Abstract

The effects of annealing on B2O3-contained ZnO varistors with particular emphasis on the degradation behavior, nonlinear coefficient, trap density, donor density, and Schottky energy barrier were investigated. The thermal stability of ZnO varistors was considerably improved by the thermal annealing process.
