Abstract

The AC conductivity of the LiCaPO4 compound has been measured in the temperature range 634–755 K and the frequency range 300 Hz–5 MHz. The impedance data were fitted to an equivalent circuit consisting of series combination of grains, grains boundary, and electrode elements. Dielectric data were analyzed using complex electrical modulus M* at various temperatures. The modulus plots are characterized by the presence of two relaxation peaks thermally activated. The activation energies obtained from the analysis of M″ (0.90 eV) and conductivity data (0.94 eV) are very close, revealing an ionic hopping mechanism.
