摘要：Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is employed in a wide range of devices based on its excellent mechanical, optical, high thermal, piezoelectric, pyroelectric, and ferroelectric characteristics. In the current investigation, the pristine and neodymium oxide (Nd2O3) nanoparticles embedded polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) thick films were prepared via solution casting method. The Nd2O3 nanoparticles were synthesized via hydrothermal technique. The functional groups were identified in the nanocomposite films via infrared vibrational spectroscopy. It revealed the presence of ferroelectric β-phase in the annealed nanocomposite films. All-important optical constants have been determined for the first time via UV-VIS transmission spectroscopy for the nanocomposite films in the ferroelectric phase.
