Abstract
A single phase perovskite, YxSr1−xTi0.6Fe0.4O3-δ(x=0.06-0.09), was fabricated at 1350°C in air by sol-gel method. The effects of Y-and Fe-doping into SrTiO3on phase structure, electrical conductivity, ionic conductivity and its impedance behavior were investigated. The optimized Y0.07Sr0.93Fe0.4Ti0.6O3-δsample exhibits an electrical conductivity of 0.135 S·cm-1at 800 °C. Y-doping decreases the migration energy for oxygen ions, leading to a significant increase in ionic conductivity. The ionic conductivity of Y0.09Sr0.91Ti0.6Fe0.4O3-δsample varies from 0.0052 S· cm-1at 600°C to 0.02 S·cm-1at 800°C. Impedance characteristics over a wide frequency range of 0.01Hz-100 KHz reveal that the resistance of ionic conduction is predominantly influenced by grain boundary, the relaxation time of which decreases with increase of Y-doping amount.
