Abstract
In this study, the CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) ceramic phase was synthesized by microwave heating in a much shorter time compared to the conventional heating methods. The results indicate that microwave processing is a promising method for preparing CCTO ceramics. CCTO was prepared using a domestic microwave oven operated at 2.45 GHz with 800 W. After a few minutes of microwave irradiation the formation of CCTO was confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction. The CCTO ceramic was studied in the medium-frequency (MF) range (100 Hz–1 MHz) and in the microwave range of frequencies. The experimental and theoretical characteristics of the dielectric resonator antenna are investigated.
