Different approaches for enhancing dielectric response of polymer and ceramic materials

Author(s): Vida Jurečič (Author), Vid Bobnar (Supervisor), Nikola Novak (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2025

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Dielectric materials are essential components of electronic devices and electric power systems. Consequently, the design and development of new materials with enhanced dielectric response remain of great importance. This dissertation examines three different approaches to enhancing the dielectric response: (i) percolative composites, (ii) polymer blending, and (iii) the induction of …

Inkjet printing and structure-property relations of ferroelectric thin-film structures

Author(s): Aleksander Matavž (Author), Vid Bobnar (Supervisor), Barbara Malič (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2019

Type: Doctoral dissertation

The additive manufacturing of functional structures by inkjet printing offers a unique and powerful alternative to conventional top-down patterning methods. Yet, multi-layer inkjet deposition is challenging due to problems with the wetting and drying. The wetting depends on the properties of the ink and the surface of the substrate. The …

Investigations and separation of various contributions to dielectric response of advanced ceramic and polymeric materials

Author(s): Andreja Eršte (Author), Vid Bobnar (Supervisor)

Year: 2013

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Dielectric materials, used to control and store charges and electric energy, play a key role in modern electronics and electric power systems. Dielectric spectroscopy is a versatile method, well-suited for detection, separation and characterization of various contributions to dielectric response of advanced ceramic and polymeric materials, as it enables understanding …
