Abstract
Aluminum-doped silicon carbide powders were synthesized via solid state reaction of Si/C system at 1600 in Ar atmosphere, using aluminum powder as the dopant, which were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electronic microscope (SEM). The electric permittivities of the prepared powders were determined in the frequency range of 8.2–12.4 GHz. The dielectric real part ε′ and imaginary part ε″ of undoped powder have minimum values (ε′ = 5.5–5.3, ε″ =0.23–0.20), and increase with increasing aluminum content. The mechanism of dielectric loss by doping has been discussed..
