CaCu 3 Ti 4 O 12 (CCTO) has a large dielectric permittivity that is independent of the 1 arXiv:1810.08949v3 [cond-mat.mtrl-sci] 17 Nov 2018 probing frequency near the room temperature, which complicated due to the existence of several dynamic processes. Here, we consider the combined effects of localized charge carriers (polarons) and thermally activated charge carriers using a recently proposed statistical model to fit and understand the permittivity of CCTO measured at different frequencies over the whole temperature range accessible by our experiments. We found that the small permittivity at the lowest temperature is related to polaron frozen, while at higher temperatures the rapid increase is associated with the thermal excitation of polarons inducing the Maxwell-Wagner effect, and the final increase of the permittivity is attributed to the thermally activated conductivity. Such analysis enables us to separate the contributions from localized polarons and conductive charge carriers and quantify their activation energies.
The protective effect of HT on lung inflammation in ALI mice may be attributed to the promotion of autophagy, which is likely associated with the activation of the SIRT/MAPK signaling pathway. Importantly, this study provides new insight into the molecular mechanisms of HT and its therapeutic potential in the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
