The dielectric response of La- and Dy- doped BiFeO3 thin films to electric- and magnetic fields was measured at microwave frequencies (up to 12GHz) in a temperature range from 25°C to 300°C. Interesting phenomena were observed. Significant oscillations in the C(f) characteristic which were unaffected by the electric field or by elevated temperature but which were dampened by a magnetic field. We also observed 'N'-type I-V characteristics. A possible explanation for this mesoscopic response is the presence of structural features that cause resonance (e.g. grains, grain-boundaries, domains, domain walls etc), with a contribution strong enough to be averaged by the system. The exact origin of these features is unknown at present. © 2007 Materials Research Society.

Krupka J, Breeze J, Alford NMN, Centeno AE, Jensen L, Claussen Tet al., 2006, Measurements of permittivity and dielectric loss tangent of high resistivity float zone silicon at microwave frequencies, Pages: 1097-1100

Real part of permittivity and the dielectric loss tangent of float zone high resistivity Silicon were measured at microwave frequencies at temperatures from 10 K up to 380 K employing dielectric resonator technique. The real part of permittivity proved to be frequency independent and the decrease in dielectric loss tangent versus frequency proved to be not entirely proportional to the inverse of frequency. At temperatures below 25 K where all free carriers are frozen-out loss tangents values the order of 10-4 were measured.
