Abstract: | Lithium silicate ceramics were prepared via solid-state reaction technique. Two ceramics with different molar ratios of Li2CO3/SiO2 (designed as L1S and L2S) were prepared for dielectric studies. X-ray diffraction pattern showed that L1S ceramic is obtained as single-phase composition, whereas L2S ceramic exhibit multiphase with Li4SiO4 as a major phase. Dielectric studies of the compounds shows a strong frequency dispersion of permittivity in the low frequency region followed by a nearly frequency independent behavior in the high frequency region. Dielectric loss (tan δ) seems to be reduced at higher frequencies after reaching the instrumental saturation. The present study reveals that high dielectric compositions can be realized by Li2O-rich system (i.e., L2S ceramic). From the dielectric studies, we can prescribe L1S ceramic as a good dielectric material since it possesses low dielectric loss. The values of activation energies suggest the presence of singly ionized oxygen vacancies in the conduction process. |
