Abstract The polymorphic phase transitions of undoped and chromium doped α-LiIO3 crystals have been investigated by means of DTA experiments at slow heating rates and electrical measurements vs temperature and frequency. Upon heating the well known α ⇔ γ ⇒ β sequence appears to be influenced by the sample's morphology, acidity of the growing solution and doping. Dielectric response at room temperature is close to the type “superposition of d.c. ionic conductivity and dipolar response”. We describe the thermal behavior of conductivity along the c polar axis at three frequencies. Electrical measurements also highlight a higher value of ionic conductivity and a less destructive transition for doped crystals.
