  • Patent number: 7557055
    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention provides an electronically tunable dielectric material, comprising at least one electronically tunable dielectric phase and at least one compound of low loss complex perovskites. The at least one electronically tunable dielectric phase may be selected from the group consisting of barium strontium titanate, barium titanate, strontium titanate, barium calcium titanate, barium calcium zirconium titanate, lead titanate, lead zirconium titanate, lead lanthanum zirconium titanate, lead niobate, lead tantalate, potassium strontium niobate, sodium barium niobate/potassium phosphate, potassium niobate, lithium niobate, lithium tantalate, lanthanum tantalate, barium calcium zirconium titanate, sodium nitrate, and combinations thereof. Further, the barium strontium titanate may of the formula BaxSr1-xTiO3, where x is from about 0 to about 1, or more specifically, but not limited in this respect, may also be of the formula BaxSr1-xTiO3, where x may be from about 0.15 to about 0.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6960546
    Abstract: Dielectric composite materials including an electronically tunable dielectric phase and a calcium and oxygen-containing compound are disclosed. The tunable phase may comprise a material such as barium strontium titanate. The calcium/oxygen compound may comprise CaO or a transition metal-containing compound such as Ca2Nb2O7 or CaTiO3. The material may also include a rare earth oxide dopant such as CeO2. The materials resist dielectric breakdown and possess improved combinations of electronic properties. The materials may be tailored for specific applications.
