The Study of Electrical Characteristic of ZnO Varistor with Voronoi Network

보로노이 네트워크를 이용한 ZnO 바리스터의 전기적 특성 연구

A microstructure of realistic ZnO varistor was constructed by Voronoi network and studied cia computer simulation. The grain size and standard deviation was calculated with new method and have good agreement with experimental data. In this network, the grain boundary conditions of three different type are randomly distributed. The three electrical boundary conditions . (1) type A junctions (high nonlinearity); (2) type B junctions (low nonlinearity); (3) type C junctions (linear with low-resistivity) are fitted from the experimental measurement. The electrical properties were studied by varying the boundary type concentration and the disorder parameter d. The shape of I-V characteristic curve of the network is affected by the type concentration and the disorder parameter has an effect on the double inflected region.
