Thermal strain sensitivity of the dielectric property was investigated for (111)-textured polycrystalline Bi-Zn-Nb-O films. Cubic pyrochlore films with similar crystallinity and the degree of the orientation were obtained on various substrates, and their 1 ...
We develop a theory for investigating atomic-scale dielectric permittivity profiles across interfaces between insulators. A local susceptibility chi(x;omega) is introduced to describe variations of the dielectric response over length scales of the order of ...
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 ...
BaxSr1-xTiO3 (BST) and its composite films have been studied for the improvement of the tunable performances via nano-structual control. The strong correlation between strain and tunability similar to that between strain and permittivity was confirmed in t ...
We have used microwave dielec. relaxation spectroscopy to study the picosecond dynamics of five low-viscosity, highly conductive room temp. ionic liqs. based on 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium cations paired with the bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)imide anion. ...
Pb(Zr-x,Ti1-x)O-3 thin films of homogeneous composition were synthesized by means of a modified sol-gel route on Pt(111)/TiOx/SiO2/Si substrates. The usually observed gradient in B-site composition could be reduced from +/- 12 to +/- 12.5 at% amplitude in ...
Impedance spectroscopy is a powerful tool for label-free analysis and characterisation of living cells. In this work, we achieved the detection of Babesia bovis infected red blood cells using impedance spectroscopy on a microfabricated flow cytometer. The ...
We present a numerical study of the tunability properties of a plasmonic subwavelength particle deposited on a metallic slab. The particle is composed of a metallic part, supporting a localized plasmon mode, separated from the slab by a dielectric spacer. ...
The preparation and dielectric properties of potassium niobate tantalate (KTN) have been investigated with the aim of exploring the material's potential for ferroelectric tunable applications. The samples were prepared both by conventional sintering in air ...
While in the paralectric phase of ferroelectrics, and in centrosymmetric materials in general, the dielectric tunability is symmetrical for positive and negative electric bias fields, in noncentrosymmetric materials this is not the case. By using the therm ...
