The phase detection in cholesteryl oleyl carbonate was studied over a broad temperature range by dielectric spectroscopy. Tests were conducted in the static and the low frequency ionic regions. They point to the possibility of relatively simple detection of phase transition. Some manifestations of pretransitional behaviours were also found. - Pacs: 64.70Md, 77.22Ch, 64.30+t

(ZnO)30(MgO)x(P2O5)70-x glasses of the composition x = 5, 8 and 13 mol % have been prepared by melt quenching technique. The dielectric permittivity (89) and loss factor (8:) were measured in the frequency range from 0.01 Hz to 1 MHz and in the temperature range 303 to 573 K . From the results there are evidence of dipolar relaxation occurring between 103 – 106 Hz while at low frequency the spectrum is dominated by dc conduction which manifested by the 1/@ slope of loss factor plot. Value of the relaxing frequency (@p) plotted against 1/T shows one electrical transportation mechanism. The empirical data was sufficiently fitted by using Harviliak-Negami equation.

AbstractEpitaxial heterostructures (001)(Y,Nd)Ba2Cu3O7-δ∥(100)SrTiO3∥(001)(Nd,Y)Ba2Cu3O7-δ,(100)SrRuO3∥(100)Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3∥(100)SrRuO3, (100)SrRuO3∥(100)SrTiO3∥(100)SrRuO3 and (100)SrTiO3∥(001)YBa2Cu3O7-δ have been grown by laser ablation. There was only a small difference of the dielectric permittivity, in the temperature range 180-300K, between a bulk single crystal and an epitaxial (100)SrTiO3 layer inserted between either high-Tc superconducting or SrRuO3 electrodes. At T<1 50K, on the other hand, the response of the dielectric permittivity of the SrTiO3 layer on temperature or electric field depended to a large extent upon the materials used as bottom and top electrodes in the heterostructures. The temperature dependence of the dielectric permittivity for the SrTiO3 layer in (100)SrRuO3∥(100)SrTiO3∥(100)SrRuO3 was well extrapolated by a Curie-Weiss relation in the range of T=80-300K, with about the same Curie constant (C0=7.5 × 104 K) and Curie temperature (TCurie=21K) as in a bulk single crystal. At temperatures higher the phase transition point (65 K), the electric field response of the permittivity of the SrTiO3 layer between high-TC superconducting or metallic oxide electrodes was well extrapolated by the same relation used for a bulk single crystal. The smallest loss factor, tanδ, was measured for the capacitance (100)SrRuO3∥(100)SrTiO3∥(100)SrRuO3 (T ≈ 50-300K, f=100kHz). The measured conductance G for the SrTiO3 layer in the (001)(Y,Nd)Ba2Cu3O7-δ heterostructure fitted well the relation InG∼-(ED/kT), with ED=0.08-0.09 eV in a temperature range close to 300K. Pronounced hysteresis was observed in the temperature dependence of the dielectric permittivity for the (100)Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3 layer at temperatures close to the phase transition point, like in the case of a bulk single crystal. The permittivity of the (100)Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3 layer decreased more than 50% when an electric field of 2.5×106V/m (T ≈ 300K, f=100 kHz ) was applied.

Abstract In this work, low-frequency characteristics of wetted nanoporous silicate materials were measured, as well as the specimen’s own low-frequency electric fluctuations at the frequencies of 1…100 Hz. The measurements at low frequencies were conducted at different voltages of the probing signal. A capacity cell was used in making the measurements. In the experiments, at the temperatures below –25…–30 °C, non-linearity of the medium was discovered. The experiments on the study of the specimen’s own electric fluctuations at these temperatures revealed their essential increase. These temperatures are below the point of phase transition of supercooled water to recently discovered ferroelectric ice 0. Based on the measurements made, a conclusion was made regarding formation of this modification of ice in the nanosize pores of the wetted materials under study. Ice 0 is a ferroelectric; therefore, its formation from deeply supercooled water may have a significant impact on the electric parameters of wetted bodies at the temperatures below –23 °C. At the interface of such ice with another dielectric, a thin layer with practically metallic conductivity emerges. Such a layer influences not only the non-linear dependence of dielectric permittivity on the electric field but also increases attenuation of electromagnetic radiation in a medium.

The influence of the size effect on the features of ADP-KDP-porous glasses composites was studied. The dielectric permittivity results of mixed ADP and KDP embedded into porous glasses with different average pore sizes in a wide temperature range are presented. The data obtained indicate that pore size affects the nature of the dielectric anomaly in the vicinity of phase transition regions.

We study spatially inhomogeneous states that occur as precursors of marten-sitic/ferroelastic transitions. We will show that cross-hatched modulations (tweed patterns)arise at temperatures above the phase transition in the limit of high elastic anisotropy or lowdisorder while a nano-cluster phase-separated state occurs at low anisotropy or high disorder.In the latter case, nanoscale inhomogeneities give rise to glassy behaviour while the structuraltransition is inhibited. Interestingly, in this case the ferroelastic system also displays a largethermo-mechanical response so that the low symmetry structure can be easily induced by theapplication of relatively small stresses within a broad temperature range.

AbstractMixture of two liquid crystalline components exhibits the antiferroelectric phase in a broad temperature range at room temperatures, though the two components separately do not show an antiferroelectric phase in a temperature range applied. The dielectric spectroscopy technique combined with measurements of the selective light reflection was used for identification and characterization of the phases and subphases existing in the mixture. In the SmC*A phase, the low frequency mode characteristic of antiferroelectric phase has been detected. In the broad temperature range between SmC*A and SmA* phases, no relaxation mode has been detected. The soft mode registered near the phase transition to SmA* phase follows the Curie-Weiss law.
