摘要
Impedance spectroscopy has been performed on CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) single crystals and ceramics using Au and InGa alloy electrodes. The extrinsic effect responsible for the giant permittivity observed at radio-frequencies near room temperature is shown to be different for single crystals and ceramics. For single crystals it is attributed to a non-ohmic electrode contact to semiconducting CCTO. For ceramics it is attributed to an internal barrier layer capacitor mechanism associated with semiconducting CCTO grains and insulating grain boundaries.
