Abstract

Low frequency dielectric properties of polycrystalline anthrone and anthrone/iodine charge-transfer complex are presented. Polycrystalline anthrone proves to be a typical low-loss material. Iodization of anthrone pellets leads to a remarkable change in dielectric properties. Dielectric response of anthrone/iodine CT complex shows comparatively strong low frequency dispersion. The change in dielectric properties proves to be reversible to great extend as removing of iodine by heating at 373 K for a few hours almost completely restores the dielectric values of a virgin anthrone sample.
