Abstract

Silver-based quaternary glasses were prepared by splat quenching technique. X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry were done for confirming their amorphous nature. The conductivity of the glasses was measured in the frequency range from 1 Hz to 32 MHz from room temperature to 373 K. Conductivity data, which obeys the Arrhenius type behavior, shows minimum at 30 mol% Ag2O, suggesting that the conductivity mechanisms are different above and below these two regions. The minimum in conductivity is accompanied by an inverse behavior of activation energy. Experimental data suggests that a polaron hopping mechanism operates in the electronically conducting domain of 20 ≤ × ≤ 30, and an interstitial pair mechanism operates in the ionically conducting domain of 35 ≤ × ≤ 55.
