New Process for Barium Magnesium Tantalate

XRD pattern for Barium Magnesium Tantalate powder

Perovskites of the type Ba(A1/3B2/3)O3 where A = Mg, Zn and B = Ta, Nb, have created significant interest related to their excellent microwave dielectric properties. Of this group, Barium Magnesium Tantalate has generated considerable interest as a near ideal material for dielectric resonator applications due to its high dielectric constant, unloaded quality factor, and its very low resonant frequency temperature dependence.
