| Abstract |
| This communication focuses on newly developed glassy electrolytes composed of
Na2O-PbCl2
-ZnO-V2O5
, examining their electrical transport behaviour at ambient
temperature. The direct current (DC) conductivity of these materials has been
extensively analyzed using variable range hopping models. DC conductivity and
hopping frequency have been computed based on the best-fitted plots of the
experimental data. The DC conductivity was assessed at various concentrations while
maintaining constant temperatures. Additionally, the variation of conductivity data
with reciprocal temperature highlights the dynamic behaviour of charge carriers
through hopping conduction in sodium oxide-doped glassy systems. Higher electronphonon interaction coupling constant reveals that the present system involves a strong
electron-phonon interaction for polaron hopping. The microstructure of the asdeveloped system has been investigated and correlated with transport behaviour.
The present study is expected to be a potential one not only for exploring the nature
of hopping/migration frequency of Na+
ions for NIBs application but also for academic
interest. |
