Abstract
This study explores the impact of CaTiO3 and LiNbO3 crystals on the optical and dielectric properties of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) films. Our investigation employs UV–Visible Spectroscopy to characterize the n-π* C-F related electronic transition within the PVDF matrix. We find that CaTiO3 crystals significantly decrease the composite’s band gap and dielectric properties, enhancing its electronic and optical attributes. Conversely, LiNbO3 crystals increase the band gap energy. These variations align with observed DC conductivity changes, suggesting novel functionalities for optoelectronic, sensing, and energy storage applications.
