Modeling of thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) using dipole–dipole interaction concept

Abstract

The study of thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) using the dipole–dipole interaction model is describedin this work. The dipole–dipole interaction model (DDIM) determines the TSDC peak successfully since it gives significant peak parameters (i.e. activation energy (${\bf \textit{E}}$) and pre-exponential factor (${\boldsymbol\tau}_{{\bf 0}})$) in addition to the dipole–dipole interaction strength parameter (${\bf \textit{d}}_{{\bf i}})$. Application of this model to study the peak parameters of some polymeric systems is presented.
