    By using a compression technique and a pelletizer, a Tellurium (Te) doped Bismuth Antimony (BiSb) sample in the form of pellet has been formed. Stoichiometric proportions of the materials (Bi, Sb, and Te) were calculated for the manufacture of pellets Bi2Sb(3-x):Tex (X = 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3). A precision LCR meter was used to measure the dielectric characteristics of Bi2Sb(3-x):Tex (X = 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3) pellets (BULK) in the frequency range of 20 Hz to 2 MHz at room temperature. Using Primary collected data, Dielectric loss, Dielectric constant, AC conductivity, and Real & Imaginary Electric modulus have been studied. All of these characteristics have been used to look at various ways that dielectric spectroscopy works.

    AbstractThe V–VI group of semiconductor materials have a narrow bandgap which is widely used for fabrication of optoelectronic devices. Bi2Sb2.9Te0.1 pellet (Bulk) was prepared using a compression method. Here, the structural property, optical property and surface topology of the material have been studied and the results and conclusion of these properties were discussed and reported in this article.Keywords: Bismuth antimonyXRDFT-IRSEMEDAX

    Напівпровідникові сполуки III-VI є цікавими матеріалами для виготовлення таких приладів як
\nдетектори іонізуючого випромінювання, твердотільні електроди, іонні акумулятори, а також фоточутливі гетероструктури та сонячні елементи. Структурна складність сімейства In-Se спонукала нас до
\nдослідження невивченого складу In2Se3 та його властивостей із легуванням сурмою (Sb). Метою даної
\nроботи є вивчення впливу сурми на нову конфігурацію In2Se3. Потрійні напівпровідникові сполуки у
\nвигляді монокристалів або тонких плівок викликають значний інтерес через свої структурні, оптичні
\nта електричні властивості, які дозволяють їх широко використовувати в багатьох електронних і оптоелектронних пристроях. Оскільки світовий енергетичний ринок шукає застосування, які пропонують
\nбільш ефективні електронні системи, монокристали In2Se2.7Sb0.3, синтезовані за модифікованою вертикальною технікою Бріджмена, відкривають шлях для захоплюючих інновацій у твердотільних фотоелектричних системах та секторах чистої енергії. Ми виростили монокристал In2Se2.7Sb0.3 за методикою Бріджмена-Стокбаргера. Температурний градієнт системи підтримували на рівні 60 °С/см зі
\nшвидкістю росту 0,35 см/год. Випробування твердості має важливе значення для інтерпретації механічної поведінки матеріалів і корелює з іншими фізичними властивостями. Твердість до деформації
\nвирощених кристалів залежить від міцності зчеплення та досконалості структури. Вимірювання мікротвердості розщеплених і загартованих зразків проводили за допомогою проекційного мікроскопа

    The complex relative dielectric function ε*(ω) = ε′ - jε″ of binary mixture of ADP material with pure water at varying concentration have been measure using the VNA in the frequency range 200MHz to 20GHz at room temperature (303.15K). The electrical or dielectric properties are represented in terms of complex relative dielectric function ε*(ω), complex electrical conductivity σ*(ω), Complex electric modulus M*(ω) and complex impedance Z*(ω). All these properties are used to elaborate the various processes contributed in the dielectric properties of the mixture of ADP and pure water. Effect of different concentration variation and different temperature of binary system are discussed in detailed.
