The original version of this article was published with error in affiliation details of Dr. Inas K. Battisha and few other errors. These have been corrected by publishing this correction article.
The correct affiliation details of Dr. Inas K. Battisha2 & 3 are given below:
2Solid State Physics Department, Physics Research Institute, National Research Centre, Dokki, Box Number 12622, Giza, Egypt
3Electric and Dielectric Measurement Unit of Materials, Physics Research Institute, National Research Centre, Dokki, Box Number 12622, Giza, Egypt
In addition to the above, under Sect. 3.6 Dielectric properties, Fig. 9 has been kept as in the original version. However, the sub-sections of Fig. 9g to j have been added.
The frequency dependence of (σac) at room temperature for (a) Z, (b) Z02F, (c) Z10F, (d) Z20F, (g) Z25F, (h) Z30F, (i) Z35F and (j) Z40F, respectively, sintered at 600 °C for 6 h
Due to the above change, under Sect. 3.6 Dielectric properties, starting with the paragraph “The variation of A.C. electrical conductivity…”, the sentence starting from “An opposite dominant trend”… up to the end of the paragraph, before the reference [60], need to be replaced with the below text:
Figure 9 shows the A.C. conductivity (σac) for (a) Z, (b) Z02F, (c) Z10F, (d) Z20F, (g) Z25F, (h) Z30F, (i) Z35F and (j) Z40F, respectively, at room temperature, sintered at 600 °C. The increase in Ac conductivity (σac) caused by increasing Fe ion concentrations is due to an increase in the number of charge carriers initiated by the Fe ions embedded interstitially and/or substitutionally in the ZnO lattice. Thus, the doping of Fe ions into the ZnO lattice crystals leads to the formation of charge carriers through a mechanism involving the replacement of a divalent (Zn2+) cation by a trivalent one (Fe3+) paired with a free electron (e−), responsible for the increased conductivity [60].
Figure 9 with the caption for higher Fe concentrations up to 40 mol% has been given.
