Lower Dielectric Constants (lower + dielectric_constant)
Selected AbstractsDielectric and magnetic properties of citrate-route-processed Li,Co spinel ferritesPHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI (A) APPLICATIONS AND MATERIALS SCIENCE, Issue 7 2007Nutan Gupta Abstract Cobalt-substituted lithium ferrites (with general composition Li0.5,x /2CoxFe2.5,x /2O4, where x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6) were prepared at lower processing temperatures (,600 °C) by the citrate route. The single-phase spinel structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The average particle size of calcined powders calculated by the Scherrer formula is estimated to be 8,90 nm, whereas an average particle size of ,20 nm is observed from TEM for Co concentration x = 0.5. Average grain sizes from SEM micrographs of pellets sintered at 1000 °C (1 h) are observed to be 0.5,1 ,m, much smaller than the size reported for the standard ceramic method (2.1,6.8 ,m). The experimental density is observed to be 3.59,4.47 gm/cm3, which is greater than 85% of the densities evaluated from XRD. Compared with the standard ceramic method, lower dielectric constant (10,103) and higher dc resistivity (105,1010 , cm) is observed for Li,Co ferrites prepared by the citrate route. Improved magnetic properties, such as higher saturation magnetization (38,79 emu g,1) and Curie temperature (535 to 620 °C) are also investigated for the citrate-route-processed samples. These results demonstrate promising features of Li,Co ferrites in microwave applications. (© 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

The redistributed PPO was characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectra, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The redistributed PPO oligomers with terminal phenolic hydroxyl groups and low molecular weights (weight-average molecular weight = 800,4000) were used in the modification of a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A/4,4,-diaminodiphenylmethane network system. The curing behaviors were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The effect of molecular weight and the amount of redistributed PPO oligomers incorporated into the network on the physical properties of the resulting systems were investigated. The thermal properties of the cured redistributed PPO/epoxy resins were studied by dynamic mechanical analysis, thermal mechanical analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, and dielectric analysis. These cured redistributed PPO/epoxy resins exhibited lower dielectric constants, dissipation factors, coefficients of thermal expansion, and moisture absorptions than those of the control diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A based epoxy. The effects of the composition on the glass-transition temperature and thermal stability are discussed. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008 [source] A simple approach toward low-dielectric polyimide nanocomposites: Blending the polyimide precursor with a fluorinated polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxaneJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 18 2008Yun-Sheng Ye Abstract This article describes a new and simple method for preparing polyimide nanocomposites that have very low dielectric constants and good thermal properties: simply through blending the polyimide precursor with a fluorinated polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane derivative, octakis(dimethylsiloxyhexafluoropropyl) silsesquioxane (OF). The low polarizability of OF is compatible with polyimide matrices, such that it can improve the dispersion and free volume of the resulting composites. Together, the higher free volume and lower polarizability of OF are responsible for the lower dielectric constants of the PI-OF nanocomposites. This simple method for enhancing the properties of polyimides might have potential applicability in the electronics industry. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The poly(ether imide)s showed excellent solubility, with most of them dissoluble at a concentration of 10 wt % in amide polar solvents, in ether-type solvents, and even in chlorinated solvents. Their films had a cutoff wavelength between 358 and 373 nm, and the yellowness index ranged from 3.1 to 9.5. The glass-transition temperatures of the poly(ether imide) series were recorded between 237 and 297 °C, the decomposition temperatures at 10% weight loss were all above 494 °C, and the residue was more than 54% at 800 °C in nitrogen. These films showed high tensile strength and also were characterized by higher solubility, lighter color, and lower dielectric constants and moisture absorption than an analogous nonfluorinated polyimide series. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Compared with the fully dense BST samples, porous samples exhibit smaller grain sizes, a more uniform microstructure, and much lower dielectric constants, while at the same time, exhibiting little increase in tunability, which is beneficial to the development of microwave-tunable applications. At a frequency of 10 kHz and a temperature of 18°C, as porosity increased from 0% to 28.8%, the dielectric constant of the BST ceramics (under zero bias field) decreased from ,r(0),1690 to ,r(0),990, while the dielectric losses were still less than 0.2%, and the tunability increased from 17.6% to 19.6% (2.6 kV/mm).
