Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of electronic materials, and specifically provides a ferrite thick film material with low ferromagnetic resonance linewidth and high dielectric constant and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of high-frequency wireless communications and big data, microwave high-frequency devices for wireless communications have become a key component. Driven by the demands of integrated microwave systems, microwave devices are increasingly demanding high integration, chip-based design, and high performance. Research on microwave device substrate materials and the design of miniaturized microwave devices have become internationally recognized topics. The use of materials with low ferromagnetic resonance linewidth and high dielectric constant as microwave device substrates is driven by the influence of these materials' electromagnetic parameters on device size and performance. As transmission efficiency increases, the transmission loss requirements for microwave devices are becoming increasingly lower. From a fundamental material perspective, the requirements for ferromagnetic resonance linewidth are becoming increasingly stringent. Lower ferromagnetic resonance linewidths enable microwave devices to achieve lower microwave losses and higher transmission efficiency. High dielectric constants meet the application requirements of miniaturized microwave devices. Furthermore, to meet the integration and space requirements of microwave systems, devices are increasingly being developed in a chip-based format.

[0003] For substrate materials with low ferromagnetic resonance linewidth and high dielectric constant, many studies have focused on yttrium iron garnet (Y3Fe5O 12, YIG) materials; for example, the patent document with patent number 202110239907.3 discloses a high dielectric constant microwave ferrite material and its preparation method and application, which adopts Sn-Al-Sm collaborative ion substitution to improve the dielectric constant of YIG ferrite (above 18) while maintaining good magnetic properties, and adopts Bi element ion substitution to maintain large grain size and reduce the ferromagnetic resonance line width; for example, the patent document with patent number 202210164462.1 discloses a medium saturation magnetization intensity power type high dielectric constant garnet material and its preparation method , using Bi-Ca-Dy-Zr-Sn-In-Sb and other ions to regulate the dielectric constant of YIG materials (dielectric constant is 25-26), while maintaining good magnetic properties such as saturation magnetization; for example, the patent document with patent number 202110324952.9 discloses a low-temperature sintered YIG gyromagnetic ferrite material and its preparation method, using Bi-Zn-V plasma to regulate the sintering temperature and magnetic properties of YIG, and obtaining a YIG material sintered below 960°C, which has certain saturation magnetization, low coercive force and low loss characteristics. However, the YIG materials prepared in the above patent documents are all YIG powders. In order to meet the high integration requirements of microwave systems, the present invention is based on ferromagnetic resonance linewidth and high dielectric constant ferrite, and forms thick film materials through a spinning process to further meet the higher demands of microwave devices.
