Abstract
Abstract The dielectric constant measured by the LCR-meter is a differential-type, and is not equivalent to capacitivity. Capacitivity of ferroelectrics is the dielectric constant corresponding to electric hysteresis loop. Two kinds of dielectric constants are investigated based on the P-E loop mechanisms: turning effect of dipoles toward electric field direction, electric field-induced polarization effect, and dipole coupling effect. Numerical simulation of the theoretic equations exhibit adouble-peak of the differential dielectric constant, in which the distance between the two peaks depends on the temperature and the electric field. A much narrow static dielectric constant peak and negative peak appear corresponding to the loop. Mechanisms are analyzed schematically in detail. HIGHLIGHTS Definitions of differential- and static-dielectric constant are introduced and compared. Theoretic equations for the two dielectric constants are derived from the three effects. Variations of the two dielectric constants with E and T are demonstrated schematically. Mechanisms of the variations are explained in detail.
期刊介绍:
Ferroelectrics Letters is a separately published section of the international journal Ferroelectrics. Both sections publish theoretical, experimental and applied papers on ferroelectrics and related materials, including ferroelastics, ferroelectric ferromagnetics, electrooptics, piezoelectrics, pyroelectrics, nonlinear dielectrics, polymers and liquid crystals.
Ferroelectrics Letters permits the rapid publication of important, quality, short original papers on the theory, synthesis, properties and applications of ferroelectrics and related materials.
