Ba4Al2Ti10O27 glass-ceramics as dielectric materials for antenna elements in wireless communications — •Martun Hovhannisyan1, Hubertus Brauna1, Yuliang Zheng2, Arshad Mehmood2, Martin Letz1, and Rolf Jakoby21Material & Technology Development, SCHOTT AG, Hattenbergstrasse 10, Mainz, 55122, Germany — 2Technical University of Darmstadt, Darmstadt, D-64283 Darmstadt, Germany

Dielectric glass-ceramics with Ba4Al2Ti10O27 as the main crystalline phase are obtained by controlled heat-treatment of a non-porous bulk-glass phase. Such a non-porous material has advantages over ceramics with residual porosity wherever metallization steps are applied to the material. Depending on the details of heat-treatment profile the Ba4Al2Ti10O27 is formed as a main phase with secondary phases BaTi4O9 or BaAl2Si2O8. Microstructural observation using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shows nanometer-sized crystals (40nm) grown in a true glass phase. The microwave dielectric characterization using Hakki-Coleman setup shows a Qf from 2000 GHz to 10.000 GHz, dielectric constant from 19 to 33 and |tf| of <20 ppm/K. Balancing between different crystalline phases allows to adjust |tf| to zero. To our knowledge the present work is the first one emphasizing the attractiveness of the microwave dielectric properties of the phase Ba4Ti10Al2O27. Such glass-ceramics are well suited for antenna and filter applications in microwave electronics.
