Abstract in Portuguese
A classe de óxidos contendo nióbio (Nb) ou tântalo (Ta) e possuindo estrutura AB2O6 (A = Mg, Zn, Ca e B = Nb, Ta) do tipo columbita ou trirutilo, tem sido investigada devido a sua potencialidade para ressonadores na freqüência de microondas (GHz), os quais podem ser usados em sistemas de comunicação móvel e satélite, tais como telefones celulares e sistemas de comunicação pessoal. Preparamos corpos cerâmicos densos pelo método convencional de mistura de óxidos e reação no estado sólido. A rota de processamento e condições ótimas de sinterização foram desenvolvidas para as cerâmicas de MgTa2O6 (MT), ZnTa2O6 (ZT), MgNb2O6 (MN) e ZnNb2O6 (ZN). Temperaturas de sinterização a 1300°C para os niobatos e 1400°C para os tantalatos, para tempos de patamar de 8 horas, promoveram alta densificação atingindo-se densidades relativas maiores que 98% em todos os casos. Na caracterização dielétrica das cerâmicas de ZT e MT, por meio de medidas de impedância nas faixas de freqüência de 24MHz a 1,5GHz, determinamos as constantes dielétricas com valores de ε´=32 para o MT e ε´=36,5 para o ZT; resultados similares aos melhores existentes na literatura. Na fase monocristalina, estes materiais possuem potencialidades para aplicação em geração, transmissão, detecção e conversão de sinais ópticos em uma larga faixa de comprimentos de onda e níveis de potência. Fibras de CaTa2O6 puderam ser eficientemente obtidas pela técnica de Laser Heated Pedestal Growth (LHPG) e a dopagem desses compostos com íons terras raras de Nd3+ e Er3+foi uma alternativa para a obtenção de um material laser ativo. O estudo de fibras dos compostos do tipo ATa2O6 como meio laser ativo, não tem sido devidamente explorado. Resultados de espectroscopia óptica com fibras de CaTa2O6 dopadas com íon de Nd+3revelaram ser um novo material laser ativo para ser bombeado com laser de diodo.

Abstract in English
The c1ass of oxides containing the elements niobium or tantalum with AB2O6 (A= Mg e Zn; B= Nb e Ta) structure of the type columbite or trirutilo, has been investigated due to their potentialities for applications in dielectric resonators at microwave frequencies (GHz), which can be used for mobile and satellite communications, as in cell phones and personal communication systems. We have prepared dense ceramic bodies by conventional method of oxides mixture followed by solid state reaction. The experimental route and sintering conditions were developed for the MgTa2O6 (MT), ZnTa2O6 (ZT), MgNb2O6 (MN) and ZnNb2O6 (ZN) ceramics. It was observed that sintering under temperatures of 1300°C for the niobates, and 1400°C for the tantalates, for 8 hours, promoted densities higher than 98% for all ceramic bodies. Impedance spectroscopy was used for the dielectric characterization of MT and ZT ceramics in the frequency range of 24MHz to 1.5GHz and the values of dielectric constant are ε´=32 and ε´ =36.5 respectively. These results are comparable to the best results found in the literature. Moreover, it is also shown that while in the single crystal form, these materials might be used for the generation, transmission, detection, and conversion of optical signals, over a broad range of wavelengths and power levels. Undoped or doped (Nd3+ or Er3+) CaTa2O6 (CT) single crystal fibers were efficiently obtained by the laser−heated pedestal growth (LHPG) technique. The doped samples were characterized from the structural and spectroscopic points of view, aiming to investigate them as potential candidates for compact laser active media, which can be pumped by low cost diode lasers. Although the study of ATa2O6 single crystal fibers for this purpose hasn't been much explored yet, the results obtained for CaTa2O6: Nd+3 fibers are very promising.
