Dielectric Behavior of a-Sn-Se-Pb-Ge Chalcogenide Glass

摘要

The bulk material Sn_8Se_(74)Pb_(18-x)Ge_x(7≤x≤11) has been prepared by melt quenching technique. The viterous and glassy nature have been confirmed by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Differential Scanning Calorimetery (DSC) techniques respectively. The material exhibits the good thermal stability and high value of glass transition temperature. The dielectric behavior has been studied in frequency range 50Hz-1MHz, using pallet method. The universal dielectric behaviour of amorphous semiconductors has been observed for the glass system. The compositional dependence of dielectric behavior has also been observed.
