Samples were synthesized by the mixed-oxide route and their properties were compared to BaScxFe12-xO19 ferrites. It was shown by XRD that the hexagonal lattice parameters with x for Me = Ga and Sc vary continuously. For Me = Y no single-phase ferrites were obtained indicating that the solubility limit for Y in Ba ferrite is very limited. For Me = Ga and Sc, the saturation magnetization at room temperature is reduced with x. The coercivity as well as the ferromagnetic resonance frequency remain almost unchanged for Ga-substituted ferrites, whereas for Sc-substituted ferrites the coercivity and ferromagnetic resonance frequency decrease with x. Thick films of Sc-ferrite (x = 0.5) were screen-printed onto LTCC tape substrates and post-fired at 900°C. Application of a magnetic field during drying allows fabrication of textured ferrite layers. Alternatively, ferrite tapes and LTCC tapes were successfully co-fired at 900°C.en2158-3226AIP Advances2020217American Inst. of Physicshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/TechnikGa-, Y-, and Sc-substituted M-type ferrites for self-biasing circulators in LTCC microwave modulesJournal Article10.15480/882.271910.1063/1.513041910.15480/882.2719Other
