Abstract

It is shown that capacitors based on stabilized zirconia with gold nanoparticles exhibit nonlinear properties: the admittance of these capacitors depends on the amplitude of the control voltage, test-signal frequency, and temperature. The nonlinearity is due to electron capture by traps generated during nanoparticle formation. The possibility of determining the trap parameters by measuring the capacitor admittance has been established.
