Abstract

With the recent advances in telecommunications industry in antenna area it’s increasingly required the development of ceramic materials which have high values of permittivity dielectric, low dielectric loss and a good thermal stability. Dielectric ceramics of CaCu3Ti4O12 are candidates as high values of permittivity dielectric materials and have been studied extensively. Nowadays ceramics offer materials several significant advantages in relation to others since present low production cost for electronic devices that operate of radio and microwave frequency, as well as being low weight materials, stable with temperature and extremely amenable to miniaturization. Sample preparation for structural analysis and dielectric, had the addition of CaCu3Ti4O12 to the phase MgTiO3 calcined in ratios of 4.0; 6.0; 8.0; 10.0 and 12.0 % by mass. The X-ray diffraction was important for the structural characterization of the obtained composite. The morphology of the samples was observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The dielectric characterization of radio frequency spectroscopy of impedance was performed which occurred two conductivity mechanisms for a sample. Models of dielectric relaxation approach the Cole-Cole and Havriliak-Negami type model. The experiments indicated that it is possible to obtain ceramic composites with good values of dielectric permittivity and low dielectric losses, resulting in scalebility and efficiency for devices designed to operate in those frequencies. Numerical simulation was performed with samples verifying good agreement with the experimental data. They studied the BiNbO4 phase doped with copper oxide and its possible applications in RF and Microwave. Addition of CaCu3Ti4O12 with MgTiO3 matrix contributed to the reduction of temperature coefficient of resonant frequency -39.25 ppm/°C to 9.62 ppm/°C, increased dielectric permittivity and dielectric loss. This thesis also presents a proposal for samples act as dielectric resonator antennas in the frequency range of 5.4 GHz to 6.1 GHz (C-band).The composites evaluated in this work has behaved properly as materials for use in microwave
