We use a near-field scanning microwave microscope to simultaneously image the dielectric constant, loss tangent, and topography in a PbTiO3 crystal. By this method, we study the effects of the local dielectric constant and loss tangent in the geometry of periodic domains on the measured resonant frequency, and quality factor. We also carry out theoretical calculations and the results agree well...

We present Monte Carlo simulation results for the dielectric constant of the polar hard dumb-bell fluid. The Ewald sum technique is used to take account of the long range nature of the electrostatic interactions. The results for the dielectric constant are found to be sensitive to the choice of the dielectric constant of the continuum which surrounds the simulation sample. We include comparison...

Dielectric properties of clove oil were determined using an impedance gain phase analyzer (HP 4194 A) at discrete frequencies between 10 kHz and 3 MHz and a range of temperature between 25 °C and 45 °C. A micro processor controller based temperature controller (Julabo F-25) was used for keeping the temperature of clove oil constant. Dielectric constant of the sample is found to decrease with in...

This paper discusses the effects of pore arrangements on the dielectric property of porous low-k and high-k dielectrics. Higher performance large scale integration (LSI) requires lower dielectric constant to decrease line-to-line capacitance. Recently, porous low-k dielectrics are introduced for low-k dielectrics because of its ultra lower dielectric constant. However, their poor mechanical str...

A new functionalised graphene sheet (FGS) filled poly(dimethyl)siloxane insulator nanocomposite has been developed with high dielectric constant, making it well suited for applications in flexible electronics. The dielectric permittivity increased tenfold at 10 Hz and 2 wt.% FGS, while preserving low dielectric losses and good mechanical properties. The presence of functional groups on the grap...

The article focuses on the measurement and calculation of dielectric properties of biological tissue in the frequency band 4,5 GHz – 16 GHz. Special attention is paid to the frequency and thermal dependence dielectric constant and loss factor. Observed frequency changes of biological tissue dielectric properties obey causality, i.e. Kramers-Krönig relationships which relate changes of dielectri...

The dielectric breakdown property of ultrathin 2.5 and 5.0 nm hafnium oxide (HfO2) gate dielectric layers with metal nitride (TaN) gate electrodes for metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) structure has been investigated. Reliability studies were performed with constant voltage stressing to verify the processing condition effects (film thicknesses and post metal annealing temperatures) on times to br...

The dielectric relaxation of benzyl alcohol substitutents (benzyl alcohol, m-methylbenzyl alcohol and m-nitrobenzyl alcohol) with methyl methacrylate and butyl methacrylate in dilute solution of carbon tetrachloride is measured at 9.37 GHz using Frequency domain (X-band) technique. Different dielectric parameters like dielectric constant (ε'), dielectric loss factor (ε'') at Microwave frequency...

Fertilized black soil samples are prepared by mixing desired amounts of fertilizers in the black soils having 10% gravimetric moisture content. Two black soil samples were collected from two different locations of Maharashtra State (India). Three different chemical fertilizers viz., Urea, Di-Ammonium Phosphate and Potash are used. Measurements of complex dielectric constants of these soil sampl...
