Abstract

The ternary system Zn 1-x Cd x O (x = 0.00, 0.01, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15) samples have been synthesized by the solid solution route. The synthesized samples were characterized by their electrical, magnetic and dielectric properties. The resistivity of the samples decreases with increase of Cd concentration and temperature, respectively. The activation energy at 339 K varies from 0.426 to 0.146 eV. The ternary system possesses a negative mass susceptibility having pair of electrons confirmed by the magnetic mass susceptibility measurement. The dielectric constant of the samples increases with increase of Cd and decreases with frequency initially and then remains constant.
