Abstract: | Electrical conductivity, thermoelectric power and static dielectric constant of iron (II) molybdate have been measured in the temperature range 300 to 1000 K on pressed pellets of polycrystalline sample. It has been found that FeMoO4 is a p-type semiconductor with energy gap 4.1 eV. Different conduction mechanisms have been found below and above 700 K. Below 700 K conduction is due to a small polaron hopping mechanism and above 700 K conduction is due to large polarons as well as normal band conduction mechanism. Activation energy W, 0
(T) and charge carrier mobility have been estimated in the two temperature ranges 300 to 700 K and 700 to 1000 K. Dielectric constant increases slowly with temperature up to 700 K and above 700 K, it increases exponentially with temperature. |
