Electrical conductivity studies of Bi{sub 2}O{sub 3}-Li{sub 2}O-ZnO-B{sub 2}O{sub 3} glasses
- Department of Physics, Osmania University, Hyderabad (India)
Highlights: Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer Ac conductivity measurements and its analysis has been performed on Bi{sub 2}O{sub 3}-Li{sub 2}O-ZnO-B{sub 2}O{sub 3} glasses in the temperature range 30-300 Degree-Sign C and a frequency range of 100 Hz to 1 MHz. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer The dc conductivity increased and the activation energy decreased with lithium content. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer The frequency dependent conductivity has been analyzed employing conductivity and modulus formalisms. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer The onset of conductivity relaxation shifts towards higher frequencies with temperature. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer The Almond-West conductivity formalism is used to explain the scaling behavior, and the relaxation mechanism is independent of temperature. -- Abstract: Ac conductivity measurements and its analysis has been performed on xBi{sub 2}O{sub 3}-(65-x)Li{sub 2}O-20ZnO-15B{sub 2}O{sub 3} (0 {<=} x {<=} 20) glasses in the temperature range 30-300 Degree-Sign C and a frequency range of 100 Hz to 1 MHz. The dc conductivity increased and the activation energy decreased with lithium content. The frequency dependent conductivity has been analyzed employing conductivity and modulus formalisms.
