Electrical Properties of Double Perovskite LaPbFeTiO6 Synthesized by Sol-Gel Method

Abstract The double perovskite structure is interesting for many researches in various fields of physics and their technological applications. The LaPbFeTiO6 (LPFTO) compound is a very important for many technologies because it has dielectric and electrical properties. It has made an attractive semiconductor material for the electronic field, such as the realization of filters or capacitors. In this work, LaPbFeTiO6 was prepared by the sol-gel method.The structural, morphological and electrical properties of this sample were studied using different techniques. X-ray diffraction analysis, the sample crystallized in the rhombohedral system with space group R C. The surface of the sample and the average grain size were examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The electrical conductivity and dielectric characterizations were studied as a function of frequency and temperature (200-380K) by impedance spectroscopy. Indeed, the dielectric constant increases with increasing temperature. The AC conductivity obeys the Jonscher power law. The activation energy obtained from the complex impedance and the conductivity are close. The frequency dependence of the electrical impedance shows the existence of a relaxation phenomenon.
