Incorporating the bond-to-band and the potential barrier model [J. Phys. Chem. Solids58, 903 (1997); J. Phys.: Cond. Matt.27, 5823 (1997)] into the existing database reveals that the O-Ru(0001) triphase results from the formation of O -1, hybridized O -2 and the addition of a virtual bond, respectively. Oxygen is located at the center of a tetrahedron, forming a Ru 4 O cluster. Initially (<1/4 ML), the Ru 4 O ( O -1+ Ru ++ 3Ru dipole) forms, retaining C 3v symmetry. Then (1/2 ML), the Ru 4 O develops into a Ru 2 O ( O -2+ 2Ru + + 2Ru dipoles) by forming another bond with a surface Ru atom; as a result, a dipole-ion pairing row forms. Finally (1.0 ML), a virtual bond [2Ru(dipoles)+] forms by redistributing the dipole electrons; this process not only reduces the dipole moment but also narrows the antibond subband. The first layer spacing depends upon bond geometry and the second layer spacing contracts due to charge redistribution.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is modeling the effect of negative capacitance in the capacitance-voltage characteristic of the intergranular potential barrier of varistor structure. Design/methodology/approach – The modeling of the capacitance-voltage characteristic of the intergranular barrier in metal oxide varistor ceramics is based on the development of the algorithm. It includes all the known mechanisms of electrotransfer in a wide range of voltages and currents, and also takes into account the voltage drop on the intergranular interlayer of intergranular potential barrier. Findings – The models and algorithms for calculating the capacitance-voltage characteristics of a single intergranular potential barrier with the use of the most established understanding used at the interpretation of the nonlinear conductivity intergranular barrier are developed. The results of the capacitance-voltage characteristics modeling correspond to the existing understanding of the electrical properties on the ac current varistor ceramics are based on zinc oxide. The model allows to predict the behavior of varistors on the alternating current (voltage). Originality/value – It is established that the recharge of the surface localized states occurs when a voltage is applied to the varistor structure, it can lead to a relaxation decrease in the width of the potential barrier overcome by tunneling electrons in the field emission from the conduction band of the one crystallite in the conduction band of the other crystallite and thus to the current backlog of applied voltage on the phase (i.e. the expression of the negative capacitance effect).
