The lacunary lead sodium vanadate apatite Pb{sub 8}Na{sub 2}(VO{sub 4}){sub 6} was synthesized by the solid-state reaction method. The compound was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, infrared (IR) absorption spectroscopy and Raman scattering spectroscopy. By comparing the effect of vanadate and phosphate ions on electrical properties, it was concluded that Pb{sub 8}Na{sub 2}(VO{sub 4}){sub 6} apatite is better conductor than Pb{sub 8}Na{sub 2}(PO{sub 4}){sub 6} apatite.
