Abstract

The scattering of thermal phonons (T = 2.3–3.8 K) in ZnO single crystals and related 97.5ZnO + 0.5Bi2O3 + 0.5Co3O4 + 0.5MnO2 + 1Sb2O3 (mol %) ceramics has been studied. It is established that the transport characteristics of phonons with thermal frequencies in ceramics at liquid-helium temperatures are determined by the presence of Co2+ ions in ZnO grains. A model of phonon transport in ZnO-based ceramics is proposed that takes into account the electron states of cobalt. The energy of the corresponding level is estimated at Δ ≈ 5 K. Manifestations of the ferromagnetic effect are revealed.
