In this paper, we have evaluated theoretically the PEA method which is the most popular methods for the non-destructive measurement of space charge distribution in polymer dielectric materials and is recently one of big issues in DC high voltage cables. On the basis of theoretical evaluation, we have developed the space charge measurement system in polymer dielectrics under DC appled voltage and improved the accuracy of space charge distribution by applying the deconvolution process for distorted signals.

This paper introduces a simple new procedure approach to determine the permittivity of dielectric slabs. The method uses a parallel plate waveguide which supports a TEM mode. The presence of the dielectric slab placed at the bottom of the waveguide makes the speed of the TEM wave slower. The relationship between the change of the speed and the permittivity of the dielectric slab allows the determination of the permittivity. The relationship is analyzed electromagnetically, and the results of measurements are in good agreement with the analysis.

A free space transmission method using standard gain horn antennas in the frequency range from 9.0 to 10.5GHz is applied to determine the dielectric properties of grain such as rough rice, brown rife and barley. The dielectric constant and loss factor, which depend on the moisture content of the wetted grain are obtained from the measured attenuation and phase shift by vector network analyzer. The effect of density fluctuation, which is an important parameter governing the dielectric properties of grain, on the dielectric constant and loss factor is presented. A new density-independent model in terms of measured attenuation and moisture density is proposed for reducing the effects of density fluctuation on the moisture content measurement.

This letter presents a measurement methodology of the complex permittivity of liquid using a partially open cavity in narrow band. The partially open cavity (POC) can measure dielectric small changes caused by the temperature variation of the liquid inside the cavity as well. Using the resonance frequency and unloaded quality factor of the proposed POC, the complex permittivity is evaluated. The apertures on the walls of the cavity are designed to circulate the liquid inside to outside of the POC and located at the corner area of the cavity to minimize the disturbance of field distribution at the dominant mode. The results measured by the proposed POC were compared with those by the conventional open-ended probe and Cole-Cole equation. The POC showed better performance in measuring small dielectric constant changes than the open-ended probe.

The reason of lowering the dielectric constant of SiOC film was studied using parameters obtained from C-V measurement and refractive index. SiOC film was formed by the force of ionic bonding during the recombination of dissociated gases. Generally, the dielectric constant was obtained from the square of the refractive index or C-V measurement using the metal/insulator/Si structure. The dielectric constant consists of the ionic and electronic elements. It was researched about the dielectric constant of SiOC film using the average of the ionic and electronic elements. The dielectric constant decreased after annealing process. As deposited films trended toward the dielectric constant consisted of most ionic elements, on the other hand, annealed films mostly consisted of electronic elements. Because the effect of ionic elements reduced after annealing. Consequently, it was found that the electronic effect of SiOC film increased and the ionic effect of SiOC film decreased by the after-annealing.

To evaluate the applicability of dielectric constant measurement method on the geoenvironmental investigation of subsurface contaminated by landfill leachate, the analysis on dielectric characteristics of sand containing contaminated pore water by landfill leachate was performed. The separate real and imaginary parts of dielectric constant were investigated in the frequency range of 75kHz to 12MHz. The real part of dielectric constant increased at the lower frequency wherea the real part of dielectric constant decreased at the higher frequency as the concentration of leachate increased. These results can be explained by the frequency dependence of space charge polarization and orientation polarization. The imaginary part of dielectric constant on the contaminated sand with leachate increased with their concentration for whole frequency range. These results are caused by the increase of energy loss due to the enhancement of conduction in soil with leachate concentration. The results in this study indicate that the dielectric constant measurement method has potential in evaluating the contaminated soil and pore water by landfill leachate.

The $PbSc_{1/2}Nb_{1/2}O_3$ ceramics at a relatively low temperature of $1300^{\circ}C$ was successful synthesized. Solid state reaction of two-step process is not necessary. The dielectric constant, dielectric loss and admittance of ceramic samples were determined. The pyroelectric characteristics are in good agreement with the dielectric properties. Ferroelectric properties of well-formed the $PbSc_{1/2}Nb_{1/2}O_3$ ceramics are in agreement with broad distribution of relaxation phenomenon. Relatively strong frequency dependent of dielectric constant is observed at about $110^{\circ}C$. The distinct thermal hysteresis was observed in the measurement of the dielectric constant and dielectric loss. The critical exponents of during cooling and heating measurements in the $PbSc_{1/2}Nb_{1/2}O_3$ ceramics were 1.14 and 1.59 at 1 kHz, respectively.

We have investigated dielectric dispersion and absorption in organic light-emitting diodes using 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum($Alq_3$) as an electron transport and emissive material. We analyzed the dielectric dispersion and absorption of organic light emitting diodes using impedance characteristics measurement by the auto-balancing bridge technique of ITO/$Alq_3$/Al. Impedance characteristics was measured complex impedance Z and phase e in the frequency range of 40Hz to $10^8Hz$. We obtained dielectric constant and loss tangent (tan $\delta$) of the device. From these analyses, we are able to interpret a dielectric dispersion and dielectric absorption contributed by an interfacial and orientational polarization.

Thin film Ba$^{0.7}Sr^{0.3}TiO^{3}$ (BST) capacitors were fabricated on SiO$_{2}$/Si substrates by RF magnetron sputtering method and characterized at microwave frequencies ranging from 40 MHz to 1GHz to examine the dielectric dispersion of the capacitors. The BST thin films were electrode material of BST thin films capacitor which is known as one of the best electrode materials for BST films. 50$\AA$-thick titanium (Ti) layers were introduced to increase adhesion between bottom Pt and SiO$_{2}$. The leakage current density of the capacitors was about 1.7${\times}10^{7}A/cm^{2}$ at 1.5V and the dielectric constant was about 140 at 1MHz. Microwave measurement patterns having a coplanar waveguide type were fabricated and their S parameters were measured using network analyzer. After de-embedding parasitic components in microwave measurement patterns nearly frequency-invariant dielectric constant of about 120 was extracted in the measurement range of 40 MHz to 1 GHz.
