The present paper reports the electrical properties of pure and sodium modified copper tartrate single crystals. Single crystal growth of these materials followed by their characteristics has already been published somewhere else. Having achieved the growth of pure and sodium modified copper tartrate single crystals and established their basic characteristics, it is thought worthwhile to have an understanding of their electrical properties and their modification on replacement of some copper ions in the lattice of copper tartrate by sodium ions. The electrical properties are studied by measuring electrical conductivity in the temperature range from 80 to 300 K. The study reveals that conductivity is a function temperature in these crystals. Moreover both pure and modified copper tatrate single crystal are semiconducting but the conductivity of pure modified copper tatrate single crystal is more than that of pure a copper tatrate single crystal. The results have been explained in terms variable range hopping model.

We report the results of the resistivity measurement on La2-xSrxCuO4 nanoparticles with x = 0, 0.05, and 0.20 evaluated by the four-point probe method. The high resistivity value shows the predominance of the inter-grain part. The temperature dependence of the conductivity can be analyzed by variable range hopping model showing the charge carriers are formed by thermal activation. There is no superconducting behavior that could be observed in La2-xSrxCuO4 nanoparticles with x = 0.05 and 0.20.

Microstructures, electrical transport and magnetic properties of Sr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text] ceramics are investigated. With Co doping, the Sr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text] ceramics remain tetragonal structure while the grain size is decreased with doping. Magnetic moment is enhanced with Co doping and ferromagnetism is observed at low temperatures for Co-doped Sr[Formula: see text]TiO[Formula: see text]. The Sr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text] and Sr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text] show semiconductor-like transport properties, which can be well fitted by Mott variable range hopping model. The results will provide an effective route to synthesize Sr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text] ceramics as well as to investigate the physical properties.

We investigate the effects of Cr, Ru and Sn substitution on electrical resistivity and magnetoresistance property of polycrystalline samples La0.67Sr0.33Mn1-xBxO3(x = 0, 0.05; B= Ru, Cr and Sn) compounds. The value of M-I transition temperature (TP) decreases while resistivity increases with Cr, Ru and Sn substitution, moreover, the largest low-temperature magnetoresistance (MR %) is found at magnetic field dependent (Isotherm), which suggest that the spin-dependent scattering from internal grain regions is also responsible for the low-temperature MR %. Resistivity data have been fitted with the variable range hopping model to estimate the density of state at Fermi level. It was observed that the substitution of various transition metals in the Mn-site leads to a decrease in conductivity of the doped manganite samples, with conduction being controlled by the disorder induced localization of charge carriers.

The films of polyaniline–tin oxide (PAni–SnO2) nanocomposites were synthesized by chemical oxidative polymerization technique. These films were irradiated with 90 MeV O7+ ions at the fluences of 5×1010, 1×1011, 5×1011, and 1×1012 ions/cm2. X-ray diffraction studies show that microstrain and domain crystallite size of SnO2 nanoparticles in PAni matrix increase with the increase of ion fluence, resulting in highly ordered PAni–SnO2 nanocomposites. DC electrical conductivity is found to increase with the increase of fluence and conduction mechanism follows a quasi one-dimensional variable-range hopping model. AC electrical conductivity also increases with the increase of ion fluence and obeys correlated barrier-hopping model.

Thin films of perovskite manganite La0.9Hf0.1MnO3 (LHMO) have been grown on (100) SrTiO3 single-crystal substrates with different growth pressures by pulsed laser deposition. The different transport behaviors of films have been fitted by various models. The results clearly demonstrate that oxygen pressure is an efficient way to change the transport behaviors of LHMO films. All the transport behaviors observed in LHMO films can be better fitted by Mott’s variable range hopping model than the other two models.

The molecular dynamics of PVA/AgnP composites were studied by dielectric spectroscopy (DS) in the 20–300°C temperature range. Improper water elimination leads to misinterpretation of thermal relaxations in PVA composites in agreement with the previous report for pristine PVA. The evaporation of water and its plasticizing effect are more evident in pure PVA confirming the existence of strong interaction between OH groups of PVA chains and AgnP. Dry films show a single nonlinear VFT dependence (from 45°C until melting) associated to theα-relaxation and, therefore, to the glass transition phenomenon and from dielectric measurements, theTgof composites vary from 88°C for pristine PVA to 125°C for PVA/AgnP (5 wt%). Below 45°C, dry films exhibit a single Arrhenius behavior showing a 3D hopping conductivity as explained based on the variable range hopping model. PVA/AgnP composites have higher conductivity compared to pristine PVA, and it increases as AgnP weight percent increases. Finally, DMA measurements support the statement that a secondary relaxation was erroneously assigned as the glass transition of PVA and composites in previous reports.

We present here the electrical transport properties of RFe 1-x Ni x O 3 (x ≤ 0.5) where R = Nd , Sm and Gd and the correlation between these systems. The resistivity increases as the rare ion is changed from Nd to Sm . The resistivity increases from the magnitude of the order of 103 to 106 Ωcm at lower temperatures and from 10 to 105 Ωcm as the temperature is increased. Also, the resistivity decreases as the concentration of Ni is increased within the ensemble showing a semiconducting behavior. The resistivity data is fitted with the Greaves Variable Range Hopping model which fits in the intermediate range of temperatures. There is decrease in gap parameter, increase in conductivity and increase in the density of states at Fermi level which clarify that the correlation length in the conducting network increases with the increase in Ni substitution. The Debye temperature decreases as the Ni concentration increases and follows the same trend as the rare earth ion is replaced.
