(A=tetrahedral, B=octahedral) the temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity over a temperature range of 100 to 700° C was investigated. Below 500° C the evolution of electrical conductivity might be closely associated with the position and nature of cations in the spinel lattice. The profile of the =f(t) curves show that the mechanism of electrical conduction in the temperature range 150 to 300° C can be explained in terms of the oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+ ions at octahedral sites. For the temperature range 300 to 400° C the conductivity involves the hopping of electrons from tetrahedral-site Mn2+ ions to tetrahedral-site Mn3+ ions. Above 500° C the oxidation of Mn2+ ions leads to an increase in conductivity with the generation of new phases of -Fe2O3, Mn2O3 and -(MnFe)2O3. |
