Low-Frequency Relaxation Phenomena in α-LiIO3: The Nature and Role of Defects
2002
The lithium iodate ionic conduction in the polar c-axis direction is studied between 35 and 470 K for crystals grown in various conditions. So far, to separate processes induced by the nature of electrodes, the impedance spectroscopy technique had been used at room temperature with both metallic and ideally polarizable insulating electrodes, so that a relaxation of space charges was clearly identified. Here, the temperature dependence of the hopping ionic conductivity exhibits quite different activation energies well related to the growth conditions. Following low-temperature Raman and thermodynamic experiments, a new approach based on a vacancy diffusion mechanism is proposed. Experimental…
Dielectric characterization and ionic conductivity of α-LiIO3 crystals related to the growth conditions
2000
Abstract The dielectric response of α-LiIO3 has been studied at room temperature between 20 Hz and 1 MHz with various types of electrodes and compared to the results in the literature. By changing the sample thickness, a relaxation of space charges is clearly identified and the bulk ionic conductivity is deduced from the admittance diagram. Finally a comparison is carried out between chromium doped and undoped crystals obtained from acid and neutral growth solutions.
