IDS Online Workshop 2021 (IDS2021)

Broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) is a powerful experimental technique permitting to investigate the molecular dynamics of polar (and nonpolar) materials over a wide frequency range covering up to 16 decades, at different temperatures and pressures.

BDS finds an incredibly large number of applications in different fields of science and technology. The technique has, in fact, been successfully employed in studies on:

• molecular dynamics of liquids, liquid crystals, glasses, polymers and other disordered systems;
• charge transport in ionic glasses and liquids, semiconductors, organic crystals, ceramics, polymers;
• interfacial phenomena and confinement effects;
• non-linear electrical effects. BDS is also a very useful tool to monitor chemical reactions and phase transitions, e.g. crystallization, irreversible adsorption, tautomerization, etc.
