Dielectric and structural characteristics of perovskites and related materials as a function of tolerance factor
The temperature coefficient of the dielectric permittivity (τ ϵ ) and resonant frequency (τ f ) of perovskites and related materials is important in the application of these ceramics to microwave filters and resonators. Recent work has directly related changes in τ ϵ , and therefore τ f , to the ons...

Summary: | The temperature coefficient of the dielectric permittivity (τ
ϵ
) and resonant frequency (τ
f
) of perovskites and related materials is important in the application of these ceramics to microwave filters and resonators. Recent work has directly related changes in τ
ϵ
, and therefore τ
f
, to the onset of octahedral tilting in Ba- and Sr-based complex perovskites. Whether a compound is tilted at room temperature or not depends largely on the tolerance factor, t. The relationship between t and τ
ϵ
is reviewed in perovskites and the effect of changing tolerance factor on τ
