Enhanced ferroelectric properties of Ce-substituted BiFeO<Subscript>3</Subscript> thin films prepared by sol–gel process

Ce-substituted BiFeO₃ film (BCFO film) have been prepared by sol–gel process on F doped SnO₂ (FTO)/glass substrates. The effects of Ce substitution on the structural and electrical properties have been reported. X-ray diffraction data confirmed the R3c structure with the elimination of all secondary phases. We observed an increase in the remnant polarization (Pr) with Ce substitution and obtained a maximum value of ∼84 μC/cm² in 5% Ce-substituted film. The dielectric constant of the films was increased from 280 to about 420 for the BiFeO₃ film and 5% Ce-substituted BCFO film, respectively and the films showed excellent dielectric loss behavior. Moreover, the leakage current was substantially reduced by the Ce substitution.     

Anchoring of sulfur‐containing alkylphosphonic and semifluorinated alkylphosphonic molecules on a polycrystalline aluminum substrate

Self‐assembly on a polycrystalline aluminum substrate of two sulfur‐containing alkylphosphonic acids, CH₃? (CH₂)₁₁? S? (CH₂)₂? PO(OH)₂, and CF₃? (CF₂)₇? (CH₂)₂? S? (CH₂)₂? PO(OH)₂, has been compared with CH₃? (CH₂)₁₅? PO(OH)₂. The reaction of the phosphonic head groups with the hydroxyls at the alumina surface to form phosphonates was studied with X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and polarization modulation infrared reflection‐absorption spectroscopy (PM‐IRRAS). Barrier effects of the resulting layers was assessed by electrochemical polarization curves. With the conditions used in the present work for the self‐assembly reaction, it appears that the sulfur‐containing molecules do not perform as well as CH₃? (CH₂)₁₅? PO(OH)₂ in terms of film quality. Questions are raised about the possibility that the sulfur‐containing molecules could undergo cleavage during surface modification. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Dielectric constants of fluid mixtures over a wide range of temperature and density

A new expression is presented for estimating the dielectric constant of a fluid mixture as a function of temperature, density and composition. The estimated dielectric constants (and their derivatives) are required for phase-equilibrium calculations, based on an equation of state, for systems containing electrolytes and nonelectrolytes. The new expression holds for the entire range of fluid densities, from zero to liquid-like densities. Mixing of components is performed on a volume-fraction basis at constant temperature and constant reduced density. For polar components where data are not available at the temperature and/or reduced density of interest, the well-characterized behavior of water is used to extrapolate the available pure-component data. The importance of using the correct density of the mixture is shown. Using one adjustable parameter for each nonideal binary subsystem, predicted results can be significantly improved.     

Preparation and dielectric properties of oxide added NaCl-KCl polycrystals

Pure and ZnO and CdO added (separately) polycrystals of NaCl, KCl and (NaCl)_0.5(KCl)_0.5 were prepared by the melt method. Density, atomic absorption spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction measurements indicate that the ZnO and CdO have entered into the lattices of alkali halide crystals. The dielectric measurements indicate that the dielectric parameters increase with the increase in temperature. Also, the dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor values decreased whereas the electrical conductivities increased with the increase in frequency of the AC applied. Significant changes have been observed with the dielectric parameters caused by ZnO and CdO additions. Also, the depth profile study was carried out on CdO added crystals which indicates that the dopant addition creates different layers along the crystal with increase of dopant content from top to bottom.     

Local modes of molecular mobility in comb-shaped liquid crystalline ionomers containing alkaline metal ions

Molecular mobility of the comb-shaped copolymer poly(4-[6-(acryloyloxy)hexyloxy]benzoic acid-co-butyl acrylate) and Li- and Rb-containing LC ionomers based on this polymer was studied at low temperatures by the methods of dielectric spectroscopy and thermally stimulated depolarization current. The above copolymers are shown to experience the γ₂, γ₁, and β-processes, which are related by the reorientation of the end СООН groups, by the mobility of a spacer, and by the reorientation of mesogenic fragments (dimers of oxybenzoic acids) with respect to a long axis, respectively. The formation of multiplet structures in ionomers leads to a suppression of the intensity of the β-process that relates with a partial breakdown of hydrogen-bonded dimmers and with a decrease of their molecular mobility.     

Dielectric relaxation of Tripropylene glycol–water mixture using time domain reflectometry

The complex permittivity spectra of tripropylene glycol and water solutions have been obtained by time domain reflectometry (TDR) technique in the frequency range from 10 MHz to 30 GHz and the temperature range 20°C–05°C. The dielectric relaxation parameters such as static dielectric constant and relaxation time were obtained by using the non-linear least square fit method. The intermolecular hydrogen bonding of tripropylene glycol–water has been discussed using the Kirkwood correlation factor and thermodynamic parameters. The activation energy decreases with increase in water content in the mixture as expected in the Arrhenius behaviour. The dielectric constant for mixtures has been fitted to the Bruggeman mixture formula in the non-linear case.     

The influence of gamma radiation on the dielectric relaxation behaviour of isotactic polypropylene: The α relaxation

The high-temperature α relaxation in gamma irradiated isotactic polypropylene (iPP) was studied over the temperature (298-406 K), frequency (10³-10⁶ Hz) and absorbed dose (0-700 kGy) ranges by means of dielectric spectroscopy. The multiple α relaxation was resolved from the β relaxation by curve fitting and its parameters were determined. Its position, intensity and activation energy were found to be strongly dependent on the changes in the structural and morphological parameters attributed to the exposure of the samples to radiation. Wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) was used to investigate radiation-induced changes in the crystalline structure and degree of crystallinity, since this relaxation is connected with the crystal phase. Infrared (IR) spectroscopy and gel measurements were used to determine the changes in the oxidative degradation and the degree of network formation, respectively; the polar (carbonyl and/or hydroperoxide) groups that were introduced by irradiation were considered as tracer groups. Conclusions derived according to different methods were compared. The results reveal uncommon α relaxation behaviour with gamma radiation and confirm the multiple nature of this process, together with high dielectric and/or relaxation sensitivity of iPP to the radiation-induced changes.     

Novel soluble thermally stable silane-containing aromatic polyimides with reduced dielectric constant

Bis(p-aminophenoxy)diphenylsilane (BPS), bis(m-aminophenoxy)diphenylsilane (BMS) and bis(5-amino-1-naphthoxy)diphenylsilane (BAS) as three silane-diamines were prepared by the reactions of 4-aminophenol, 3-aminophenol, and 5-amino-1-naphthol respectively, with dichlorodiphenylsilane in the presence of triethylamine. The related silane-containing polyimides were prepared by two-step polycondensation reactions of these diamines with three different aromatic dianhydrides. All the polymers were characterized and their physical and thermal properties were studied. The polymers showed high thermal stability while their solubility was greatly increased in polar aprotic solvents. Wide angle X-ray diffraction showed that all the polyimides were almost amorphous. Also their dielectric constants were decreased due to the incorporation of softening and low-polarizing siloxane units into the polymer backbone.
