Effective methods of reducing and eliminating remanent light flow by using buffer and capping layers on the surface of the devices have been examined. Several very effective buffer and capping layers have been tested which can not only reduce or eliminate the remanent light flow but can also enhance the electrooptic effect by 10 to 30%. The physical origin of the remanent light flow, methods for eliminating it, and the physical origin of the electrooptic enhancement effect are examined, and experimental results are presented.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":367142,"journal":{"name":"ISAF '92: Proceedings of the Eighth IEEE International Symposium on Applications of Ferroelectrics","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124500853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At high frequencies e.g., >2 kHz, a maximum is observed in the real part of the complex dielectric constant, which corresponds to the Curie point. However, at low frequencies, e.g., 200 Hz, the dielectric constant increases monotonically with temperature. A space charge blocking model and an electric charge hopping model are discussed in order to explain this phenomenon. Further experimental results on the frequency dependence of dielectric constant and AC conductivity provide additional support for the charge hopping model. The AC conductance at high temperatures is much more sensitive to temperature than that at low temperatures. The activation energy Q/sub 1/ at high temperatures is about 1.3 eV. The apparent activation energy Q/sub 2/ at low temperatures is about 0.35 eV.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":367142,"journal":{"name":"ISAF '92: Proceedings of the Eighth IEEE International Symposium on Applications of Ferroelectrics","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127472716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
