Abstract

Double perovskites are currently being intensively studied thanks to their highly relevant technological potential as materials with manifold properties. This contribution aims to the preparation of double perovskite oxide material BiBaFeZnO6, which is synthesized by the sol–gel method. The structural study shows that the sample is single phase and crystallizes in the rhombohedral system with the R\(\stackrel{-}{3}\)C space group. In addition, impedance spectroscopy was used to study the dielectric behavior of materials and the different physical phenomena at temperature range from 200 to 380 K and in a frequency range up to 1 MHz. The Nyquist diagram at different temperatures reveals the behavior of flat semi-circular, which has been modeled by an equivalent circuit including an RC element and an RQ element. The frequency-dependent behavior of Z” shows a peak inferring a relaxation. The electrical conductivity was determined by the Jonscher’s law, and the activation energy were calculated from modulus or DC conductivity. The obtained results have confirmed that the non-overlapping small polaron tunneling model (NSPT) is the appropriate model to explain the electrical conduction phenomenon.
