Electronically graded multilayer ferroelectric composites
First Claim
1. A laminated ceramic ferrolectric material having a graded dielectric constant comprising a plurality of adjacent layers, said layers having no air gaps between the discrete layers and formed of a composition comprising 0 to 100% of Ba1-x Srx TiO3 wherein x is greater than 0.0 but less than 0.75, and 100 to 0% by weight of at least one low dielectric constant low dielectric loss oxide selected from the group consisting of Al2 O3 ZrO2 and MgO, wherein the ratio of said Ba1-x Srx TiO3 to said oxide is different in each layer, said layers being arranged in order of decreasing dielectric constant and laminated together.

Abstract
A laminated ceramic ferroelectric material has adjacent layers of Barium ontium Titanate (BSTO)--oxide composite stacked in order of descending oxide content and sized in thickness to produce a generally equal capacitance across each layer, resulting in a material having a graded dielectric constant for use in phased array antenna, for example. The oxides are from the metallic oxide group consisting of alumina, zirconia and magnesia and the layers are produced by tape casting.
