Abstract
Recently, we carried out structural, optical and dielectric studies on micro-crystals of Oxypeucedanin (C16H14O5), isolated from the roots of plant Prangos pabularia (Mir et al. (2014) [3,4]). The obtained trend in frequency exponent (s) with frequency (ω) indicates that the universal dynamic response is followed by this compound. From optical absorption spectroscopy, the optical band gap (Eg) was estimated around 3.76eV and system is showing indirect allowed transition. Using Eg in certain relation of s, a close value of s (as much close obtained by fitting ac conductivity) was obtained. This method was further used for other similar systems and again same trend was obtained. So a general conclusion was made that the high transmitting wide band insulators or semiconductors may follow bipolaron hopping transport mechanism.
