Impedance spectroscopy: Impedance spectroscopy of nanomaterials
Rainer Schmidt
Solid state impedance spectroscopy enables the various contributions to the resistive and capacitive properties of electronically inhomogeneous condensed matter to be deconvoluted…
Electron microscopy of microwave-synthesized rare-earth chromites
Rainer Schmidt, Jesus Prado-Gonjal, David Avila +2
The perovskite rare-earth (RE) chromite series (RE)CrO3 (RE = La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Y, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu) has been synthesized in our laboratory using microwave tech…
Bi containing multiferroic perovskite oxide thin films
Rainer Schmidt, Eric Langenberg, Jofre Ventura +1
In this work multiferroic thin films of Bi containing perovskite oxides are discussed, where the driving force for ferroelectricity are the Bi3+ lone-pair electrons. First, a brief…
CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) ceramics for capacitor applications
Rainer Schmidt, Derek C. Sinclair
CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) ceramics are potential candidates for capacitor applications due to their large dielectric permittivity (e') values of up to 300 000. The underlying mechanism fo…
Microwave Assisted Synthesis and Characterization of Perovskite Oxides
Jesus Prado-Gonjal, Rainer Schmidt, Emilio Moran
The use of microwave irradiation is a promising alternative heat source for the synthesis of inorganic materials such as perovskite oxides. The method offers massive energy and tim…
Evidence for a capacitor network near the metal insulator transition in VO2 thin films probed by in-plane impedance spectroscopy
J. -G. Ramírez, Edgar J. Patiño, Rainer Schmidt +3
Impedance spectroscopy measurements were performed in high quality Vanadium dioxide (VO2) thin films. This technique allows us investigate the resistive and capacitive contribution…
