Abstract

It has been generally accepted that the product of the unloaded quality factor and resonant frequency is the universal parameter for comparison of dielectric resonators with different size.1,2 However, it is suggested in this study that this universal parameter should be modified due to the presence of the polarons. From the frequency dependence of the unloaded quality factor, it is possible to extract the factor determined only by the phonon scattering effects, and we denoted this parameter by Qs. It was found that the Qs parameter for ZrxSnzTiyO4 (ZST) and Ba(Zn1/3Ta2/3)O3 (BZT) ceramics showed constancy in the frequency range of 2–12 GHz, which supports the idea of polaron conduction loss contribution to the dielectric loss.
