Abstract This paper investigates the dielectric properties of (Na0.5K0.5Bi)0.5TiO3 crystal at intermediate frequencies (1kHz $\leq$ f $\leq$ 1MHz) in the temperature range of 30--560℃. A pronounced high-temperature diffuse dielectric anomaly has been observed. This dielectric anomaly is shown to arise from a Debye-like dielectric dispersion that slows down following an Arrhenius law. The activation energy $E_{\tau}$ obtained in the fitting process is about 0.69eV. It proposes that the dielectric peak measured at low frequency above 400℃ is not related to the phase transition but to a space-charge relaxation.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
