Dielectric response of disordered BaBi2Nb2O9perovskite ceramics
2007
Studies of dielectric properties of BaBi2Nb2O9 ceramics are reported. Considerable dispersion of ?* at low- and infra-low frequencies has been revealed in the region of the diffused phase transition. Dispersion of ?* is divided into ''low-temperature'' dispersion related to relaxation of polar formations and their boundaries and ''high-temperature'' dispersion (at T ? Tm) the main contribution to which comes from Maxwell-Wagner relaxation.
Dielectric properties of solutions of antimony (III) halides in methanol
1993
The complex permittivities obtained by time domain reflectometry (TDR) measurements in the frequency range 0.1–15 GHz are reported for solutions of SbF3, SbCl3 and SbBr3 in methanol at 25°C. By increasing the concentration of the solutes, a marked increase of the main relaxation time and of the static permittivity of methanol is observed. These effects have been attributed to the ability of antimony (III) halides to strengthen the hydrogen bonding in methanol and to promote the shift of the dynamic equilibria among the various populations of hydrogen bonded methanol aggregates toward those characterized by a parallel orientation of neighboring dipoles. A second relaxation, occurring at low …
Dielectric response of α-LiIO3 acid type crystals
1998
Abstract α-LiIO 3 is often used as non-linear optical material. In view of its preparation, low pH aqueous solutions are used as mother solutions, which give crystals with some hydrogen incorporated to the lattice. Thus, dielectric characterization appears as a very important tool. In this work, the dielectric properties of acid type α-LiIO 3 crystals (conductivity, permittivity, loss-angle tangent) are investigated as functions of temperature and frequency, through an original method allowing seemingly continuous measurements and avoiding space charge contributions to the measurements. The results show the dipolar and low frequency conductivity contributions to the dielectric response. The…
Nonresonant dielectric hole-burning spectroscopy on a titanium-modified lead magnesium niobate ceramic
2001
Nonresonant dielectric hole-burning experiments were performed on the titanium-modified relaxor ferroelectric lead magnesium niobate around the diffuse maximum in the dielectric permittivity. After applying large alternating electric pump fields we monitored the polarization response to small field steps for times between 0.3 ms and 100 s. Depending on the frequency of the pump oscillation a speedup of the polarization response was observed with a maximum located around times corresponding to the inverse pump frequency. The refilling of the dielectric holes was investigated for several temperatures, pump frequencies, and pump field amplitudes. It proceeded always slower than the time scale …
Molecular interactions in 1-pentanol +2-methyl-2-butanol mixtures: Static dielectric constant, viscosity and refractive index investigations at 5, 25…
1989
Static dielectric constants, refractive indices and viscosities of 1-pentanol +2-methyl-2-butanol mixtures were measured at 5, 25 and 45°C. The results show that the mixing of the two isomers modifies the polarizability and the resistence of viscous flow of the system depending on the composition and temperature. Short range intermolecular interactions producing hetero-alcohol open dimers are considered.
The weight function for charges - A rigorous theoretical concept for Kelvin probe force microscopy
2016
A comprehensive discussion of the physical origins of Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) signals for charged systems is given. We extend the existing descriptions by including the openloop operation mode, which is relevant when performing KPFM in electrolyte solutions. We define the contribution of charges to the KPFM signal by a weight function, which depends on the electric potential and on the capacitance of the tip-sample system. We analyze the sign as well as the lateral decay of this weight function for different sample types, namely, conductive samples as well as dielectric samples with permittivities both larger and smaller than the permittivity of the surrounding medium. Dependin…
Compositional Evolution of Properties in Epitaxial Films of Relaxor PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3-PbTiO3
2005
Epitaxial heterostructures of relaxor (1− x) PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3−(x) PbTiO3 thin films with La0.5Sr0.5CoO3 bottom electrodes were grown by pulsed laser ablation on MgO substrates. Perovskite films with x = 0–0.32 were deposited using sub-monolayer mixing from two targets. Both the room-temperature studies of microstructure and studies of dielectric response as a function of frequency and temperature were performed. For all x, a relaxor-like behavior was observed. The compositional evolution of lattice parameter, permittivity, and temperature of dielectric maxima T m was in a qualitative agreement with that in bulk. The relatively low temperatures T m in the presence of an in-plane compression we…
Digital estimators of relaxation spectra
2007
Determination of the distribution of relaxation times (DRT) from a wide variety of the time- and the frequency-domain material functions, such as polarization current and charge, real and imaginary parts of complex dielectric permittivity and complex dielectric modulus, the appropriate mechanical and magnetic counterparts is generalized as a filtering problem on a logarithmic time or frequency scale. Algorithms of the appropriate digital DRT estimators are derived. A novel regularization strategy is proposed based on choosing sampling rate for the input data, which ensures acceptably low random error of the recovered spectra. Optimum frequency ranges and sampling rates are found for determi…
Dielectric properties and ac conductivities of Bi1−xSmxFeO3 ceramics
2019
Dielectric permittivity, dielectric losses and ac-conductivity of polycrystalline Bi1−xSmxFeO3 (x = 0; 0.05; 0.1; 0.15; 0.2) are measured in the frequency range 1 kHz–10 MHz and in the temperature range 25–600 °C. Anomalies have been observed at the 200 °C, 300 °C and at the Néel temperature. It has been demonstrated that doping with Sm has enhanced the dielectric properties and increased conduction in the frequency region 1 MHz) and at a certain temperature Tm, depending on the composition Bi1−xSmxFeO3, the conductivity reaches a maximum. The results are discussed with reference to the model of correlated barrier hopping.
Can be GPR technique useful for strength characterization of concrete?
2010
The possibility of material characterization through the GPR measurements, taking into account the integration with the ultrasonic technique, has been studied and possible relationships between the permittivity of materials and their bulk density are discussed. We present here two different approaches. The first one describes an attempt to correlate the mechanical strength of concrete (as well the ultrasonic velocity) with the permittivity of the material. A series of samples of concrete, characterized by different material properties, were used for georadar and ultrasonic measures, seeking correlations among experimental data. The second approach illustrates the comparison between GPR and …
