Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Effect of Ionic Substitution on the Structural, Dielectric and Electrical Properties of Bismuth Zinc Niobate Ceramics(Korean Assoc Crystal Growth, inc, 2012) Qasrawi, A. F.; Abu Je'ib, Hussein A.; Mergen, A.; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringThe effects of tin substitution on the structural, dielectric and electrical properties of the Bi1.5Zn0.92Nb1.5O6.92 pyrochlore ceramics have been investigated. Tin atoms was substituted in the A (Bi1.5Zn0.46)-site instead of zinc and in the B ((Zn0.46Nb1.5)-site instead of niobium in accordance to the chemical formulae Bi1.5Zn0.92Nb1.5-xO6.92-x/2 and (Bi1.5-x/3Zn0.46-3x/2Snx)(Nb1.5Zn0.46)O-6.92, for 0.00 <= x <= 0.40 and 0.00 <= x <= 0.60, respectively. A relative single phase formation of the structures was possible for x values less than 0.25 and less than 0.10. Pronounced tunability in the dielectric constant values associated with very low dielectric loss are obtainable by Sn substitution. Furthermore, a frequency invariant but linearly varying temperature dependent dielectric constant is observed. The electrical conductivity decreased by two and one order of magnitude for the A and B-site substitutions, respectively. The temperature-dependent conductivity analysis in the temperature region of 300-500 K, reflected the existence of shallow and deep impurity energy levels being created by the doping process.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 9Tunable Au/Ga2< Varactor Diodes Designed for High Frequency Applications(Natl inst R&d Materials Physics, 2017) Al Garni, S. E.; Qasrawi, A. F.; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringIn this work, the design and characterization of Au/Ga2S3/Yb Schottky barrier is investigated by means of transmittance electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS), capacitance spectroscopy, capacitance (C)-voltage (V) characteristics and impedance spectroscopy techniques. The design of the energy band diagram of the amorphous Au/Ga2S3 interface revealed a theoretical energy barrier height (q phi(b)) and built in voltage (qV(bi)) of 2.04 and 1.88 eV, respectively. Experimentally, the qV(bi) was observed to be sensitive to the applied signal frequency. In addition, the capacitance spectra which were studied in the range of 10-1800 MHz, revealed resonance and antiresonance biasing dependent signal oscillations associated with negative capacitance values. On the other hand, impedance spectroscopy analysis revealed band pass/reject filtering properties in all the studied frequency range. The device exhibited a return loss, voltage standing wave ratio and power efficiency of 16.7 dB, 1.3 and 98.3% at 1400 MHz, respectively.
