Thermally Stimulated Depolarization Current

摘要

Thermally stimulated ischarge or thermally stimulated polarization and depolarization current is becoming a valuable technique in discerning transitions having a small relaxation strength. Polymer liquid crystals (PLCs) are a group of such materials. This article provides a review of the different experimental techniques associated with the technique and their application to PLCs. Experimental results for tehermotropic longitudinal PLCs are presented.
