Notes:
The combination experiments of ac and dc (as the thermally stimulated polarization current) suggest that, by the dc process, there appeared the positive and negative ion-depleted region at the interface between glass bulk and the positive ion-depleted region near the anode. This may be the ionic analog for a p-n junction under reverse bias of a semiconductor. The relaxation in polarized glass would take place by the annihilation of the positive and negative ion-depleted region by back-diffusion of oxygen ions from the positive ion-depleted region and of sodium ions from the bulk.
