Abstract
Due to the variation of charge transport characteristics by introduction of nanostructured filler, the conduction and dielectric breakdown properties of nanodielectrics are poorly understood. This work studies on the effect of deep trap on the dc conduction and breakdown properties of nanodielectrics. X-ray diffraction technique is conducted to study the crystallization behavior of LDPE/Al2O3 nanocomposites. Thermally stimulated current (TSC) is applied to measure the trap parameters of specimens. Breakdown strength and volume resistivity are also measured. The results indicate that small amount of nanoalumina enhances the crystallinity, volume resistivity and breakdown strength, and decreases the crystallite size. The TSC results show that the deep trap level and density both increase at low nanoparticle loading samples (
