Preliminary results of time-resolved nonlinear dielectric effect (NDE) studies in the liquid, glassforming epoxy resin EPON 5 are presented. For all tested temperatures the NDE response of the sample parametrizes the stretched exponential function with exponent $\ensuremath{\beta}=0.38\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.05.$ The temperature evolution of relaxation times can be parametrized by means of the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann function ${\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\mathrm{NDE}}={\ensuremath{\tau}}_{0}^{\mathrm{NDE}}\mathrm{exp}{(D}_{\mathrm{NDE}}{T}_{0}^{\mathrm{NDE}}/T\ensuremath{-}{T}_{0}^{\mathrm{NDE}}),$ with ${\ensuremath{\tau}}_{0}^{\mathrm{NDE}}\ensuremath{\approx}0.3\mathrm{s},$ ${D}_{E}\ensuremath{\approx}1.2,$ and ${T}_{0}^{\mathrm{NDE}}\ensuremath{\approx}261\mathrm{K}.$ The latter value is, within the limit of the experimental error, equal to the glass temperature ${T}_{g}.$ The relaxation of ``nonlinear'' changes of the dielectric permittivity induced by a strong, steady electric field may be associated with the dynamic equilibrium of glassy clusters and the surrounding fluidlike region.read more

Nonlinear Dielectric Response and Thermodynamic Heterogeneity in Liquids
Ranko Richert,Susan Weinstein +1 more
TL;DR: If large amplitude time-dependent fields are applied to a sample that displays relaxational modes, some energy of the external field is absorbed by the slow degrees of freedom and implies that dielectric and thermal time constants are locally correlated in viscous liquids.

TL;DR: What insight can be gained from the nonlinear responses that are not available from dielectric relaxation results obtained in the linear regime are emphasized.

Universal critical-like scaling of dynamic properties in symmetry-selected glass formers.
TL;DR: The supporting evidence was obtained on the basis of the distortion-sensitive, derivative-based analysis of tau(T) data for a rodlike liquid crystalline compound, orientationally disordered crystals, a colloidal nanofluid system, polymer melt, oligomeric liquid, and low molecular weight glass formers.
