Transparent for microwave electrodes for applications in nonlinear devices based on ferroelectric ceramic

Abstract This article provides the results of an experimental investigation of characteristics of thin-films transparent electrodes deposited on ferroelectric ceramic plates. The experimental investigation of parameters of ZnO and resistive alloy of Si-Ti-Ce deposited on ferroelectric BSTO plates was performed. The influence of transparent electrode deposition on properties of ferroelectric ceramic based on a solid solution of barium-strontium titanate was investigated. The measured low insertion loss of the Si-Ti-Ce thin-film deposited on BSTO ceramic substrate allows considering this material as the perspective for the transparent for microwaves electrodes realization.
