RF Dielectric Permittivity Sensing of Molecular Spin State Switching Using a Tunnel Diode Oscillator

Résumé

We introduce a novel approach to study the dielectric permittivity of spin crossover (SCO) molecular materials using a radio frequency (RF) resonant tunnel diode oscillator (TDO) circuit. By fabricating a parallel plate capacitor using SCO particles embedded into a polymer matrix as an integral part of the inductor (L) capacitor (C) LC tank of the TDO, we were able to extract the temperature dependence of the dielectric permittivity of frequency measurements for a wide selection of resonance values, spanning from 100 kHz up to 50 MHz, with great precision (less than 2 ppm) and in a broad temperature range. By making use of this simple electronic circuit to explore the frequency and temperature-dependent dielectric permittivity of the compound Fe[(Htrz)2(trz)](BF4), we demonstrate the reliability and resolution of the technique and show how the results compare with those obtained using complex instrumentation.
