Tunable grating with active feedback

Herbert Shea, Samuel Rosset

We report on the use of capacitive self-sensing to operate a DEA-based tunable grating in closed-loop mode. Due to their large strain capabilities, DEAs are key candidates for tunable optics applications. However, the viscoelasticity of elastomers is detri ...

Can a Metal Surface Repel Electric Charges?

Primoz Rebernik Ribic

We show that the interaction between a surface and a charge packet moving parallel to it can become repulsive above a critical relativistic energy. We find that this is true for a lossless dielectric surface and also for a Drude metallic surface-in apparen ...

Unusual dielectric behavior and domain structure in rhombohedral phase of BaTiO3 single crystals

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Dragan Damjanovic

It was noticed long time ago that the dielectric permittivity of BaTiO3 single crystals in the rhombohedral phase varies from observation to observation, but the microstructure mechanism behind this phenomenon remained unclear. We show that the variations ...

Broadband Dielectric Response in Hard and Soft PZT

Li Jin

Lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr1-xTix)O3 or PZT) ferroelectric ceramics have been widely used in transducers, actuators, and sensors, since they posses high dielectric and piezoelectric properties with a relatively high temperature of operation. Commerciall ...

Integrated modelling of Ion Cyclotron Resonant Heating in toroidal system

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Stephan Brunner, Martin Jucker, Nicolas Mellet

An integrated model capable of self-consistent Ion Cyclotron Resonant Heating (ICRH) simulations has been developed. This model includes both full shaping and pressure effects, warm contributions to the dielectric tensor, pressure anisotropy and finite orb ...

Strong ferroelectric domain-wall pinning in BiFeO3 ceramics

Nava Setter, Dragan Damjanovic, Marija Kosec

We have studied the polarization-electric-field hysteresis, the dielectric permittivity dispersion, the piezoelectric properties, the electric-field-induced strain, and the interrelations between these properties for bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) ceramics. The ...

Domain wall contributions in Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 ceramics at morphotropic phase boundary: A study of dielectric dispersion

Dragan Damjanovic, Li Jin, Viktor Porokhonskyy

The dielectric properties of undoped, Nb-, and Fe-doped Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 ceramics with composition near morphotropic phase boundary were investigated in the frequency range from 1 MHz to 20.2 GHz at room temperature. Temperature dependences of dielectric permit ...

Magnetoresistance measurement of tailored Permalloy nanocontacts

Arndt Christian von Bieren

We study the evolution of the magnetoresistance (MR) in Permalloy nanocontacts prepared by controlled low-temperature UHV electromigration in nanoring segment structures with constrictions. The ring geometry allows for the controlled and reproducible posit ...

An evidence that the dielectric aging in the polydomain Pb(Zr0.45Ti0.55)O-3 thin films is controlled by progressive pinning of 180 degrees domain walls is presented. To provide such a conclusion, we use a general method, which is based on the study of the ...

The availability of reliable constitutive models linking he bulk electric properties of porous media to their inner structure is a key requirement for useful quantitative applications of noninvasive methods. This study focuses on the use of dielectric meas ...
