}$)sub 2/3/]O$_3$ceramic were 79,548 GHz, +1.5 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ and 26 in the microwave range, respectively.ely.

Crystal structure and microwave dielectric properties of Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3) $O_3$ (BMN) ceramics were investigated. Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3) $O_3$ has the 1:2 ordered hexagonal structure. The 1:2 ordering and relative density of specimens increased with small Mg deficiency(x). The variation of Q${\times}$ $f_{0}$ with Mg deficiency is very similar to that of 1:2 ordering and relative density. The highest Q${\times}$ $f_{0}$ achieved in this investigation is about 96,000 for Ba(Mg1/3Nb2/3) $O_3$. The improvement of Q${\times}$ $f_{0}$ with Mg-deficiency is related to the increase of degree of ordering and relative density of the specimen.

The microwave dielectric properties and their related structural characteristics in solid solutions of (1-x) $Ba(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ -x $La(Mg_{2/3}Nb_{1/3})O_3$ (BLMN) have been investigated by measuring the dielectric constant${\varepsilon}r)$, Q value and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency$({\tau}f)$ and by observing the crystal structure using high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Microwave dielectric properties showed characteristic features for specific composition. Dielectric constant$({\varepsilon}r)$ showed maximum value at the composition which corresponds to the phase boundary between 1:2 ordered and 1:1 ordered structure. The increase in ${\varepsilon}_r$ may be caused by the rattling of ions by incorporating smaller ions and the disordered structure. The variation of temperature coefficient of resonant frequency${{\tau}_f)$ was investigated in terms of oxygen octahedra tilting.

We have studied the effect of sintering conditions on the long-range order parameter of the 1 : 2 cation ordering in Ba(Mg/sub 1/3/Nb/sub 2/3/)O₃microwave dielectrics prepared through a columbite precursor method. It is found that the order parameter depends strongly on the sintering conditions. As the heat-treatment time increases at 1350℃, the long-range order parameter decreases. When sintered at 1500℃ for 4 hours, BMN shows a high long-range order parameter of 0.94.

$0.7Ba(Mg{\frac}_{1}{3}Ta{\frac}_{1}{3})O_3-0.3Ba({\frac}_{1}{3}Nb{\frac}_{1}{3})O_3ceramics$ were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The ceramics were sintered at the temperature of $1500{\sim}1575[^{\circ}C]$ for 5 hours in air. The microwave dielectric properties of the specimens were investigated with sintering temperature. The 0.7BMT-0.3BCN ceramics showed typical XRD patterns of the complex perovskite structure. Dielectric constant and quality factor were increased with increasing the sintering temperature. In the case of the specimens sintered at $1575[^{\circ}C]$ for 5 hours, dielectric constant, quality factor and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were good values of 28,23545 at 10[㎓] and -1.2 $[ppm/^{\circ}C]$, respectively.

The structural changes and the microwave dielectric properties of $Ba_{1-x}$/A$_{x}$/(Mg$_{1}$3//Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$(A=Sr, Ca=x0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) were investigated. The densities of samples are gradually decreased with increasing x(BMN=6.1, SMN=5.22 and CMN=4.26 g/m$^3$)The crystal structure of BMN was untilting of oxygen octahedral. The structural changes of BSMN showed the antiphase tilting at x>0.4, and those of BCMN showed the antiphase tilting at 0.20.8. The variation of dielectric constant with Sr was small(BMN=32, SMN=30) However the variation with Ca was large the highest value was 42 at Ca=0.2(CMN=25) The maximum quality factor was 68,000 GHz at Sr=0.2 and the minimum quality factor was 3,000 GHz at Ca=0.2 (BMN=35,000, SMN=20,000 and CMN=23,000 GHz) The temperature coefficients of resonant frequency of BSMN were about 2 times larger than those of BCMN in all composition.ion.

We have studied the effect of sintering temperature and time on the cation ordering and second phase formation in Ba(Mg/sub 1/3/Nb/sub 2/3/)O₃(BMN) microwave ceramics by using transmission electron microscopy. The relationship between the structural-chemical behavior arid microwave dielectric properties has also been investigated. It is revealed that according to the sintering conditions the BMN ceramics show very diverse local ordering behavior, such as the development of domain twinning and "core-shell"-structured grains and the formation of local disordered domains, though having 1 : 2 cation ordering structure basically. The disordered structure is found in Mg-excess region. Such local chemical variation seems to be caused by the formation of BaNb₂O/sub 6/-like second phase in its neigh-boring grain boundary. The microwave dielectric quality factor of the ceramics decreases greatly with the increase of the structural-chemical inhomogeneity and diversity.

Dielectric properties and the stabilization of perovskite phase for the (1-y)Pb(Mg(1-x)/3Znx/3Znx/3Nb2/3)O3-yBaTiO3 ((1-y)PM1-xZxN-yBT) ceramics have been investigated as a function of amount of x and y. In the (1-y)PM0.6Z0.4N-yBT ceramics, the amount of pyrochlore phae was decreased by the addition of 2 mol% BT and the dielectric constant was increased. However, the dielectric constant decreased with further addition of BT even though pyrochlore phase was decreased. Dielectric prooperties in (1-y)PM0.6Z0.4N-yBT ceracmis were affected by the character of the BT rather than the amount of pyrochlore phase. The phase transitions were broadened and phase transition temperatures were lowered by the increase of BT contents.

The microwave dielectric properties of (1-x)Ba(Mg$_{1}$3/Ta$_{2}$3/)O$_3$-xBa(Co$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3)O$_3$(x=0.25~0.5) ceramics depending on the Ba(Co$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$[BCN] contents and the possibility of application as a microwave dielectric resonator were investigated. The specimens were prepared by he conventional mixed oxide method using there sintering temperature of 1575$^{\circ}C$. It was found that Ba(Mg$_{1}$3/Ta$_{2}$3/)O$_3$[BMT] and BCN formed a solid solution with complex perovskite structure. As the mole fraction of BCN increased, dielectric constant increased while temperature coefficient of resonant frequency decreased. The highest value of quality factor, Qxf$_{0}$=138,205GHz, obtained in the sample of 0.9BMT-0.1BCN ceramics. In the range of x$\geq$0.4, the dielectric constant was about 30. The 0.55BMT-0.45BCN ceramics showed excellent microwave dielectric properties with $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=30.84, Qxf$_{0}$=75,325GHz and $\tau$$_{f}$=2.9015ppm/$^{\circ}C$.EX>.EX>.
