Abstract:
According to the debate on the origin of the giant permittivity of CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) ceramics, a small amount of MnO2 substitution for CuO or TiO2 was adopted to prepare the ceramics with nominal composition of CaCu3-xMnxTi4O12 (x=0-0.3) or CaCu3Ti4-yMnyO12 (y=0-0.1) by solid-state reaction method. The mechanism of giant dielectric response in CCTO ceramics was discussed in view of microstructure evolution and variation of electric properties. The results show that CCTO ceramics with a small amount of MnO2 substitution exhibit BCC perovskite single phase, but the abnormal growth grain gradually disappears and grains become obviously uniform and fine. Meantime, resistivity significantly increases from 107 to 109 Ω·cm, dielectric constant is abruptly suppressed from 104 to 102, and dielectric loss is greatly reduced from 10-1 to 10-3. An internal barrier layer capacitor (IBLC) is associated with relative insulating grains/subgrains and semiconducting grain boundaries/subgrain boundaries. CCTO ceramics with high dielectric constant, low dielectric loss and good temperature stability are achieved at lower sintering temperature (
