Description

Here we report the formation of Mn doped nanocrystalline ZrO2 solid solution synthesized by high energy ball-milling method and the transport mechanism in the temperature range 298 KsTn. A transformation from small polaron hopping to correlated barrier hopping has been observed from the temperature dependence frequency exponent study. The contribution of grain boundary resistance is found to be dominating over the grain resistance in the ac conduction process.
