Spark plasma sintering (SPS) is an efficient tool to obtain highly densified ferroelectric-dielectric ceramic composites with clean interfaces and tunable properties. Dielectric MgO and ferroelectric Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 (BST) were combined in two-dimensional multilayer and three-dimensional random powders design. Their unmodified BST Curie temperature proves the suppression of interdiffusion while dielectric losses are below 0.5% and the tunability is 40% at room temperature. The composites and pure BST with similar densities (>95%) were obtained, owing reliable comparison of their dielectric properties. Such SPS ceramics can be used as experimental input for simulation and are potential candidates for high frequency applications.
