Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-based ceramics were thermally annealed at 700–900 °C for 4 h. Both the relative dielectric constant and dissipation factor in the vicinity of transition temperature were increased when the specimens were thermally annealed at 700–900 °C, but the diffusion factor was decreased. After thermal annealing, the maximum dielectric constant Km was increased from about 11,000 to 26,000. These phenomena can be related to the domain wall motion and the elimination of internal stress.

Sintered compacts of nano-sized and micron-sized BaTiO3 show sharp ferroelectric transition and high dielectric constant at specific compositions. The sintered compacts with 1 wt% nano-BaTiO3 show a maximum dielectric constant of 1680. At the transition temperature (Tc) there are two maxima at 0.5 and 2 wt%. The variation in the dielectric constant at Tc is also reflected in the behavior of the ferroelectric transition as studied by differential scanning calorimetry. This interesting oscillatory variation of the dielectric constant and dielectric loss with increase in the amount of nanoparticles in the sintered compacts is observed for the first time. The variation of the dielectric properties and the ferroelectric transition of the sintered compacts could be related to subtle changes in the microstructure.

The microstructure and dielectric properties of ferroelectric solutions which is formulated with (1-x)[0.9Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.1PbTiO3]-x mol% SrTiO3(x=0, 1, 3 and 5) have been investigated. The ceramics was fabricated by a modified columbite route sintered at 1200 °C. The effects of dopants on microstructure, maximum dielectric constant (εm) and diffuseness of the phase transition, etc. have been studied. It is found that the maximum permittivity (εm) increases to 24968 for the ST-doped (1 mol %) sample, subsequently decreases with ST addition and its corresponding phase-transition-temperature (Tm) shifts to the lower temperature. The variation of εmis caused by the decrease of polar nano-region size, increase of the fluctuation of the component and the increase of the effective spontaneous polarization. The enhancement of relaxor behavior in the PMN-PT sample is explained by the decrease of FE/AFE coupling.

The Bi0.5(Na1-xKx)0.5-yBaTiO3(BNK-BT) lead-free ceramics have been prepared by the solild reactive sintering method. XRD patterns show the BNK-BT ceramics had a perovskite structure. Piezoelectric and dielectric properties of the ceramics also have been studied. The results show that the samples had the best piezoelectric and dielectric properties when x=0.20, y=0.10. And the maximum of d33is 149 pC/N, while the relative dielectric constant is 1087.

The variations of dielectric constant and the amplitude of reflected EM wave of concrete during the first 3 days are measured with Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) at 20 oC. The amplitude decreases sharply after mixing with water, and then increases till a stabilized stage, followed by a gradual decline. The relative dielectric constant decreases with increasing hydrating time. The results show that the dielectric properties of concrete can be used as an effective way of studying the kinetics of concrete setting and hardening process at early ages.

ABSTRACTThe bismaleimide resin Matrimid 5292A (I) was cocured with an allylnadic-imide resin (EP 433) which contained a long aliphatic chain as backbone (II). Water uptake, swelling, and the dielectric properties (up to 300 MHz) were studied in cast plates. The dielectric constant varied from 5.4 in (I) to 3.2 in (II) at water saturation, compared to 3.1 in (I) to 2.7 in (II) in the dry state. The glass transition temperature stayed above 200 °C at less than 80 mol% of (II).

Polymer ferroelectric films were prepared by dispersing TGS powder in polystyrene. Permittivity versus temperature plots exhibit a peak at around the transition temperature of TGS. The peak gets suppressed with increasing frequency and the trend continues up to microwave frequencies. We observed that the dielectric constant of films at microwave frequency stays close to the dielectric constant of polystyrene. The domain structure of TGS crystals essentially seems to affect their dielectric properties. Single domain films exhibit a higher spontaneous polarization and a higher coercive field.

Since the characteristics of the electrode made from Ag paste greatly affect the dielectric properties of (Nb, Ba) doped TiO2 ceramics, the processing condition, i.e., baking temperature, was investigated. Low melting glass binder contained in Ag paste reacted with TiO2 ceramics to form an interface layer between Ag electrode and TiO2 ceramics during baking. The interface layer was identified as Bi2Ti2O7 by x-ray diffraction (XRD), and the thickness of the Bi2Ti2O7 layer was estimated from line profiles of EPMA and dielectric properties. The interface layers were found to increase with baking temperature. Increased baking temperature lowered the relative dielectric constant and dielectric dissipation factor of TiO2 ceramics, while it raised the resistivity. Controlling the baking condition of the Ag paste electrode on TiO2 ceramics resulted in reasonably good dielectric properties and excellent temperature stability.

Effect of annealing temperature on the dielectric properties of Bi1.5Zn1.0Nb1.5O7 films prepared on (111)Pt//(001)Al2O3 and (111)Pt/fused silica substrates by MOCVD was investigated. The tunability and the inverse of the dielectric loss [1/ (tan )] increased with increasing annealing temperature. Relative dielectric constant and temperature coefficient of the capacitance (TCC) increased with the crystallinity of the films. On the other hand, (1/tan ) was independent of the crystallinity of the films, but was dramatically increased by the annealing.

ABSTRACTDielectric properties and leakage current characteristics of the Al2O3 thin films, deposited by reactive sputtering at room temperature, have been investigated with variations of the O2 content in the sputtering gas and the film thickness. The Al2O3 films of 10-300 nm thickness were amorphous without depending on the O2 contents of 25-75% in the sputtering gas. Maximum dielectric constant was obtained for the Al2O3 film deposited with the sputtering gas of 50% O2 content. With reduction of the film thickness from 300 nm to 10 nm, dielectric constant decreased from 9.04 to 3.71 and tangent loss increased from 0.0035 to 0.0594, respectively. When the O2 content in the sputtering gas was higher than 50%, the Al2O3 films exhibited no shift of the flatband voltage in C-V curves. The leakage current density increased with increasing the film thickness, and the Al2O3 films thinner than 100 nm exhibited the leakage current densities lower than 10−6 A/cm up to 650 kV/cm.
