摘要
We use a recently developed scanning, probe technique to image with high spatial resolution the injection and extraction of charge around individual surface-modified aluminum oxide nanoparticles embedded in a low density polyethylene (LDPE) matrix. We find that the experimental are consistent with a simple band structure Model:where localized electronic states are available in the band gap (trap states) in; the vicinity of the nanoparticles. This work offers experimental support to a previously proposed mechanism for enhanced insulating properties of nanocomposite LDPE and provides a powerful experimental tool to further investigate such properties.
