Abstract
A two-step process, which includes the formation of B-site compounds, MgTa2 O6, followed by the formation of Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O-3, BMT, perovskite by reac ting BaCO3 with MgTa2O6, has been successfully applied for synthesizing BMT materials. The powders prepared by 2-step process exhibit superior reactiv ity and result in ceramics with larger Q-factor (Q.f(o), =600,000 GHz) than the properties obtainable fur the materials prepared by the single-step pr ocess. Thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses indicate that th e mechanism is the effective suppression on the formation of secondary phas e, Ba5Ta4O15.
