Non-destructive evaluation of ceramic porosity using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy

چکیده
Dielectric constants of Al2O3 (alumina) ceramic samples have been measured with non-destructive terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. Using an effective medium approximation, we demonstrated that the relative permittivity can be used to evaluate porous alumina samples, porosity fractions ranging from 0% 20% per volume. This result makes it possible control sample porosity, a key material parameter related mechanical strength under compression load, hardness and wear resistance, or thermal stability. We also employed spectroscopy differentiate fabricated different grain sizes, reveal small fraction impurities, such as 5%vol ZrO2, embedded in non-porous alumina. These results potential radiation for characterization low loss high dielectric constant ceramics.

متن کاملTime-Domain Terahertz Magneto-Spectroscopy of Semiconductors
The terahertz frequency range, 0.1-10 THz, is one of the richest frequency ranges in condensed matter spectroscopy. Many important excitations and dynamical phenomena occur in this range, including superconducting gaps, protein conformational modes, phonons, and plasmons, just to name a few. Spectroscopic studies in this region provide valuable insights into the quantum states and dynamics of c...
متن کاملCharacterization of Wheat Varieties Using Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy
Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy and multivariate data analysis were explored to discriminate eight wheat varieties. The absorption spectra were measured using THz time-domain spectroscopy from 0.2 to 2.0 THz. Using partial least squares (PLS), a regression model for discriminating wheat varieties was developed. The coefficient of correlation in cross validation (R) and root-mean-square error of cr...

THz wave has been increasingly applied in engineering practice. One of its outstanding advantages is the penetrability through certain optically opaque materials, whose interior properties could be therefore obtained. In this report, we develop an experimental method to determine the plane stress state of optically opaque materials based on the stress-optical law using terahertz time-domain spe...
متن کاملTerahertz time-domain spectroscopy of edible oils
Chemical degradation of edible oils has been studied using conventional spectroscopic methods spanning the spectrum from ultraviolet to mid-IR. However, the possibility of morphological changes of oil molecules that can be detected at terahertz frequencies is beginning to receive some attention. Furthermore, the rapidly decreasing cost of this technology and its capability for convenient, in si...
