Tunable Properties (tunable + property)
Selected AbstractsDielectric Tunable Properties and Relaxor Behavior of (Pb0.5Ba0.5)ZrO3 Thin FilmsJOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CERAMIC SOCIETY, Issue 12 2008Xihong Hao Pb0.5Ba0.5ZrO3 (PBZ50) thin films with a thickness of about 500 nm in the paraelectric-phase were deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates via the sol,gel process. The room-temperature dielectric measurements showed that the tunability and figure of merit (FOM) of the PBZ50 films at the maximum external DC field of 200 kV/cm were 39% and 38%, respectively. The results of temperature-dependent dielectric measurements confirmed that PBZ50 films had a typical diffuse phase transition characteristic and relaxor behavior. [source] Surface Nanometer-Scale Patterning in Realizing Large-Scale Ordered Arrays of Metallic Nanoshells with Well-Defined Structures and Controllable PropertiesADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 15 2010Shikuan Yang Abstract Surface patterns of nanoshell arrays play an important role in diverse applications including surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensors, lithium-ion batteries, solar cells, and optical devices. This paper describes an innovative surface nanopatterning technique for realizing large-scale ordered arrays of metallic spherical nanoshells with well-defined structures. Ag nanoshell arrays are prepared using polystyrene sphere templates by an electrophoretic process in Ag colloidal solutions. The fabricated Ag nanoshell arrays have a high controllability of the structural parameters, including the diameter, the surface roughness, and the intershell spacing, giving rise to the tunable properties of nanoshell arrays. As an example, tunable SERS and localized surface plasmon resonance of the nanoshell arrays are demonstrated by controlling the structural parameters. The surface nanopatterning technique shown in this paper is a general fabrication process in achieving not only metallic nanoshell arrays, but also nanoshell arrays of semiconductors and metallic oxides.

Zoldesi New types of monodisperse, micrometer-sized, hollow particles (see Figure) are obtained by encapsulation of emulsion droplets in solid shells and dissolution of the cores. A facile fabrication method is used in which, by simply tuning the thickness of the shells, different types of particles with tunable properties are obtained. [source] Improvement of Microwave Loss Tangent and Tunability of Ba0.55Sr0.45TiO3/MgO Composites Using the Heterogeneous Precipitation MethodJOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CERAMIC SOCIETY, Issue 10 2006Rui-Hong Liang Ba0.55Sr0.45TiO3/MgO composites were successfully prepared by the heterogeneous precipitation method and their structural, surface morphological, tunable properties, and dielectric properties at microwave frequency were systemically investigated. Compared with the sample prepared by the traditional solid-state method, the sample prepared by the heterogeneous precipitation method exhibits a smaller grain size, more uniform microstructure, higher tunability, and lower microwave loss, and these properties are very beneficial to the development of the microwave tunable devices application. Moreover, the effects of La2O3 doping on the dielectric and tunable properties of BST/MgO composites are investigated. The result shows that the La3+ -doped sample has higher tunability and lower microwave loss than the undoped one. [source] | ||||||||||
