Specific heat and electrical conductivity of deuterated triglycine selenate single crystals

Measurements of the specific heat were carried out on deuterated trigylcine selenate (DTGSe) single crystals to clarify its critical nature near the ferroelectric transition point (T_c ). The results obtained have indicated that DTGSe crystals deuterated by 90% exhibit a first-order phase transition.

This paper presents also the electrical conductivity (δ) of DTGSe crystals. The deuterium substitution induces an increase in the Curie point T_c , and a decrease in the conductivity in the para- and ferroelectric phases accompanied by an increase in the activation energy (W) in both phases.

本文通过提出电势影响因子的概念描述了尘埃粒子与背景等离子体之间的电势差对等离子体电导率的影响. 电势影响因子与尘埃粒子的电荷数、数密度、半径以及背景等离子体电子数密度成正比, 而与背景等离子体电子温度成反比. 在考虑尘埃粒子电势影响下, 推导和完善了尘埃等离子体的复电导率模型. 选取火箭喷焰为典型实例, 分析比较了微波和近红外波段范围内, 考虑和不考虑电势差影响两种情况下的复电导率. 结果表明, 在给定的尘埃等离子体参数条件下, 随着入射电磁波频率的增大, 电势差对复电导率的影响在减小, 当入射频率增加至给定的近红外区域时, 电势差对复电导率虚部的影响可以忽略.

Transport in dispersed ionic conductors: Effect of insulating particle size

Dispersed ionic conductors are random mixtures of a solid salt, e.g. AgI, LiI, with fine particles of an insulating second phase, like Al₂O₃ or SiO₂. These composites can show a dramatic increase in ionic conductivity compared to the pure homogeneous system. Generally, this observation is attributed to an increased conductivity along the internal interface between the conducting salt and the insulating material. In this work a three-component random resistor network (RRN) model for dispersed ionic conductors is reviewed. In the model, the ionic conductor is represented by normally conducting bonds, the insulating material by non-conducting bonds and the interface between the two phases by highly conducting bonds. A special feature of the model is the existence of two critical concentrations of the insulating phase, p′_c and p″_c , for interface percolation and bulk conduction, respectively, where critical transport properties corresponding to conductor/superconductor and conductor/insulator networks are predicted. The model describes satisfactorily the dependence on composition of the conductivity and activation energy of dispersed ionic conductors. Furthermore, the observed effect on the conductivity of the size of dispersed particles can be described qualitatively well by a generalized version of the RRN model, which in addition predicts a sensitive dependence of the critical thresholds on particle size. Non-universality features in the critical exponents for the conductivity are also discussed within a continuum percolation analog of the model.

Increased surface roughness by oxygen plasma treatment of graphite/polymer composite

The technology of selective plasma etching was applied to increase the surface roughness of graphite/polymer composite. Etching was performed with a low pressure weakly ionised oxygen plasma created with a RF generator of the output power of 200 W and frequency of 27.12 MHz. The density of charged particles, density of neutral oxygen atoms and the electron temperature was about 1×10¹⁶ m⁻³, 4×10²¹ m⁻³, and 5 eV, respectively. The effects of plasma treatment were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), electron microprobe (EMPA) and Talysurf. It was found that the surface roughness was increased by approximately 15 times, from a virgin sample at the roughness of R_a=0.27 μm to a very rough surface with R_a=4 μm. The roughness increased with increasing plasma exposure time. The EMPA results showed that the amount of sulphur in the surface layer decreased with increasing etching time indicating that PPS polymer was the material etched preferentially.     

Effect of radiation on conductivity of solid PVA–KOH–PC composite polymer electrolytes

The aim of this work is to enhance the room temperature conductivity of solid alkaline composite polymer electrolytes (ACPEs) based on polyvinyl alcohol/potassium hydroxide/propylene carbonate (PVA–KOH–PC) composites by cross-linking the PVA and bond scission of the PC by γ-radiation. The ACPEs were prepared by solvent-casting technique and irradiated with doses up to 200 kGy at room temperature. The microstructure of the ACPEs was measured using XRD spectrometer, and the results show the structural change from semicrystalline to amorphous, indicating that the cross-linking has been achieved at higher doses. It was found that the PKOH composite at 40 wt% KOH and PPC composite at 60 wt% PC show higher conductivities. The conductivity of the PKPC composites is dominated by dc conductivity at higher frequencies and that PC with 60 wt% has the highest conductivity at a dose of 200 kGy.Paper presented at the International Conference on Functional Materials and Devices 2005, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, June 6–8, 2005.

Modelling the DC electrical conductivity of polymer/carbon black composites

Several DC electrical conductivity models have been proposed to explain the properties of composite materials. In particular, generalized effective medium model was used, but, in many cases, the obtained parameters do not fit accurately the data. In this paper, we extended the study to Mamunya model, with adjustable parameters. Using different carbon black nanocomposites, we obtained a good agreement with the experimental results, but only for concentrations above the percolation critical concentration. Below this point, the fit is not accurate.     

Influence of graphite size on the synthesis and reduction of graphite oxides

We investigated the influence of the precursor, graphite, size on the synthesis and reduction of graphite oxide. Three precursors of graphite with different size were used to synthesize the graphite oxide which was consecutively reduced by hydrazine of different concentration ratios. Size dependent effect on the reduction of the graphite oxide was found, and the graphite oxide of the smallest size provided the best reduction result. Electrochemical properties of the reduced graphene oxide were investigated in both of the base and acid electrolytes, finding the reduced graphene oxide of the smallest size gives the best electrochemical performance due to the high reduction. Therefore, the precursor size is a very important factor in the synthesis and reduction of graphite oxide, affecting the electrochemical performance considerably for the energy storage applications.

Synthesis and electrical conductivity of nanocrystalline tetragonal FeS

A convenient method for synthesis of tetragonal FeS using iron powder as iron source, is reported. Nanocrystalline tetragonal FeS samples were successfully synthesized by reacting metallic iron powder with sodium sulfide in acetate buffer solution. The obtained sample is single-phase tetragonal FeS with lattice parameters a = 0.3767 nm and c = 0.5037 nm, as revealed by X-ray diffraction. The sample consists of fiat nanosheets with lateral dimensions from 20 nm up to 200 nm and average thickness of about 20 nm. We found that tetragonal FeS is a fairly good conductor from the electrical resistivity measurement on a pellet of the nanosheets. The temperature dependence of conductivity of the pellet was well fitted using an empirical equation wherein the effect of different grain boundaries was taken into consideration. This study provides a convenient, economic way to synthesize tetragonal FeS in a large scale and reports the first electrical conductivity data for tetragonal FeS down to liquid helium temperature.

Influence of the electrical field applied during thermal cycling on the conductivity of LLDPE/CNT composites

The effect of the electrical field on the conductivity of linear low-density polyethylene/carbon nanotubes/ (LLDPE/CNT) composites during temperature cycling has been investigated. Under applied voltage a positive resistivity temperature coefficient was observed during heating already at low (2–3 wt%) CNT content, followed by a large negative temperature coefficient during cooling whose value depends on the applied voltage. The resistivity values after thermal cycling were markedly lower, while they slightly increased in the absence of an electrical field. The effects of thermal cycling on structural and physical properties of the composites have been evaluated by X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry.     

Effect of molecular weight on conductivity of polymer electrolytes

The ionic conductivity, σ, of mixtures of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfone)imide (LiTFSI) was measured as a function of molecular weight of the PEO chains, M, over the range 0.2-5000 kg/mol. Our data are consistent with an expression σ = σ₀ + K/M proposed by Shi and Vincent [Solid State Ionics 60 (1993)] where σ₀ and K are exponential and linear functions of inverse temperature respectively. Explicit expressions for σ₀ and K are provided.     

Predicting the viscosity and electrical conductivity of ionic liquids on the basis of theoretically calculated ionic volumes

Selected physical properties of the ionic liquids might be quantitatively predicted based on the volumes of the ions these systems are composed of. It is demonstrated that the ionic volumes calculated using relatively simple theoretical quantum chemistry methods can be utilised to estimate the viscosities and electrical conductivities of various commonly used ionic liquids. The fitting formulas of the exponential form are offered and their predictive usefulness is verified. The quality of such predictions is discussed on the basis of several ionic liquids involving [Tf₂N]^? and [BF₄]^? anions and 16 various cations. The dependence of the viscosity and electrical conductivity of the ionic liquids on the temperature is also investigated and the temperature-dependent equations are derived and compared to the experimentally measured values.
