Dielectric response of silica aerogels

Adão A. da Silva, Dayse I. dos Santos, Michel A. Aegerter

Abstract

The dielectric response of porous silica aerogel prepared by hypercritical drying of gels from hydrolysis of TMOS — Methanol solution have been measured between 1.6 K to 300 K and frequencies between 50 and 10 5 Hz. The ɛ' value of the porous gels is found practically constant between room temperature and 100K but smaller than of fused silica. A sharp decrease of ɛ' is observed near 35 K and accompanied by a large loss peak (tg δ). A small increase of ɛ' for T < 13 K is attributed to the adsorption of He atoms on the porous superficies.
