研究目的
To investigate the electrical properties of pyroelectric Lithium Tantalate (LiTaO3) and Lithium Niobate (LiNbO3) and compare them to accessible X-ray energies generated by the pyroelectric effect.
研究成果
The study demonstrated the influence of crystal structure on the electrical properties of pyroelectric LiTaO3 and LiNbO3. Capacitance and permittivity measurements serve as simple tools for identifying the direction of polarization and potential fabrication failures. Maximum energies of generated X-rays can be estimated based on these properties.
研究不足
The approximation of the difference of potential between LiTaO3 and LiNbO3 should only be used for identical experimental conditions due to the influence of pressure on maximum X-ray energies.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
The study involved measuring the capacitance of different pyroelectric crystals of varying sizes and calculating their permittivities. A vacuum setup was used to correlate these measurements with the maximum X-ray energies at variable pressures.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
Different sizes of LiTaO3 and LiNbO3 crystals (3?3?6 mm, 5?5?6 mm, 7?7?6 mm, and 9?9?6 mm) were used for capacitance measurements in the direction of polarization and perpendicular to it.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
LCR-meter (Voltcraft LCR-300), energy-dispersive X-ray detector (Amptek X-123 SDD), adjustable vacuum chamber, copper foil (25 μm thickness), Kapton? foil (50 μm thickness).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
Capacitance measurements were executed at room temperature with a frequency of 10 kHz. X-ray intensities and energies were measured using the X-ray detector inside the vacuum chamber. Crystals were heated to 150 °C at a pressure of 2?10-3 mbar, and X-ray spectra were collected for 600 s during the cooling phase.
5:Data Analysis Methods
The capacitance and permittivity values were calculated from the measurements. The influence of crystal size and pressure on X-ray energies was analyzed.
