Abstract
In this work, synthesis (solid-state reaction) and characterizations (structural, microstructure, dielectric, conductivity, Raman & UV–vis) of a newly prepared lead-free complex perovskite SrLiFeWO6 are reported. Preliminary X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis suggests a tetragonal phase. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) micrograph and energy dispersive x-ray analysis (EDX) spectrum show the well-grown grains and sample purity. The study of Raman active lines determines the vibrational modes of the constituent molecules in the reported compound. Dispersed dielectric plots were explained by the Maxwell-Wagner polarization effect. The modulus study reveals the presence of a non-Debye type of relaxation. Jonscher's Power Law is fitted in ac conductivity data which follows a correlated barrier hopping mechanism. The direct bandgap energy of the studied sample is found to be 1.68 eV, which may be a good range for photovoltaic applications. For NTC thermistor applications, the analyzed thermistor constant and sensitivity factor are found to be within the permissible range. The idea of ferroelectric nature is opened up by the study of polarization versus electric field. The examination of current density versus electric field reveals that the sample has an ohmic character in the low region and a space charge-limited conduction (SCLC) mechanism in the higher field region.
