Highlights: • Introduction of TeO{sub 2} to MO-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} (M = Ca,Sr,Ba) ceramics promoted a M{sub 2}V{sub 2}O{sub 7} phase formation, and obtain excellent dielectric properties and a densification sintering at below 600°. • Chemical compatibility of ULTCC ceramics with aluminum electrode indicated that aluminum did not react with MO-TeO{sub 2}-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} ceramics. • Aluminum easily encouraged the transformation of M{sub 2}V{sub 2}O{sub 7} structures to M{sub 3}(VO{sub 4}){sub 2} structures and other structures under the ultra-low temperature sintering. - Abstract: Influences of TeO{sub 2} on phase evolutions and sintering behaviors of MO-TeO{sub 2}-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) ultralow temperature ceramics were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Dielectric properties of MO-TeO{sub 2}-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) ceramics and their chemical compatibility with an aluminum electrode were also studied. Introducing TeO{sub 2} to MO-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) ceramics obviously decreased the sintering temperature and promoted formation of M{sub 2}V{sub 2}O{sub 7} (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) phases. Also, dielectric properties mainly depend on the amount of TeO{sub 2} added to MO-TeO{sub 2}-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} ceramics. Investigation of chemical compatibility with aluminum shows that aluminum does not react chemically with MO-TeO{sub 2}-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} ceramics; however, aluminum causes transformation of M{sub 2}V{sub 2}O{sub 7} phases to other phases (such as M{sub 3}(VO{sub 4}){sub 2}) to be easier. Sintering temperature of MO-TeO{sub 2}-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) ceramics can be regulated below 600 °C, which is much less than the melting point of aluminum. In addition, MO-TeO{sub 2}-V{sub 2}O{sub 5} (M = Ca, Ba) ceramics maintain quality factors of ∼18,000 GHZ, a dielectric constant of 10–12, and dielectric loss lower than 10{sup −4}.
