摘要
The dielectric properties of polycrystalline bismuth-based pyrochlores of the general chemical form Bi-2(B2/32+B4/35+)O-7 and Bi-2(B3+B5+)O-7 where B2+ = Mg, Cu, Zn and Ni, B3+ = SC and In, and B5+ = Nb and Ta, were investigated as a function of temperature and frequency. At low temperatures (T similar to 100-150 K), a dielectric dispersion was universally observed within these systems. The dielectric dispersion was analyzed using phenomenological models often used for describing dipolar glass systems. Similar activation energies and pre-exponential damping frequencies are found to exist with dipolar glasses such as RADP (RbxH2PO4-(NH4)(1-x)H2PO4), K1-xLixTaO3, KBr1-xCNx and Kl(1-x)(NO2)(x).
