摘要

Rare earth ion-doped SrTiO3-based colossal permittivity (CP, relative permittivity is defined as Ɛr) ceramics have been investigated, with two typical stoichiometric strategies commonly adopted, namely the charge compensation strategy (valence balance, Sr1−1.5xLnxTiO3) and the equimolar substitution strategy (site balance, Sr1−xLnxTiO3). However, there is currently no unified research standard, and it remains unclear which approach is superior. The Y-doped SrTiO3 (ST) ceramics were fabricated under identical conditions using two stoichiometric strategies, and a comparative study was performed. The Sr1−1.5xLnxTiO3 ceramics possess more strontium vacancies ( \(V^{\prime\prime}_{{S{\text{r}}}}\) V S r ) and oxygen vacancies ( \(V_{O}^{ \bullet \bullet }\) V O ), and form more abundant defect dipoles. Consequently, the Sr0.979Y0.014TiO3 (valence balance) ceramics exhibit a CP of 24,870 and a low dielectric loss (tanδ, 0.02) at 1 kHz and room temperature. The valence balance Ln‑doped ST ceramics exhibit not only a higher Ɛᵣ across the measured frequency range but also improved frequency stability compared to the site balance ones. It is provided a theoretical basis for the design strategies toward the preparation and performance optimization of ST‑based CP ceramics.
