Fractional Power-Law Spectral Response of CaCu3Ti4O12 Dielectric:
Many-Body Effects
   [PDF]

Jitender Kumar, A. M. Awasthi
Spectral character of dielectric response in CaCu3Ti4O12 across 0.5Hz-4MHz over 45-200K corresponding to neither the Debyean nor the KWW relaxation patterns rather indicates a random-walk like diffusive dynamics of moments. Non-linear relaxation here is due to the many body dipole-interactions, as confirmed by spectral-fits of our measured permittivity to the Dissado-Hill behaviour. Fractional power-laws observed in {\epsilon}*({\omega}) macroscopically reflect the fractal microscopic configurations. Below ~100K, the power-law exponent m (n) steeply decreases (increases), indicating finite length-scale collective response of moment-bearing entities. At higher temperatures, m gradually approaches 1 and n falls to low values, reflecting tendency towards the single-particle/Debyean relaxation.
