Abstract

In the present study, Li x AlZr[PO4]3 (x = 1.8, 2.0, 2.2) has been prepared by the Pechini-type polymerizable precursor method, and structural and electrical analyses have been performed. Formation of the compound has been confirmed from X-ray diffraction pattern. Vibrational analysis has been performed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Ion transport mechanism has been analyzed using the AC impedance technique. Electrical characterization reveals that the maximum conductivity (4.4 × 10−5S cm−1) has been observed for the sample Li2.2AlZr[PO4]3 at 673K.
