Research Progress of Ba(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3 Microwave Dielectric Ceramics: A Review

Ba(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O-3 (BZN) microwave dielectric ceramics have attracted great attention due to their high-quality factor (Q), near-zero temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (tau(f)), and suitable dielectric constant (epsilon(r)), making them promising materials for application in microwave devices. Due to their superior dielectric properties, composite perovskite ceramics are widely used in the field of microwave communication, base stations, navigation, radar, etc. This article summarized the latest research progress of BZN ceramics and discusses the main preparation methods and performance modifications. Furthermore, the problems faced by BZN ceramics and solutions to improve their performance, as well as their potential applications, are analyzed. This article provides a reference for the design and preparation of BZN ceramics.
