Dense MgAl(2-2x)(Mg0.5Ti0.5)2xO4 ceramics with low permittivity were prepared by a standard solid-state reaction method. The single phase with spinel structure were achieved at x ⤠0.10. Fd-3m space group was revealed by XRD, and the refined structure was analyzed by Rietveld analysis. Partial substitution of [Mg0.5Ti0.5]3+ for Al3+ could effectively reduce the densification temperatures and significantly improve dielectric constants and quality factor (QÃf) values compared to the MgAl2O4 ceramics. The increase in dielectric constant was attributed to the increasing normalized bond lengths of Al-O bonds and the higher polarizability of [Mg0.5Ti0.5]3+ than Al3+. In addition, the quality factor (QÃf) and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (Ïf) were closely related to the cation disorder of the B-site characterized by the full width at half-maximum of Eg mode assigned to asymmetric bending of MgO4 tetrahedra.
