Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electronic ceramics technology, specifically relating to a high-power, low-loss Li-based microwave ferrite for LTCC and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] As phased array radar systems develop towards miniaturization, integration, and multifunctionality, key components such as phase shifters require lower insertion loss, higher peak power, and faster response speeds. Li-based ferrites, due to their high rectangularity and high saturation magnetization (4πM), are ideal for this purpose. s ), high Curie temperature (T) c Lithium-based ferrites are considered excellent candidate materials for microwave ferrite phase shifters due to their advantages such as low spin linewidth and low ferromagnetic resonance linewidth (ΔH). To meet the requirements of miniaturization and integration of microwave ferrite devices, current research on lithium-based ferrites mainly focuses on two aspects: 1) lowering the sintering temperature of ferrites to around 900℃ by introducing additives such as low-melting-point oxides and glass to achieve co-firing with silver electrodes; 2) improving the severe degradation of dielectric and magnetic losses in low-temperature sintered lithium-based ferrites through ion substitution. Furthermore, microwave ferrite devices for high-power applications require not only low electromagnetic losses but also high power handling capabilities. Therefore, simultaneously achieving optimal comprehensive performance in terms of spin linewidth, dielectric loss, and magnetic loss of Li-based ferrite materials under low-temperature sintering conditions is an urgent problem to be solved.

[0004] In summary, none of the above patents and articles have achieved both high spin linewidth and low microwave loss in Li-based ferrite materials under low-temperature sintering conditions (≤900℃). Given the requirements of high power handling capacity and low electromagnetic loss for microwave ferrite devices in LTCC integration technology, a better solution is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that existing LTCC microwave ferrite devices cannot simultaneously achieve high power handling capability and low electromagnetic loss, and to propose a high-power, low-loss Li-based microwave ferrite for LTCC and its preparation method.

[0008] A method for preparing high-power, low-loss Li-based microwave ferrite for LTCC includes the following steps:
[0009] Step 1, Weighing:
[0010] Using analytically pure lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), zinc oxide (ZnO), titanium oxide (TiO2), manganese tetroxide (Mn3O4), cobalt tetroxide (Co3O4), iron oxide (Fe2O3), and bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) as raw materials, the following contents were weighed according to their respective standards: Li2CO3 11.80–12.24 mol%, ZnO 19.87–20.41 mol%, TiO2 10.78–11.08 mol%, Mn3O4 0.39–2.65 mol%, Co3O4 0.04–0.58 mol%, Fe2O3 54.70–56.18 mol%, and Bi2O3 0.09 mol%.
[0011] Step 2, First ball milling:
[0012] Add the raw material weighed in step 1 to a planetary ball mill for one ball milling. The dispersant is deionized water. The mass ratio of raw material to deionized water is 1:1.5. The ball mill speed is 250 r / min and the ball milling time is 4 h.
[0013] Step 3, Preheating:
[0014] After drying and sieving the ball mill slurry obtained in step 2, it is placed in an alumina crucible and pre-calcined in an oxygen atmosphere at 750℃~850℃ for 2h~3h. After completion, it is cooled to room temperature with the furnace and taken out to obtain Li-based microwave ferrite pre-calcined material.
[0015] Step 4, Secondary ball milling:
[0016] The Li-based microwave ferrite pre-calcined material obtained in step 3 and deionized water were added to a planetary ball mill for secondary ball milling. The mass ratio of pre-calcined material to deionized water was 1:1.3, the ball mill speed was 250 r / min, and the ball milling time was 6 h. After the ball milling was completed, the slurry was dried.
[0017] Step 5, Shaping:
[0018] After sieving the secondary ball milling material obtained in step 4, add 8-12 wt.% of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) binder equivalent to the powder mass to granulate, and then press it into a ring-shaped green sample using a hydraulic press.
[0019] Step 6, Sintering:
[0020] The green sample obtained in step 5 is placed in a sintering furnace and heated to 600°C at a rate of 1°C / min, and held for 1-2 hours to remove the binder; then, the temperature is increased to the sintering temperature of 880-890°C at a rate of 1°C / min, and held for 2-3 hours; after sintering, the temperature is reduced to 600°C at a rate of 1°C / min; finally, the sample is allowed to cool naturally to room temperature with the furnace to obtain Li-based microwave ferrite.
[0021] This invention provides a high-power, low-loss Li-based microwave ferrite for LTCC. First, Zn is selected. 2+ -Ti 4+ -Bi 3 + Ion-substituted Li-based microwave ferrite iron-deficient formulation, Zn 2+ Ti 4+ The combined introduction of ions, besides altering the magnetic moment difference at the AB sites of the sublattice and the superexchange effect, and regulating the saturation magnetization and Curie temperature of the ferrite, also helps to enhance densification and reduce the magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant of the ferrite, thereby reducing porosity and linewidth caused by magnetocrystalline anisotropy; while an appropriate amount of Bi 3+ Ion substitution effectively reduced the sintering temperature and microwave magnetic loss of ferrite. Secondly, the combined approach of introducing high-valence Mn and high-valence Co ions effectively suppressed Fe... 2+ The generation of Co ions reduces dielectric loss; however, Co ions, due to their large positive magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant, increase the ferromagnetic resonance linewidth, while Mn tends to occupy the central A sites of the tetrahedron.2+ Ions and Mn that tend to occupy the central B site of the octahedron 3+ When ions are introduced, the superexchange effect at the AB sites weakens, thus reducing magnetic loss. Therefore, the low dielectric loss of the microwave ferrite is maintained without increasing the ferromagnetic resonance linewidth. Furthermore, the Mn in manganese tetroxide (Mn3O4)... 2+ / Mn 3+ The addition of ions leads to the precipitation of bismuth ferrite, resulting in ferrite grain refinement and shortening the spin wave transit time; based on this, Co from cobalt tetroxide (Co3O4), which has rapid relaxation characteristics, is introduced. 2+ / Co 3+ Ions further enhance the spin wave linewidth.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0032] 1. This invention introduces high-valence Mn ions into Li-based microwave ferrites, altering the ferrite grain size distribution. In particular, the increased proportion of fine grains leads to a greater spin wave linewidth ΔH. k Enhancement: Based on grain refinement, the introduction of an appropriate amount of Co ions with rapid relaxation characteristics further enhances the spin wave linewidth ΔH of the ferrite. k .
[0033] 2. This invention considers iron-deficient formulations in material structure design and adds high-valence metal oxides Mn3O4 and Co3O4 to the raw materials.
