Abstract
Measurements of a.c. and d.c. electrical conductivity in crystals of nickel tungstate, in the temperature range 300 to 1100 K, are presented. NiWO4 is found to be a semiconductor with a band gap of 2.10 eV. The nature of the electrical conduction is discussed in the light of various conduction models.
