Characterization of individual grain boundaries and grains of CaCu3Ti4O12 ceramic
Source abstract
Abstract
Microcontact measurement is employed to locally investigate the electric and dielectric properties of individual grains and grain boundaries in CaCu3Ti4O12 ceramic. The measurements give more detail of the impedance spectroscopy, capacitance, and I–V characteristics of the microstructure, and will help with further understanding of the mechanism of the electric and dielectric properties of CaCu3Ti4O12 ceramics.
