Abstract

The preparation of two series of BaO-V2O5 and V2O5-B2O5 glasses and their results for electrical conductivity, density and molar volume are reported. Conduction in the BaO-V2O5 glass system is electronic. Trapping levels are involved in the transport process and the conduction is believed to be due to hopping of carriers between localized states. Density and molar volume data suggest a compact structure of these glasses.
