A pure ferrite and epoxy samples as well as the epoxy/ferrite composites with different 20 wt.%, 30 wt.%, 40 wt.%, and 50 wt.% weight ferrite contents have been prepared by the chemical co-precipitation method. AC-conductivity and dielectric properties such as the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the prepared samples have been studied. The obtained results showed that the samples had a semiconductor behavior. The dielectric constant of the composites has been calculated theoretically using several models. For the composite sample that contains 20 wt.% of ferrites, these models give satisfactory compliance, while for the composite samples with a higher percentage of nanofillers, more than 30 wt.% theoretical results do not coincide with experimental data. The investigated polymer has very low conductivity, so this type of polymer can be useful for high-frequency applications, which can reduce the losses caused by eddy current. Thus, the prepared samples are promising materials for practical use as elements of microwave devices.

Dielectric permittivity has been an important property of binary and mixed semiconductor materials as it is closely related to the studies on polarization and relaxation mechanisms. Therefore, dielectric properties of (CdSe)1-X(ZnS)X mixed semiconductors are studied at different frequencies. The mixed semiconductor samples used in the study are grown by controlled co-precipitation method. From these studies ac conductivity, static and optical dielectric constants, relaxation times and activation energy of dipole relaxation are determined. The variation of dielectric constant with frequency and composition of the sample was explained on the basis of Koops grain boundary mechanism.

Abstract: In this study, Yttrium Iron Garnet (Y3Fe5O12) (YIG) powders were synthesized via co-precipitation method, followed by calcining the precipitates at 1100˚C. The garnets produced were obtained from aqueous iron and yttrium chloride mixtures using different molarities of NaOH (M=2, 3, 4 and 5) at pH=12. The phase formation and crystallography were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), the morphology was investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and the dielectric properties were measured using an impedance analyzer in the frequency range 0.5 - 5MHz, in a temperature range 22 - 350˚C. X-ray diffraction peaks showed the formation of cubic YIG with lattice parameter varying between 12.334 and 12.339 Å. The grain size, measured from TEM images, decreased with the increase of the molarity of NaOH. Plots of the real part of the dielectric constant ε′, the imaginary part of the dielectric constant ε'', loss tangent tan δ and ac conductivity σac as functions of frequency and temperature, respectively, were obtained. It was observed that the highest values of the dielectric constant were obtained in the 2M sample. Keywords: Dielectric properties, Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG), Co-precipitation method, NaOH molarity.

Abstract:Cobalt ferrite nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method and were heat treated at 100 oC, 200 oC, 400 oC and 600 oC for 2 h to increase the particle size. Phase purity of samples was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Scherrer formula calculations showed crystallite size varied from 12 to 24 nm when heated from 100 oC to 600 oC. Transmission electron microscopy reveals a uniform and narrow particle size distribution about 12 nm for as-prepared cobalt ferrite particles. Room temperature saturation magnetization was found to vary from 40.8 to 67.0 emu/g as the particle size increased from12 nm to 24 nm. Increase in saturation magnetization with increase in particle size was attributed to the presence of magnetic inert layer on the surface of nanoparticles. Inert layer thickness calculated at 10 K and 300 K was 6 Å and 11 Å respectively. The dielectric properties ε’, tanδ, Z and θ have been studied as a function of frequency and particles size. For the 12 nm grain size, the dielectric constant is one order higher than that of bulk cobalt ferrite. Increase in the grain size showed an increase in the dielectric constant. The increase in the conductivity with grain size is mainly due to the grain size effects. The present study shows that the dielectric properties can be tailor-made to suit the requirement of a particular application by controlling the grain size.

Background: Hydroxyapatite is similar to bone mineral in chemical composition, has good biocompatibility with host tissue and bone. Objective: This work aims to tailor the mechanical and dielectric properties of hydroxyapatite with zinc sudstitution, to improve wearability of implant and accelerate the healing process. Method: Pure and zinc incorporated hydroxyapatite Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 samples have been successfully prepared by means of the chemical precipitation method. Results: The results showed that hydroxyapatite(Hap) having hexagonal structure was the major phase identified in all the samples. It was found that secondary phase of β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) formed due to addition of Zinc resulting in biphasic structure BCP (Hap + β-TCP). A minor phase of ZnO also formed for higher concentration of Zn (Zn ≥ 2mol%) doping. It was found that the Zn incorporation to Hap enhanced both mechanical and dielectric properties without altering the bioactive properties. The microhardness increased upto 0.87 GPa for Zn concentration equal to 1.5mol%, which is comparable to the human bone ~0.3 - 0.9 GPa. The dielectric properties evaluated in the study showed that 1.5 mol% Zn doped hydroxyapatite had highest dielectric constant. Higher values of dielectric constant at low frequencies signifies its importance in healing processes and bone growth due to polarization of the material under the influence of electric field. Conclusion: Sample Z1.5 having 1.5 mol% Zn doping showed the most optimized properties suitable for bone regeneration applications.

Abstract Progress of 5G telecommunication and mm radar for autopilot, high frequency operation is required. Insulator materials having low loss at high frequency is desired for the applications. We designed the low dielectric constant, and low dielectric loss materials examined molecular structure of the polyimide and found that permittivity 2.6 at 20GHz, dielectric loss 0.002. Furthermore, in consideration of mechanical properties such as the toughness and adhesion to copper from a point of practical use. Dielectric properties largely turned worse when giving photosensitivity. To overcome the poor dielectric properties, we designed the photosensitive system. After all, we successfully obtained 3.5 of dielectric constant and 0.004 of dielectric loss, and 100% of elongation at break. In addition, we offered a B stage sheet as well as varnish. These materials are applicable to re-distribution layer of FO-WLP, Interposer and other RF applications for microelectronics.

The (Ba, Sr)TiO3 (hereafter BST) ceramics are promising candidate for applying in tunable devices. MgO coated BST-Mg2TiO4 (BSTM-MT) composite ceramics were prepared to obtain the low dielectric constant, low dielectric loss, good dielectric constant temperature stability, and high tunability of BST ceramics. The Ba0.55Sr0.40Ca0.05TiO3 nanoparticles were coated with MgO using the precipitation method and then mixed with Mg2TiO4 powders to fabricate BSTM-MT composite ceramics. The morphologies, phases, elements, and dielectric properties of the sintered ceramics were investigated. The core-shell structure of BST powder wrapped with MgO was clearly observed from the TEM image. After sintered at 1100 °C for 2 h, the composite ceramics expressed dense microstructures from SEM images and two main phases BST and Mg2TiO4 were detected in the XRD patterns. The dielectric constant and loss tangent were both reduced after the coating. The reduced dielectric constant and loss tangent of BSTM-MT were 190, 0.0011 (2MHz), respectively. The ceramics exhibited the diffuse phase transition near the Curie temperature and the Curie temperature shifted from 10 °C to 5 °C after the coating. Since the continuous Ti-O bonds were disconnected with the MgO coating, the tunability was reduced to 15.14 % under a DC bias field of 1.1 kV/mm. The optimistic dielectric properties made it useful for the application of tunable capacitors and phase shifters.
