Abstract
Ceramic (polycrystalline) samples with the nominal composition of Pr6–x WO12–1.5x (x = 0.5; 0.75; 1; 1.25) are obtained using solid–phase synthesis. Samples with x = 0.5 and 0.75 are single–phase. The temperature dependences of conductivity (900…200°C) are measured in the atmospheres of dry (\({P_{{H_2}O}}\) = 10–4 atm) and humid (\({P_{{H_2}O}}\) = 3 × 10–2 atm) air and also when \({P_{{O_2}}}\) was varied from 0.21 to 10–5 atm. The dependence of conductivity on \({P_{{O_2}}}\) is close to linear and is determined by the equation of logσ ≈ const + n · log\({P_{{O_2}}}\) (where n ≈ 1/10 at 900°C) with a positive slope characteristic for hole conductivity. The EMF technique is used to determine the temperature dependence (900…200°C) of ion transport numbers t(ion) (0…0.02). Hole conductivity prevails. Activation energies of hole conductivity are calculated: (0.39…0.43 eV).
