Popis: Ba0.95Ca0.05Ti0.85Zr0.15O3(BCTZ) dielectric ceramics were fabricated by traditional solid-state method, using barium carbonate, calcium carbonate, titanium dioxide and zirconium dioxide as the starting materials. Rare earth dopants have a significant influence on the dielectric properties of BCTZ ceramics. The doping effects of Y and Ho with different content on the dielectric properties and structure were studied respectively. The results reveal that the effects of Y and Ho are similar, they perfer to occpy B site, and they move the dielectric peak to lower temperature, widen the peak and increase the insulation resistivity, thus improve the dielectric properties obviously. The effects were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and dielectric property measurements. After rare earth elements-doping, the BCTZ ceramics satify the Y5V EIA specifications, mainly due to the change of structure. The BCTZ dielectric ceramics with high permittivity over 10,000, high insulation resistivity over 1012Ωcm, low dielectric loss less than 1%, can be applied in multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs).
