ESR Studies of Fast Electron Irradiated Ferroelectric Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride)

Radiation-induced functionalization of ferroelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride) was studied by ESR spectroscopy. The samples were irradiated in the high vacuum of a Van de Graaff accelerator with 1.0 MeV and 1.5 MeV electrons at room temperature and the decay of free radicals was studied after transferring the samples into the air. The samples exhibit a multicomponent ESR spectrum that can be de...

Effect of electron irradiation on poly„vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene... copolymers

Electrical field-induced strain response of electron-irradiated poly~vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene! copolymer has been studied by a Mach–Zehnder type heterodyne interferometer in the frequency range of 3–9 kHz. The electrostrictive constant is calculated from the strain results, which is of the same order of magnitude as those obtained at 1 Hz by a bimorph-based strain sensor but at muc...

MAGNETISATION AND ELECTRON SPIN RESONANCE STUDIES OF TETRAHEDRAL AMORPHOUS CARBON

The magnetisation and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum of two specimens of tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C), deposited from a filtered cathodic arc, were measured over a wide temperature range. The magnetisation was found to consist of superparamagnetic, paramagnetic and diamagnetic contributions. The superparamagnetic contribution resembled that recently found in carbon prepared from ...
