Abstract
- Dielectric response of Y<subscript>3</subscript>Fe<subscript>5</subscript>O<subscript>12</subscript> ceramics was investigated over broad temperature and frequency ranges. Three dielectric relaxations were identified in the temperature range from 125 to 620 K. A Debye-type dielectric relaxation at low temperatures (125â320 K) with an activation energy of 0.29 eV is shown to originate from the carrier hopping process between Fe<superscript>2+</superscript> and Fe<superscript>3+</superscript>. In a higher temperature range (320â620 K), a low frequency (fâ¤10 kHz) dielectric relaxation with an activation energy of 0.84 eV most likely arises from the inhomogeneous structure, such as grain boundaries. Another dielectric relaxation in a wider frequency range has a similar activation energy with conduction (E<subscript>a</subscript>=1.00 eV) suggests that it can be attributed to the conduction [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
