Aging Effects on PTCR Ceramics: SEM and C‐AFM Analysis of Electrical Conductivity and Domain Structures

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, Volume 23, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of aging on the electrical and structural properties of positive temperature coefficient of resistance (PTCR) ceramics. The presented study introduces a correlative scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/conductive atomic force microscopy (C‐AFM) approach enabling repeated, site‐specific characterization of ...

Nature and Characteristics of a Voltage-Biased Varistor and its Embedded Transistor

open access: yesIEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2015
An unorthodox approach for producing simple and yet practical transistors based on ceramic platforms is discussed in this paper. To achieve this, we modify the original nonlinear current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of a varistor by superimposing a ...

Analysis of the Anti High‐Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse Interference Ability of Relay Protection Devices

open access: yesHigh Voltage, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 738-750, June 2026.
ABSTRACT High altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP), as a steep slope and high amplitude instantaneous energy shock, has stronger coupling and greater destructive power, which can easily cause the secondary control device of the substation to malfunction.

Structure of a Novel Spinel Li0.5Zn5/3Sb2.5/3O4 by Neutron and Synchrotron Diffraction Analysis

open access: yesCrystals, 2017
Zn7/3Sb2/3O4 is a secondary phase in ZnO-based varistors. Acceptor impurities, such as Li+, increase the resistivity. This effect is produced by a modification of the grain boundary barriers.

Electrical properties of ZnO varistors prepared by direct mixing of constituent phases [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Sintering, 2006
Varistor samples containing different amounts of constituent phases were prepared by direct mixing of constituent phases. Detailed electrical characterization was performed to explain the influence of minor phases (spinel and intergranular phases) on ...

The mathematics of varistors

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2016
A three-dimensional model of the varistor device is proposed. The thermal and electric conductivity of the material are taken to depend, in addition to the electric potential, on the temperature. Two theorems of existence and uniqueness of solutions for the boundary-value problem which determine the potential and the temperature inside the device are ...
