Improve the dielectric properties of PrSrNi0.8Mn0.2O4 compounds by longer mechanical milling

2018

Abstract Structural and dielectric properties of PrSrNi 0.8 Mn 0.2 O 4 ceramics elaborated by a rapid method combining mechanical milling and heat treatment were studied for the first time. The raw materials are milled at different times ( t mil  =  0, 5, 10, 20 and 30 h) and annealed at 1300 °C for 8 h to produce a revealed PrSrNi 0.8 Mn 0.2 O 4 single phase, exhibiting tetragonal structure with space group I 4/ mmm . This result was confirmed by using the TEM/ED pattern for sample milled at 30 h using the [001] orientation. The corresponding lattice images show a well-ordered compound, indicating the absence of stacking faults and the growth of the crystallites. Giant dielectric response …

Enhancement of the dielectric response through Al-substitution in La1.6Sr0.4NiO4 nickelates

2016

The structures and dielectric properties of La1.6Sr0.4Ni1−xAlxO4 (x = 0, 0.2 and 0.4) ceramics elaborated using the Pechini method were studied for the first time. The same unique tetragonal phase was found in all compounds. The lattice parameters were found using Rietveld refinement. The surface morphology characterization and elemental analysis of these samples were respectively carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). A giant dielectric response was observed in these ceramics, and one dielectric relaxation was found. The substitution of nickel with aluminum results in a colossal dielectric constant value (>106). The dielectric l…

Microwave properties and structure of La–Ti–Si–B–O glass-ceramics for applications in GHz electronics

2017

Abstract A dielectric bulk glass-ceramic of the La 2 O 3 –TiO 2 –SiO 2 –B 2 O 3 system is developed which is able to fulfill the requirements for dielectric loading-based mobile communication technologies. It is shown that the given dielectric requirements can be fulfilled by glass-ceramic materials without being dependent on ceramic processing techniques. The material exhibited permittivity values of 20  ɛ r Qf τ f τ f material with a Qf value of 9500 GHz and ɛ r  = 21.4 could be achieved at a ceramming temperature T cer  = 870 °C. The material is aimed to provide an alternative to existing, commercially used sintered ceramic materials. Further focus is laid on the investigation of the dom…

Domain Walls Motions in Barium Titanate Ceramics

1996

The shear modulus and mechanical loss at low frequencies (0.01, 0.3, 1 Hz) are measured by an inverted pendulum for BaTiO 3 ceramic with large grain sizes. The permittivity and dielectric losses are also investigated for the same material at higher frequencies between 1 and 100 kHz as function of temperature. Those results show several relaxation peaks in the ferroelectric phases. The activation energy of each peak is obtained to be 0.29, 0.45, 0.68, 0.92 eV. The influences of strain amplitude and thermal treatments are studied specially for the mechanical relaxation peak located in the tetragonal phase. All the relaxation peaks could be associated to the interaction of oxygen vacancies in …

Effect of low amount of nanosilica on dielectric properties of polypropylene

2010

This paper presents the results of the dielectric properties measurements conducted on Silica-Polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites. According to prior investigations by the authors silica nanoparticles have improved the performance of the dielectric material considering capacitor applications. Especially breakdown strengths with ac and dc voltages and resistance against surface degradation have increased. The relative permittivity and dielectric losses have also been comparable to reference PP. In this paper the results of the dielectric measurements conducted on composites with 1-2 wt-% silica are compared with reference PP. Silica dispersion in PP was confirmed with transmission electron mic…

Structure of doped polyaniline - dielectric spectroscopy measurements

1993

The role of doping reagents (residual water and acid anions) in determining the electric properties of a chemically synthesized polyaniline (PANI) was studied using a dielectric spectroscopy method. Dependencies of dielectric losses and susceptibility of PANI as the functions of temperature (-100÷+100°C) and electric field frequency (0.3÷30000 Hz) were examined at it was shown the role of water acts as a doping impurity similar to acid anions. The model is proposed to explain the role of water in terms of adsorption of H 2 O molecules at nitrogen sites of PANI chain and their dissociation

Polaronic relaxation in perovskites

1995

We report a low-temperature loss anomaly in several oxidic perovskites such as ${\mathrm{KTaO}}_{3}$, ${\mathrm{KTaO}}_{3}$:Nb, ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$, ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$:Ca, ${\mathrm{PbTiO}}_{3}$:La, Cu, and ${\mathrm{BaTiO}}_{3}$:La. We show that this anomaly arises from a low-frequency dielectric relaxation. The activation energy and the relaxation time of this process are nearly the same for all the investigated perovskites disregarding their composition, texture, and ferroelectric properties. We thus ascribe the loss anomaly to the localization of polarons on residual defects. Although the dielectric losses in ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$ and ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$:Ca are qualitatively …

The dielectric relaxation properties of a combined main-chain/side-chain liquid-crystalline polymer were investigated. It was found that the rotation of the side chain about the main chain (δ-process) is not as strongly restricted as in side-chain liquid-crystalline polymers. This is attributed to the facts that the side chain is attached to the flexible spacer within the chain backbone and that the concentration of the side chains is comparatively small. Two low-temperature relaxation processes were observed to occur in the glassy smectic and the crystalline state. They are attributed to intramolecular motions with in the mesogenic groups.

Quantum paraelectric and induced ferroelectric states in

1996

Nominally pure has been studied by dielectric spectroscopy using small (linear regime) as well as large electrical fields (non-linear regime) up to . In addition measurements of the specific heat and its field-dependent contribution have been carried out. The field dependence of the dielectric constant and the specific heat can be well described by the transverse Ising Hamiltonian including tunnelling and external field terms. It gives evidence for the existence of polar clusters at low temperatures which are supposed to be associated with the quantum paraelectric state below in accord with recent free-energy calculations. The low-field third-harmonic susceptibility which measures the polar…
