CNT and SiO2 nanomaterial-based 135ºC thermostable fractional capacitors (α > 0.3) for radiation detection in nuclear power plant
摘要
This study investigates the design, fabrication, and characterization of two-terminal fractional capacitors (FCs) with orders exceeding 0.35 and exceptional thermal stability. To achieve this, a nanocomposite of carbon nanotubes and AD-SiO₂ nanoparticles dispersed in epoxy is used as a dielectric. The devices exhibit fractional orders (0.3 < α < 0.85) and maintain stable fractance from − 15 °C to 136 °C, far exceeding the thermal limits of CNT-only FCs (− 15 °C to 40 °C) and those of capacitors reported in the GM-tube literature. This FC (α = 0.85,
