Model for zinc oxide varistor

Abstract: Zinc oxide varistors are very complex systems, and the dominant mechanism of voltage barrier formation in these systems has not been well established. Yet the MNDO quantum mechanical theoretical calculation was used in this work to determine the most probable defect type at the surface of a ZnO cluster. The proposed model represents well the semiconducting nature as well as the defects at the ZnO bulk and surface. The model also shows that the main adsorption species that provide stability at the ZnO surface a… Show more

“…In addition to the research studies for various gases, 1D nano‐PANI was also studied for biosensors, either as labels or as transducers 354–361. PANI nanofibers or nanotubes are prominent candidates for supports in enzyme immobilization and biosensors because of, on the one hand, several advantages including the excellent matrix for immobilization of biomolecules and rapid electron transfer for signals,362–365 and two redox couples in the right potential range that facilitate the enzyme–polymer charge transfer366 demonstrated by PANI; on the other hand, the large surface area and nanopores of PANI nanofibers or nanotubes into which enzymes and other target species can be immobilized 367–369. A glucose biosensor was fabricated by the immobilization of glucose oxidase and dendrimer‐encapsulated Pt nanoparticles onto PANI nanofibers through the electrostatic layer‐by‐layer adsorption method 366.…”

“…There is a large scope to develop many new materials by substituting a wide variety of cations at different interstitial sites that can tailor the physical properties of the material significantly for applications. Detailed literature survey shows that though some interesting work has been done on some TB structured compounds, [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] not much work have been reported on structural, dielectric and impedance properties of KPb 2 V 5 O 15 (a new member of TB structural family) ceramics.…”

“…It readily precipitates under ambient conditions and, having just one crystalline phase, it serves as a suitable model system for controlled crystallisation, without phase transitions complicating the study. Recently, much experimental and theoretical research has been performed in order to control the morphology of ZnO powders to meet the requirements of applications in different fields [11,12]. An equally large amount of work has been devoted to creating ZnO films on conductive substrates for electronic devices [13][14][15].…”
