The co-firing compatibility between green tape and the Ag electrode is a crucial characteristic in low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology and plays a vital role in improving the performance and application status of LTCC device modules. In this work, we studied the effects of lead content on the glass viscosity, the microstructure, and co-firing compatibility of silver electrode film. It was found that the softening point and viscosity of the glass were decreased, and the wettability between the glass and silver was improved with the increase of the lead content, which promoted the co-firing densification and interfacial bonding between the silver electrode film and the ceramic layer. The film presented the best electrical properties co-firing at 875 °C for 15 min, with the resistivity of 1.21 mΩ/sq. And the film was densified. The sintering interface was clear and well bonded. The results showed that an appropriate lead content in glass could effectively improve the interfacial bonding and the electrical properties during co-fired process, providing a new control methodology for realizing co-fired matching of the silver electrode film with low-temperature co-fired ceramics.

NiCuZn ferrite is a material suitable for low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology due to its high permeability and relatively low sintering temperature . The main research questions regarding NiCuZn ferrites are focused on reducing the sintering temperature of the NiCuZn ferrites to achieve compatibility with the Ag electrodes and improve their electromagnetic properties. In this study, the electromagnetic properties of NiCuZn (Ni 0.29 Cu 0.14 Zn 0.60 Fe 1.94 O 3.94 ) ferrites were enhanced by doping with Bi 2 O 3 , resulting in a reduction of the sintering temperature to 925 °C. The findings show that a suitable concentration of Bi 2 O 3 doping could promote the growth of grains and result in NiCuZn ferrites with denser microstructures sintered at a low temperature. Furthermore, adding 0.30 wt% Bi 2 O 3 to NiCuZn ferrite enhances its electromagnetic properties, such as a high real part of permeability (∼937.6 @ 1 MHz), high saturation magnetization (∼60.353 emu/g), low coercivity (∼0.265 kA/m), and excellent dielectric constant (∼14.71 @ 1 MHz). In addition, the chemically compatible Ag electrodes suggest that the NiCuZn +0.30 wt% Bi 2 O 3 ceramics may be acceptable for LTCC technology.

In the present work, a wireless microfluidic sensor based on low-temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) technology for real-time detection of metal ions in water is proposed. The wireless sensor is composed of a planar spiral inductor and parallel plate capacitor (LC) resonant antenna, which integrates with the microchannel in the LTCC substrate between the capacitor plates. Aqueous solutions of Pb(NO3)2, Cd(NO3)2, Mg(NO3)2, Ca(NO3)2, NaNO3, and KNO3 with concentrations of 0–100 mM were tested with the sensors. The metal ion and its concentration in water can be tested by the amplitude of the reflection coefficient (S11) and the resonance frequency (fr) of the wireless microfluidic sensor. The metal ion species can be distinguished from the wireless response behavior of the sensor. The detection limit of the sensor for the selected metal ionic solutions could reach as low as 5 μM. The normalized sensitivity of the sensor is 0.47%, which is higher than that of the reported liquid microfluidic sensors based on microwave resonators. The wireless microfluidic sensor of this study is promising for rapid and convenient detection of heavy metal ion pollutants in the industrial wastewater.

A low-firing SrZnV 2 O 7 ceramic was synthesized via a traditional solid-state sintering route. The phase formation, grain morphology, and dielectric performance were studied in detail. Rietveld refinements based on XRD data revealed that SrZnV 2 O 7 crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2 1 /n, which was further confirmed by TEM analysis. The dense SrZnV 2 O 7 ceramic with an ε r of 11.28, a Qf of 56 660 GHz, and a τ f of −27.2 ppm/°C was yielded at a low sintering temperature of 740°C for 4 h. Its chemical compatibility with Ag was verified via XRD and SEM-EDS analysis, which rendered SrZnV 2 O 7 a prospective candidate for LTCC technology.

The demand for high performance microwave devices is increasingly promoting the development of miniaturization, integration and multifunctionalization. Here, a uniform and dense NiCuZn ferrite ceramic with high saturation magnetization and low ferromagnetic resonance linewidth was obtained at 950 °C by adjusting the MnO 2 -Bi 2 O 3 composite additives. The MnO 2 -Bi 2 O 3 composite additives were composed of 0.5 wt% MnO 2 and x wt% Bi 2 O 3 (x = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0). The phase structure, microstructures and magnetic properties were systematically studied by means of modern measurement techniques. SEM images reveal that appropriate MnO 2 -Bi 2 O 3 additions can promote grain growth and reduce sintering temperatures , which is very advantageous for LTCC technology. In addition, the content of MnO 2 -Bi 2 O 3 additives can significantly reduce ferromagnetic resonance linewidth (FMR) by promoting grain growth and densification at low temperatures. Finally, a uniform and compact NiCuZn ferrite ceramic with an improved 4π M s (~ 3812.5 Gauss), a narrow Δ H (~ 144.6 Oe), and a reduced H c (~ 85.2 A/m) were obtained (at 950 °C) by adding the optimal volume of Bi 2 O 3 additive. It is expected that the improved gyromagnetic performances will allow the NiCuZn ferrite ceramics to be promising candidates for X-band microwave devices.

A series of novel low-permittivity microwave dielectric ceramics with the compositions of (1- x ) BaY 2 Si 3 O 10 - x Ba 5 Si 8 O 21 (0.3 ≤ x ≤ 0.7) and 0.4 BaY 2 Si 3 O 10 -0.6 Ba 5 Si 8 O 21 - y wt% LiF (1 ≤ y ≤ 3) were successfully synthesized using solid-state reaction sintering. The phase evolution and microwave dielectric properties of these ceramics were systematically studied. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated the coexistence of BaY 2 Si 3 O 10 and Ba 5 Si 8 O 21 phases in the (1- x ) BaY 2 Si 3 O 10 - x Ba 5 Si 8 O 21 system, with no secondary phases detected. In contrast, an additional Ba 2 Si 3 O 8 phase was identified in the LiF-modified composition (0.4 BaY 2 Si 3 O 10 -0.6 Ba 5 Si 8 O 21 - y wt% LiF (1 ≤ y ≤ 3)). Moreover, the Ba 5 Si 8 O 21 phase was found to effectively tune the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τ f ) to near-zero values in both systems. Excellent microwave dielectric properties were obtained for the 0.4 BaY 2 Si 3 O 10 -0.6 Ba 5 Si 8 O 21 - 2 wt% LiF ceramic, exhibiting a permittivity ( ε r ) of 7.45, a quality factor ( Q × f ) of 13,152 GHz, and a τ f value of −3.17 ppm/°C. This composition also showed good chemical compatibility with silver electrodes, suggesting its potential for use in low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) applications.

This work presents a miniaturization strategy for ferrite circulators by enhancing the dielectric constant ε r of NiCuZn ferrites and LTCC technology. Highly polarizable Cu 2+ and Ti 4+ substitutions for Ni 2+ and Fe 3+ increase dielectric constant, while non-magnetic Ti 4+ reduces magnetocrystalline anisotropy and narrows ferromagnetic resonance linewidth ΔH , with Cu 2+ concurrently lowering sintering temperatures. In the Ni 0.42-x/2 Cu 0.18+x Zn 0.4 Ti x/2 Fe 1.98-x O 4-δ system, the x = 0.1 composition (sintered at 975 °C) achieves minimal ΔH (82 Oe), ε r ≈ 14.6, and 4π M s ≈ 4219 G, whereas x = 0.6 (sintered at 925 °C) balances ε r ≈ 20.8 with magnetic performance ( ΔH ≈167 Oe, 4π M s ≈ 2117 G), confirming LTCC compatibility. A heterostructured substrate fabricated by co-firing Ni 0.12 Cu 0.78 Zn 0.4 Ti 0.3 Fe 1.38 O 4-δ ferrite (x = 0.6) with a microwave dielectric (50 wt.% SrCu 0.95 Mn 0.05 Si 4 O 10 + 50 wt.% Sr 3 V 2 O 8 ) exhibits controlled interfacial diffusion. HFSS simulations demonstrate that the integrated circulator-filter achieves significant miniaturization with >30 dB harmonic suppression (14-24 GHz) while maintaining in-band performance (| S 21 | < 1 dB, | S 11 | and | S 12 | < -20 dB at 7-12 GHz). The validates high- ε r NiCuZn ferrites and LTCC composite substrates for compact multifunctional microwave components.
