Summary: The study focused on the properties of glass composites containing WO3 prepared by the melt-quenching procedure, showing that the dielectric constant and conductivity of the samples increase at higher temperatures. The analysis indicates that the conduction mechanism in the glass samples mainly follows the correlated barrier hopping model, with activation energy calculations suggesting the involvement of the same charges in multiple processes.

Summary: The dielectric properties of PVC-fGO films were studied in different temperatures, showing that the high dielectric constant values at low frequencies in different nanocomposites were induced by the space charge effect from electrode polarization. The maximum barrier height decreased with increasing temperature and was independent of the fGo content. The real dielectric modulus decreased with increasing fGO content, while the AC conductivity increased up to 0.3 wt% of fGO and then decreased.

Summary: MoS2 nanosheets with a hexagonal crystal structure were synthesized using solvothermal methods. The optical properties of the nanosheets were investigated, including absorbance, photoluminescence, refractive index, dielectric constant, and optical conductivity. Temperature-dependent indirect bandgap and carrier lifetime were simulated and analyzed. The MoS2 exhibited a large dielectric constant and low tangent loss, showing semiconductor-like behavior.

Summary: A series of Pb-based multiferroic solid solutions (PFCN) were synthesized and characterized in terms of structural, microstructural, dielectric, and conductivity properties. It was observed that an increase in the PCN content led to an increase in the unit cell volume and a decrease in density.

Summary: In this work, NiFe2O4@NiO (1:0, 0.9:0.1, 0.7:0.3, 0.5:0.5, and 0:1) nanocomposites were prepared using a co-precipitation process to investigate their structural, dielectric, and optical properties for potential application in wastewater treatment. XRD, FTIR spectroscopy, and TEM were used to study the structural and morphological properties. The particle size was found to increase with nickel oxide content, and the oxidation state was determined using XPS. The impedance, dielectric constant, dielectric loss, and ac conductivity were observed to increase with nickel oxide concentration. The (0.5NiFe(2)O(4)/0.5NiO) nanocomposite exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity, degrading 95.41% of methylene blue dye within 120 min.
