Clustering in rare-earth-doped alkaline earth fluorides (dielectric relaxation)
Open accessAbstract
Audio-frequency capacitance and conductance measurements have been carried out for calcium fluoride doped with 1.0 mol.% of thirteen rare earths, and 10 and 20 mol.% of erbium and lanthanum; strontium fluoride doped with 0.1 and 1.0 mol.% of twelve rare earths, yttrium and lanthanum; and barium fluoride doped with 0.1 mol.% of twelve rare earths, yttrium and lanthanum. For the moderately doped calcium fluoride samples, it is found that the low-temperature (R III ) relaxation dominates the spectrum for small rare earths. For large rare earths, the dimer-associated R IV ('gettered' 2:2:2) relaxation dominates the spectrum. The primary result for strontium fluoride is the observation of a new relaxation in the heavily doped samples with an activation energy which depends strongly upon the size of the rare earth and thus is attributed to R IV dimers. Other results may be summarised as follows. The R IV dimer becomes less stable as the host size increases but also as the rare earth size decreases. For smaller rare earth dopants, R III is more stable in the smaller hosts and appears at lower concentrations in smaller hosts. Correspondingly, the complexity of the dielectric spectrum increases for smaller hosts and smaller rare earth dopants.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
