- Polypyrrole/zinc oxide composites investigated by complex permittivity measurements at isothermal conditions from room temperature to 15Â K.
- For 20, 30 and 40Â wt% ZnO composites, a high frequency relaxation is detected within the range 104-105Â Hz, in accordance with theoretical predictions for interfacial polarization.
- On increased ZnO loading, an additional low-frequency relaxation appears about the frequency range 10â2 to 10Â Hz and is ascribed to space charge relaxation.
- Composites loaded with 10Â wt% ZnO are most proper optoelectronic material for electric charge percolation, due to their combined good electrical conduction, poor capacitance effects.
Polypyrrole/zinc oxide composites were studied by broadband dielectric spectroscopy in the frequency range 10Â mHz to 1Â MHz for temperature ranging from 15Â K to room temperature. Lowering temperature, the dc conductivity was suppressed, revealing underlying dielectric relaxation mechanisms. For pristine polypyrrole and 10Â wt% ZnO composites, no dielectric relaxation is detectable. For 20, 30 and 40Â wt% ZnO composites, a relaxation was detected in the vicinity of range 104-105Â Hz. Its typical mean relaxation time and its concentration dependence are compatible with Sillar's model for interfacial polarization in heterogeneous matter consisting of inclusions dispersed within a dielectric matrix. At high ZnO concentration, a low-frequency relaxation also appeared around 0.01-10Â Hz, stemming from space charge polarization. The shift of the relaxation upon temperature provides an insight to the dynamics of relaxing charge entities.
