Abstract

The polycrystalline materials [Li2Pb2R2W2Ti4Nb4O30 (R = Y, Eu)] of tungsten bronze structural family have been synthesized using a high-temperature solid-state reaction (mixed-oxide) technique. Study of electrical properties (impedance, modulus, conductivity, etc.,) of the materials exhibits a strong correlation between their bulk, grain boundary and electrical parameters. The value and nature of temperature dependence of ac conductivity clearly exhibits that the materials have thermally activated transport properties of Arrhenius-type.
