Opal matrix is a regular 3D-packing of spherical particles of amorphous SiO2, forming an ordered system of voids. Opal matrixes with spherical particles of SiO2 diameter d ≈ 260 nm (Δd ≈ 2 %) were synthesized. The frequency dependences of the conductivity, real and imaginary components of the dielectric and magnetic conductivity of nanocomposites containing crystallites 16–65 nm in size of magnetic materials ‒ double phosphates (LiNiPO4, LiCoPO4) and vanadates (GdVO4 and DyVO4) were measured. The dielectric losses of nanocomposites remain low (at a level of ~ 0.06) in the frequency range 107–1010 Hz for nanocomposites with DyVO4 and LiCoPO4. The dielectric loss increases both in the direction of low frequencies (< 106 Hz) and in the direction of THz frequencies.

The aim of the study is to determine the influence of the thermal effect on dielectric losses in grain mass subject to bruising during drying and storage on the example of wheat across a wide external electric field frequency range. The study of the electrophysical characteristics of a dispersed medium comprising mechanically activated wheat grains takes into account the effect of the degree of breakage on the dielectric parameters of the studied medium. The studies were carried out on experimental samples having different degrees of mechanical activation of particles, which ranged in size from from 50 to 1000 μm. Variations in the dielectric loss tangent were studied using the dielectric method across a wide temperature-frequency range. Studies of variations in dielectric properties were carried out for wheat sam-ples subjected to grinding according to the mechanical activation method at temperatures varying from 20°C to 255°C with a constant heating rate of 0.7 deg / min. During the course of the experiment, the frequency of the external electric field was varied from 25 Hz to 1∙106 Hz. Dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangent calculations were carried out using data on electrical capacity and conductivity obtained using an E7-20 immittance meter and a measuring cell in the form of a flat capacitor. An analysis of variations in these dielectric characteristics was also performed. The obtained stable correlation of the dielectric loss tangent with the frequency of external electric impact and the degree of heating of the samples was most pronounced for finely dispersed samples (particle size 50 μm). Variations in dielectric characteristics are most significant when the frequency decreases to 100 Hz and below. The study of variations in the main dielectric parameters can be used to prevent self-heating and ignition of the grain mass during storage, as well as for selecting the most efficient energy-saving drying mode.

The optical constant of bulk metal is used to determine the dispersion of the local field under one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) confinement. 3D confinement, expressed as ε 2 m i c ( ω 3 D ) , corresponds to the dielectric loss spectra of spherical particles with a diameter, d, much less than the wavelength of the beam used to measure the spectrum (d << λ). Excellent agreement with the results of Mie theory and experimental data for solid colloids within alkali halide crystals was observed. The function expressed as ε 2 m i c ( ω 1 D ) allows the measurement of spectral micro-characteristics in the frequency range of the longitudinal collective motion of the free electrons. This corresponds to the spectrum of dielectric losses of bulk plasma oscillations. The function ε 2 m i c ( ω 2 D ) describes the spectra of the dielectric losses of surface plasma oscillations in thin metal films. It is shown that the peak positions of ε 2 m i c ( ω 3 D ) , ε 2 m i c ( ω 2 D ) and ε 2 m i c ( ω 1 D ) spectra for simple metals, viz. alkali metals as well as Al, Be, Mg, Ga, In, Sn and Si, are in agreement with experimental results from electron-energy-loss spectroscopy and various optical techniques.

Методом электрохимического анодного травления получен макропористый кремний с высокоомным мезопористым наноструктурированным «скин»-слоем на поверхности. Измерения частотных зависимостей диэлектрических коэффициентов полученных слоев пористого Si выполнены в частотном интервале 5⋅10 < f < 10 Гц при температуре 295 К и приложенном напряжении 1 В. Выявлен максимум тангенса угла диэлектрических потерь, который, наиболее вероятно, обусловлен преобладанием дипольно-релаксационного механизма поляризации. Обнаружено распределение релаксаторов по временам релаксации, предложена интерпретация полученных результатов с точки зрения строения пористого слоя. Macroporous silicon with a mesoporous nanostructured surface layer on top was obtained by the method of electrochemical anodic etching. The frequency dependences of the dielectric coefficients for porous Si layers were measured in the frequency range 5⋅10 < f < 10 Hz at a temperature of 295 K and an applied voltage of 1 V. A maximum of the dielectric loss tangent is revealed, which is most likely due to the predominance of the dipole relaxation mechanism of polarization. The distribution of relaxers over relaxation times has been. An interpretation of the results obtained from the point of view of the structure of the porous layer is proposed.

Materials with a high dielectric constant (e > 1000) based on complex oxides of spontaneously polarized systems, lithium-conducting systems, and oxides of transition metals were studied. It was shown in dielectric ceramics Ba(Ti,Sn)O3 the absence of significant dispersion of dielectric parameters (e and tg δ) in a wide frequency range from 1 to 105 Hz. The introduction of MnO2 and Al2O3-SiO2-TiO2 improves dielectric parameters and reduces sintering temperature. Obtained ceramic materials are characterized by high dielectric constant values e ~ 13000–16000 and low dielectric losses tg d ~ 0.05–0.06 (at 1 MHz). Synthesized solid solutions of La0.5Li0.5-xNaxTiO3 system, where x = 0 and 0.1, have high values e¢ > 104 at low frequencies (f ≤ 10 Hz). Dielectric properties of these materials are determined by the lithium ions mobility that increases with the rise of sodium content by increasing bottleneck size and decreases by the number of lithium vacancies reduction. The disadvantage of such materials is the decrease in dielectric constant with frequency increase. It was found that the ceramic СaСu3Тi4–xAlxО12-y-0.5xFy with x/y = 0.04/0.04 after sintering for 10 h is characterized by dielectric parameters: e¢ » 71000 (1 kHz) and tg d » 0.047. Introduction of aluminum (x/y = 0.04/0) or fluorine (0/0.08) in CCTO reduces dielectric losses (tg d » 0.044). The advantages of this type of material are a wide frequency range of high dielectric constant and relatively low dielectric loss. Synthesized materials can be used for the development of ceramic capacitors with high characteristics.

This paper presents a study of the structure and dielectric properties of Eu-doped SrBi2Nb2O9 ceramics prepared by co-precipitation route and sintered at 850?C. The materials were examined using XRD and FTIR methods. XRD data indicated the formation of well crystallized structure of the pure and doped SrBi2Nb2O9, without the presence of undesirable phases. FTIR spectra do not bring a significant shift in the band positions. Moreover, the AC conductivity, dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the ceramics were determined through the frequency range [50 kHz-1MHz]. In particular, the dielectric constant (??) and dielectric losses (tan ?) of the SrBi2Nb2O9 and SrBi1.6Eu0.4Nb2O9 ceramics were measured as a function of temperature at various frequencies.

A new technique for measuring elastic wave attenuation in the frequency range of 10–150 kHz consists of measuring low‐frequency waveforms using two cylindrical bars of the same material but of different lengths. The attenuation is obtained through two steps. In the first, the waveform measured within the shorter bar is propagated to the length of the longer bar, and the distortion of the waveform due to the dispersion effect of the cylindrical waveguide is compensated. The second step is the inversion for the attenuation or Q of the bar material by minimizing the difference between the waveform propagated from the shorter bar and the waveform measured within the longer bar. The waveform inversion is performed in the time domain, and the waveforms can be appropriately truncated to avoid multiple reflections due to the finite size of the (shorter) sample, allowing attenuation to be measured at long wavelengths or low frequencies. The frequency range in which this technique operates fills the gap between the resonant bar measurement (∼10 kHz) and ultrasonic measurement (∼100–1000 kHz). By using the technique, attenuation values in a PVC (a highly attenuative) material and in Sierra White granite were measured in the frequency range of 40–140 kHz. The obtained attenuation values for the two materials are found to be reliable and consistent.

A study of the room-temperature ionic liquid N-methyl-N-ethylpyrrolidinium dicyanamide by dielectric relaxation spectroscopy over the frequency range 0.2 GHz ≤ ν ≤ 89 GHz has revealed that, in addition to the already known lower frequency processes, there is a broad featureless dielectric loss at higher frequencies. The latter is probably due to the translational (oscillatory) motions of the dipolar ions of the IL relative to each other, with additional contributions from their fast rotation.

Five SBS modified asphalts and one base asphalt were selected to carry out frequency sweeps over a wider frequency range using the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR). Six asphalt binders were subjected to sinusoidal loading at 30°C-90°C within the linear viscoelastic limits, and master curves of complex modulus (G*) and phase angle (δ) could be constructed by means of the time-temperature superposition principle (TTSP). The results show that the G* values of SBS modified asphalts are significantly greater than those of base asphalt at low frequencies, but are slightly smaller at high frequencies. Compared with the base asphalt, SBS modified asphalts have narrower master curves of complex modulus, and their phase angles are much smaller within the whole frequency range. This indicates that various properties of SBS modified asphalts, such as high-temperature property, low-temperature property, temperature susceptibility and elastic recoverability, are superior to those of the base asphalt. The G* values of the rolling thin-film oven (RTFO) aged asphalt are larger than those of the unaged asphalt in the whole range of frequencies, demonstrating that the anti-rutting performance of asphalt binder is improved after short-term aging.

This paper reports on the preparation and characterization of nickel ferrite (NiFe1.98O4) ceramics doped with Bi2O3 as sintering aid. Focus has been on the effects of concentration of Bi2O3 and sintering temperature on the densification, grain growth, dielectric, and magnetic properties of the NiFe1.98O4 ceramics, with an aim at developing magnetodielectric properties, with almost equal real permeability and permittivity, as well as sufficiently low magnetic and dielectric loss tangents, over 3 to 30 MHz (high frequency or HF band). X-ray diffraction results indicated that there is no obvious reaction between NiFe1.98O4 and Bi2O3, at Bi2O3 levels of up to 7 wt% and temperatures up to 1150 °C. The addition of Bi2O3 facilitated a liquid phase sintering mechanism for the densification of NiFe1.98O4 ceramics. The addition of Bi2O3 not only improved the densification but also promoted the grain growth of NiFe1.98O4 ceramics. To achieve sufficiently low dielectric loss tangent, the concentration of Bi2O3 should not be less than 5 wt%. The low dielectric loss tangents of the samples doped with high concentrations of Bi2O3 can be attributed to the full densification of the ceramics. Magnetic properties of the NiFe1.98O4 ceramics, as a function of sintering temperature and Bi2O3 concentration, can be qualitatively explained by the Globus model. Promising magnetodielectric properties have been obtained in the sample doped with 5% Bi2O3 and sintered at 1050 °C for 2 h. The sample has almost equal values of permeability and permittivity of ∼12, together with low dielectric and magnetic loss tangents, over 3 to 30 MHz. This material might be useful for the miniaturization of HF (3 to 30 MHz) antennas.

Conventionally, the ultimate goal in loudspeaker design has been to obtain a flat frequency response over a specified frequency range. This can be achieved by carefully selecting the main loudspeaker parameters such as the enclosure volume, the cone diameter, the moving mass and the very crucial “force factor”. For loudspeakers in small cabinets the results of this design procedure appear to be quite inefficient, especially at low frequencies. This paper describes a new solution to this problem. It consists of the combination of a highly non-linear preprocessing of the audio signal and the use of a so called low-force-factor loudspeaker. This combination yields a strongly increased efficiency, at least over a limited frequency range, at the cost of a somewhat altered sound quality. An analytically tractable optimality criterion has been defined and has been verified by the design of an experimental loudspeaker. This has a much higher efficiency and a higher sensitivity than current low-frequency loudspeakers, while its cabinet can be much smaller.
