The dielectric time domain differential spectroscopy of polyethylene terephthalate

Abstract

Studies of dielectric time domain differential spectroscopy in thermodynamically equilibrium state for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film samples are reported. The experimental results show that the response function is F/sub n/=exp[-(t//spl tau//sub n/)/spl alpha/(n)] with and two typical value of /spl alpha//sub n/ are /spl alpha//sub n/=1 and /spl alpha//sub n/=1/2 in low temperature condition; the line of time domain spectroscopy split up in high temperature condition and the /spl tau//sub n/(n>1) of slow response can increase as the temperature rising. A model that free diffusion of the unequilibrium binding space charge can describe the discharge relaxation process of PET film is suggested.
