We have investigated dielectric properties depending on temperature and voltage in organic light-emitting diodes using N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-(1,1'-biphenyl)-4,4'-di-amine (TPD) as an hole transport. We analyzed the Cole-Cole plot of TPD. When the voltage is over 3 V, we found that a radius of Cole-Cole plot and $\beta$ increase as the temperature increases to 65 $^{\circ}C$, However, as the over the 65 $^{\circ}C$, those values decrease. Also, when the voltage is below 3 V, a radius of cole-cole plot and $\beta$ increase with the increased temperature.

Clay minerals show a distinct induced-polarization phenomenon, which is one of the most important factors for predicting groundwater flow and contaminant transport. This paper presents a step-by-step process to estimate Cole-Cole parameters from spectral induced-polarization (IP) data measured on the surface of three-dimensional earth. First, the inversion of low-frequency resistivity survey data is made to identify the dc resistivity ${\rho}_dc$ of a volume having IP effects. The other parameters, chargeability m, time constant $\tau$, and frequency dependence c, are sought for the polarizable volume. Next, using multi-frequency data, c can be obtained as high or low asymptotes of the slope of log phase vs. log frequency. Further, for low m, intrinsic $\tau$ is approximated by apparent one, ${\tau}_a$, which is derived from the relation ${{\omega}{\tau}}_a$=1 at an angular frequency $\omega$, where the imaginary component of spectral IP data has an extreme value. Finally, to obtain intrinsic m a two-step linearized procedure has been derived. For a body of given $\tau$ and c, forward modeling with a progression of m values yields a plot of observed vs. intrinsic imaginary components for a frequency. Since this plot is essentially linear, to extract the intrinsic imaginary component is quite simple with an observed value. Using the plot of intrinsic imaginary component vs. m, intrinsic m is determined. We present a synthetic example to illustrate that the Cole-Cole parameters can be recovered from spectral IP data.

Impedance spectroscopy informs electrical properties of materials as accumulated charges, contact status between electrode and organic materials. We carried out impedance spectroscopy of organic light-emitting diodes as ITO/Alq3(60 nm)/Al on temperatures from 10 K to 300 K. The result described Z'-Z" plot, cole-cole plot and dielectric relaxation time τ. Z'-Z" plot means that real and imaginary part of materials in organic and electrode by frequencies and temperature. Z' as real part of impedance by applied frequency depending on temperature shows the plateau in low frequency region as Rs+ Rp and over 100 kHz in high frequency region as Rs. Cole-cole plot shows resistance of materials in equivalent circuit of the device by temperatures. And equivalent circuit and dielectric relaxation could be accomplished by using the complex impedance analysis.

유기발광소자의 발광층의 두께에 따른 임피던스의 변화를 살펴보았다. 임피던스는 두께에 따라 저항의 변화에 따른 의존성을 보이며, 그에 따른 임피던스와 Cole-Cole 반원의 변화, 두께에 따른 $1/\tau$ 의 변화를 살펴보았다. 발광층의 두께는 각각 100, 200, 300 nm의 두께로 열증착하여 실험하였고, 소자의 구조는 $ITO/Alq_3/Al$의 구조로 측정 하였다. 유기발광소자의 발광층인 $Alq_3$의 두께가 증가함에 따라 임피던스의 크기가 증가하고, 위상각의 크기는 100nm의 경우 0V에서 용량성을 보이다가 6~10V까지 부성저항특성을 나타낸 후 약 22V에서 저항성을 나타내고, 200과 300 nm의 경우 12V까지 용량성을 나타내다 이후 22V 근방에서 $0^{\circ}$에 가까워지며 저항성을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 두께에 따른 Cole-Cole 반원을 살펴보면 두께가 증가할수록 반원의 크기가 증가하는 것을 알 수 있으며, 이를 통해 간단한 등가회로를 예측할 수 있었다. 그리고 벌크내의 용량성$(C_p)$을 측정하여 두께의 증가에 따라 $C_p$ 값이 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

To study the impedance characteristics of a fluorescent OLED according to the device structure, we fabricated Device 1 using ITO / NPB / $Alq_3$ / Liq / Al, Device 2 using ITO / 2-TNATA / NPB / $Alq_3$ / Liq / Al, and Device 3 using ITO / 2-TNATA / NPB / SH-1:BD / $Alq_3$ / Liq / Al. The current density and luminance decreased with an increasing number of layers of the organic thin films in the order of Device 1, 2, 3, whereas the current efficiency increased. From the Cole-Cole plot at a driving voltage of 6 V, the maximum impedance values of Devices 1, 2, and 3 were respectively 51, 108, and $160{\Omega}$ just after device fabrication. An increase in the impedance maximum value is a phenomenon caused by the charge mobility and the resistance between interfaces. With the elapse of time after the device fabrication, the shape of the Cole-Cole plot changed to a form similar to 0 or a lower voltage due to the degradation of the device. As a result, we were able to see that an impedance change in an OLED reflects the characteristics of the degradation and the layer.

We have investigated the ionic conductivity and dielectric relaxation in $Li_2B_4O_7$ (LBO) and $Li_2O-B_2O_3-Ta_2O_5$ (LBTO) glasses. The sample was synthesized by using the melt quenching method. The frequency dependence of the electrical data from the LBO and LBTO glasses has been analyzed in the frameworks of the impedance Cole-Cole formalism and the universal power-law representation driven by the modified fractional Rayleigh equation. The potential barriers in the LBO and the LBTO glasses turn out to be the same. Comparing with the dc and ac activation energies of the LBO glass, these energies of the LBTO glass decrease due to the increasing Coulomb interaction of inter-cationic interaction.

The effects of molecular weight (MW) and concentration on the rheological properties of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) solutions in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were investigated at $30^{\circ}C$. Ubbelohde viscometer and rotational rheometer were employed for dilute and concentrated regime, respectively. In the dilute regime, the Mark-Houwink exponent ($\alpha$) of the solutions determined from three different MWs proved 0.73. The critical concentration (C*), in which the entanglement and overlap of polymer molecules began to take place, decreased with increasing the MW of PVA. Huggins constant ($K_H$) values ranged from 0.33 to 0.45 over the MW examined. In the log-log plot of $\eta_{sp}$ versus [$\eta$]C, the PVA with higher degree of polymerization (DP) gave a greater slope exhibiting the inflection point in the vicinity of C*. In the dynamic viscosity ($\eta'$) curve, the PVA solutions of DP 1700 presented Newtonian fluid behavior over most of the frequency range examined. However, the lower Newtonian flow region reduced with increasing the DP. As the PVA concentration increased, $\eta'$ was increased and the onset shear rate for pseudoplasticity was decreased. In the Cole-Cole plot, PVA solutions showed almost a single master curve in a slope of ca. 1.65 regardless of the DP. However, the increase of the concentration from 8 to 12 wt% for PVA solutions of DP 5000 decreased the slope from 1.73 to 1.57. In the tan $\delta$ curve, the onset frequency for sol-gel transition was shifted from 154 to 92 rad/s with increasing the DP from 3300 to 5000 and from 192 to 46 rad/s with increasing the concentration from 8 to 12 wt%. In addition, longer relaxation time ($\lambda$) was observed with increasing the DP and concentration.

The frequency dependence of complex permeability for various NiCuZn ferrites was investigated. The variation of complex permeability for NiCuZn ferrites can be presented as a form of a semi-circle, so called the Cole-Cole plot, and the relaxation phenomena were explained with various shapes of the plots. The relaxation time $\Upsilon$ was calculated from $f_rx$, which is a relaxation frequency at ${\mu"}_{max}$. Relations between anisotropy field $H_A$ and relaxation time $\Upsilon$, initial permeability $\mu_i$ and $H_A$ were plotted to identify the frequency dependence of complex permeability.lity.

In this study, bioelectrical impedance analysis, which has been used to assess an alteration in intracellular fluid (ICF) of the body, was applied to detect intravenous infiltration. The experimental results are described as follows. Firstly, when infiltration occurred, the resistance gradually decreased with time and frequency i.e., the resistance decreased with increasing time, proportional to the amount of infiltrated intravenous (IV) solution. At each frequency, the resistance gradually decreased with time, indicating the IV solution (also blood) accumulated in the extracellular fluid (ECF) (including interstitial fluid). Secondly, the resistance ratio started to increase at infiltration, showing the highest value after 1.4 min of infiltration, and gradually decreased thereafter. Thirdly, the impedance ($Z_C$) of cell membrane decreased significantly (especially at 50 kHz) during infiltration and gradually decreased thereafter. Fourthly, Cole-Cole plot indicated that the positions of (R, $X_C$) shifted toward left owing to infiltration, reflecting the IV solution accumulated in the ECF. The resistance ($R_0$) at zero frequency decreased continuously over time, indicating that it is a vital impedance parameter capable of detecting early infiltration during IV infusion. Finally, the mechanism of the current flowing through the ECF, cell membrane, and ICF in the subcutaneous tissues was analyzed as a function of time before and after infiltration, using an equivalent circuit model of the human cell. In conclusion, it was confirmed that the infiltration could be detected early using these impedance parameters during the infusion of IV solution.

The rheological properties of the solutions of atactic poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were investigated in terms of molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the polymer. The dynamic viscosity (${\eta}#$) and loss modulus (G") for the PVA/DMSO solutions with broader MWD were lower than those with narrower MWD at the similar $M_w$. It could be explained by the fact that the free volume for the solution with broader MWD at the similar $M_w$ was increased. The storage modulus(G#) of 14 wt% PVA/DMSO solutions with broader MWD was higher than that with narrower MWD at a lower frequency than 1.3 rad/sec, but lower than that with narrower MWD at a higher frequency (>1.3 rad/sec). The slopes of modified Cole-Cole plots of the 14 wt% solutions showed that as the MWD was broadened, the phase transition with frequency was more noticeable.
