This study involves an investigation to ascertain the effect of ZnO nano inclusion on the evolution and dielectric properties of ZnO-PCL nanocomposites. The effect of the nano inclusion towards attenuation of the composites is also reported. In this study, ZnO nano particles and polycaprolactone (PCL) were blended to form composites using melt blending technique. The composites were employed to study the effect of nano inclusion on the materials. Further analysis was done using FTIR to investigate the band positions and absorption peak of the prepared samples, SEM and EDX for the morphology and elemental composition of samples. The FTIR spectra indicated a strong interaction at the interface of the ZnO nano particles with the polymer matrix. Amongst other findings, it was confirmed that the dielectric constant increases as the ZnO nano content increases where the average values for the different compositions are 4.39, 4.14, 3.62, 3.31 and 3.21 from highest to lowest filler percentage respectively. The high dielectric properties of the composites makes it suitable for small microwave absorption devices

The utilization of Bismuth Titanate (BiT) as a ceramic material on an antenna has been investigated. The BiT ceramic material is of interest for a range of Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) IEEE 802.11 b/g and Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) IEEE 802.16 application, which covers the range of 2.3 GHz to 2.5 GHz. The BiT ceramic material had been tested to own a high dielectric constant of εr= 15 that is able to miniaturize an antenna. There is a high demand nowadays on the miniature antenna for smaller devices. An experimental prototype at WiMAX/WLAN range was built and measured on its dielectric properties, especially the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the prototype material.

A novel all-polymeric material with high dielectric constant (k) has been developed by blending poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) with polyamide-6 (PA6). The dependence of the dielectric properties on frequency and polymer volume fraction was investigated. When the volume fraction of PA6 is 20%, the dielectric property is better than others. The SEM investigations suggest that the enhanced dielectric behavior originates from significant interfacial interactions of polymer-polymer. The XRD demonstrate that the PA6 and PVDF affect the crystalline behavior of each component. Furthermore, the stable dielectric constants of the blends could be tuned by adjusting the content of the polymers. The created high-k all-polymeric blends represent a novel type of material that are simple technology and easy to process, and is of relatively high dielectric constant, applications as flexible electronics.

CaCu3Ti4O12 ceramics doped with 0-2.0 wt% Li2CO3 were prepared by the solid-state reaction, and their electric and dielectric properties were investigated. It is found that these ceramics had the properties of high dielectric constant and comparatively low dielectric loss. At the doping amount of 0.5 wt%, the dielectric constant is kept to be 105 with weak frequency dependence below 105 Hz, and its loss tangent (tan δ) is suppressed below 0.1 between 300 Hz-5 kHz (with the minimum value of 0.06 at 1 kHz from 218 K to 338 K). The impedance spectroscopy analysis confirms that the decrease of dielectric loss is mainly due to the increase of resistance in the grain boundary, which may be related to the influence of Ti4O7 secondary phase. Our result indicates that doping Li2CO3 is an efficient method to optimize the dielectric properties of CaCu3Ti4O12.

The CaCu3Ti4O12(CCTO) has the advantage for the various applications especially for capacitive elements in microelectronic devices over the ferroelectric materials including BaTiO3. CCTO is a ceramic compound with a high dielectric constant but it has a high loss tangent at room temperature. In this work, the Influences of PtO2doping on the dielectric properties of CaCu3Ti4O12(CCTO) ceramics were investigate. The ceramics CCTO and PtO2doping CCTO were studied by X- ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy. The dielectric properties have been measured as a function of temperature and frequency range 0.1 - 500 kHz. The XRD shows the CCTO structure does not changes after doping with platinum. The results show that PtO2doped can reduce the mean grain sizes of CCTO, but the dielectric constant still remained a height. The samples of 2.0 mol% Pt-doped have exhibited high dielectric constant of about 22,000 and the loss tangent about 0.7 at room temperature and frequency at 10 kHz. The reduced of the loss tangent could be interpreted with the internal barrier layer capacitor model (IBLC)

ABSTRACTA preliminary experiment was conducted to prepare semiconducting strontium titanate-based internal barrier layer capacitors with ferroelectric Pb(Fe, W)O3 forming insulating layers along the grain boundaries. Processing, microstructure and the dielectric properties of this new type of BL capacitors are described. The idea to obtain this type of BL capacitors with a very high dielectric constant may be realized when the ferroelectric materials can uniformly be diffused along the grain boundaries by using a more sophisticated processing of the second firing.
