Pulsed laser deposition of relaxor ferroelectric films
1998
Heterostructures of perovskite relaxor ferroelectric (RFE) thin films onto La 0.5 Sr 0.5 CoO bottom electrode layers were grown by pulsed laser deposition on MgO(100) crystal substrates. The films were highly oriented, with (h00) planes parallel to the substrate surface, and demonstrated good dielectric and ferroelectric quality at room temperature. The studies of the dielectric properties of the films over the frequency range of 20 Hz....100 kHz and over the temperature range of 0...350°C revealed relaxor type behavior in the films. A diffuse ferroelectric phase transition and a shift of the maximum dielectric permittivity towards higher temperatures with increasing frequency were observed…
Processing, basic characterization and standard dielectric measurements on PLZTx/65/35 (4 ≤x≤ 11) ceramics
2014
The influence of external stress (0–800 bar) on the dielectric properties of lead lanthanum zirconium titanate (PLZT) x/65/35 (4 ≤ x ≤ 11) ceramics was investigated. Applying uniaxial pressure leads to a change in the peak intensity of the electric permittivity (ϵ), in its frequency dispersion as well as in the dielectric hysteresis. The peak intensity of ϵ becomes broader and shifts to lower temperatures for PLZT x/65/35 with x = 4, 7, 9.75 and 11, with increasing pressure, on heating. It was concluded that applying uniaxial pressure induces an increase of Tm, and thus has a similar effect as the increase of the Ti ion concentration in the lead zirconium titanate (PZT) system. Results base…
Nonresonant Spectral Hole Burning in the Slow Dielectric Response of Supercooled Liquids
1996
Large-amplitude, low-frequency electric fields can be used to burn spectral holes in the dielectric response of supercooled propylene carbonate and glycerol. This ability to selectively modify the dielectric response establishes that the non-Debye behavior results from a distribution of relaxation times. Refilling of the spectral hole was consistent with a single recovery time that coincided with the peak in the distribution. Moreover, refilling occurred without significant broadening, which indicates negligible direct exchange between the degrees of freedom that responded to the field. Nonresonant spectral hole burning facilitates direct investigation of the intrinsic response of systems t…
Dielectric spectroscopy analysis of EVA-silicate nanocomposite insulating materials
2005
Nanocomposite materials show promising results for applications as electrical insulation. Among several materials presently under investigation, previous works indicate that polypropylene and ethylene-vinilacetate filled by nanosilicates present lower content of space charge and higher electric strength. However, efforts are needed to explain nanocomposite behaviour and characterize their electrical, thermal and mechanical properties. In this paper, the results of broad-band dielectric spectroscopy performed on ethylene-vinylacetate copolymer filled by layered micro and nanosized silicates are reported. The nanofillers consist of montmorillonite and fluorohectorite, that is, natural and syn…
Conditions for achieving invisibility of hyperbolic multilayered nanotubes
2016
Invisibility of nanotubes has recently been demonstrated in highly anisotropic metamaterials in the transition regime from hyperbolic to elliptic dispersion [Sci. Rep. 5 (2015) 16027]. In such study, the characterization of a realistic multilayered metamaterial was carried out by means of an effective medium approach providing average components of the permittivity tensor and wave fields. Here, the edge effects of the metal-dielectric stratified nanotube for different combinations were thoroughly analyzed. We show how the boundary layers, which in principle remain fully irrelevant in the estimation of the effective permittivity of the nanotube, however play a critical role in the scattering…
Semi-empirical indo and shell-model calculations for perovskites
1999
Abstract Structural, phonon and some elastic and dielectric properties have been calculated for various paraelectric or ferroelectric phases of the perovskites KNbO3 and SrTiO3, using either the semi-empirical INDO (Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap) method or a temperature-dependent shell model. The INDO method was used to calculate the energy changes resulting from [100], [110] or [111] displacements of Nb atoms in the cubic perovskite cell of KNbO3, at 0K. The conventional shell model gives a good account of the elastic, dielectric and phonon properties of the cubic phase of strontium titanate at room temperature, but difficulties remain in modelling the permittivity and elast…
Dielectric Permittivity and Conductivity of Li0.07Na0.93Ta0.1Nb0.9O3and Li0.07Na0.93Ta0.111Nb0.889O3Solid Solutions
2011
Results of studies of dielectric properties and conductivity in 290–700 K range of temperature and frequencies from 25 to 106 Hz in ferroelectric perovskite solid solutions Li0.07Na0.93Ta0.1Nb0.9 O3 and Li0.07Na0.93Ta0.111Nb0.889 O3 are reported. A first-order ferroelectric phase transition proceeds in both studied compositions within the observed range of temperature. The co-precipitated Ta2yNb2(1-y)O5 pentoxides being used for synthesis of Li0.07Na0.93Ta0.111Nb0.889O3 the Curie point shifts by ∼75 K to a lower temperature while compared with Li0.07Na0.93Ta0.1Nb0.9O3 synthesised from mechanical mixture of the Ta2O5 and Nb2O5 oxides the high-frequency dielectric permittivity and ion conduct…
Complex permittivity of FeCl3/AOT/CCl4 microemulsions probed by AC impedance spectroscopy
2009
Abstract The complex permittivity of FeCl 3 /AOT/CCl 4 microemulsions in the 1–10 5 Hz frequency range has been measured by the conventional AC complex impedance technique. Measurements as a function of the volume fraction of the dispersed phase (FeCl 3 + AOT) and temperature at fixed salt-to-AOT molar ratio ( R , R = 0.5) show that the entrapment of FeCl 3 clusters significantly enhances the local permittivity of the AOT reverse micelles and the number density of charge carriers resulting from the peculiar state of the confined inorganic salt. An estimate of the apparent static permittivity of the FeCl 3 ionic clusters entrapped in the core of AOT reverse micelles gives the very high an…
Structural and Dielectric Properties of (Na0.5Bi0.5)0.70Ba0.30TiO3 Ceramics.
2003
Abstract A (Na0.5Bi0.5)0.70Ba0.30TiO3 ceramic has been studied by X-ray diffraction and by measurements of dielectric and ferroelectric properties between room temperature and 450 °C. A sharp increase in the electric permittivity and dielectric loss near 200 °C has been observed. This sharp increase in dielectric responses indicates a transformation between normal and relaxor ferroelectric states. It is found that polar regions can exist at higher temperatures. The X-ray diffraction study shows that the transformation corresponds to the first order phase transition from tetragonal to cubic. The use of the (Na0.5Bi0.5)0.70Ba0.30TiO3 ceramic for device application has also been indicated.

2008
By studying the dielectric properties of BaBi 2 Nb 2 O 9 ceramics, a representative of layered ferroelectrics, significant dispersion of ϵ* has been revealed at low- and infra-low frequences in the region of phase transition. Dispersion of ϵ* observed in “low-temperature” region (T T m where the basic contribution to ϵ* is provided by processes of the Maxwell-Wagner relaxation.
