Permittivity order modulation by intrinsic dielectric coupling
2021
The room-temperature permittivity is reduced by one order of magnitude in a wide frequency range during each step, when the stoichiometric proportion of Cu in CaCu3Ti4O12 is decreased from 3 to 2 and then to 1. The frequency-independent reduction can be applied down to 140 K. Such an almost frequency- and temperature-independent decrease in the permittivity magnitude order suggests the existence of intrinsic dielectric coupling between binary dielectric polarization species, by which the less polaron-like 3d electrons from B-site copper ions more strongly depress the permittivity contribution from one-dimensional, anti-parallel, mutually independent, and finite length dipole chains of thermally activated off-center displacements of A-site titanium ions.
