Research ArticleOpen accessApplication of Direct Current and Temperature Stresses of Low-Voltage ZnO Based Varistor CeramicsM. G.M. Sabri, B. Z. Azmi, Zahid Rizwan et al.Problem statement: The stresses to humidity, DC and AC bias, multiple impulse voltages and high temperatures are known to affect the varistor performance and it is also interesting to know the effect of both DC bias and temperature stresses at the same time. Approach: Here, the simultaneous DC and temperature stresses degradation was investigated to see the changes of nonlinear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 8,379 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessSynthesis and Optical Properties of ZnO-TeO2 Glass SystemH. A.A. Sidek, S. Rosmawati, Z. A. Talib et al.Problem statement: Systematic series of ZnO-TeO2 glasses with mole fraction of 0.10-0.40 ZnO content with an interval of 0.05 were studied to obtain their physical and optical properties. Approach: All the glass samples were synthesized by rapid melting quenching method under controlled conditions, while their refractive indices (n) were measured by the EL X-02C high precision ellipsometer. The room temperature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 14,077 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEffects of ZnO on Dielectric Properties and Electrical Conductivity of Ternary Zinc Magnesium Phosphate GlassesS. F. Khor, Z. A. Talib, H. A.A. Sidek et al.Five different compositions of the ternary system (ZnO)x(MgO)30(P2O5)70-x containing 8, 10, 13, 15 and 18 moL% of ZnO were prepared by the melt quenching technique. The complex permittivity studies were presented in the frequency range of 0.01 Hz to 1 MHz and over the temperature range of 303-573 K. The empirical data were analyzed by means of the curve-fitting technique … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,240 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessFrequency Behavior of a Quartz Crystal Microbalance (Qcm) in Contact with Selected SolutionsZ. A. Talib, Z. Baba, S. Kurosawa et al.A device was constructed to monitor viscosity of solutions using fundamental frequency of 9 MHz and 10 MHz quartz crystal. Piezoelectric quartz crystals with gold electrodes were mounted by O-ring in between liquid flow cell. Only one side of the crystal was exposed to the solutions which were pumped through silicon tube by a peristaltic pump. The measured frequency shift … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,514 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessOptical Characterization of Lead-Bismuth Phosphate GlassesH. A.A. Sidek, M. Hamezan, A. W. Zaidan et al.Systematic series of lead-bismuth phosphate glasses, where PbO, Bi2O3 and P2O5 content change for every series based on their weight percentage have been prepared. The optical properties were measured and their amorphous nature was confirmed by X-ray diffraction technique. Both experiments were conducted at room temperature. The fundamental absorption edge for all the glasses was analyzed. The values of refractive … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 7,434 accessesView PDF Cite
