Impedance Analysis of Microwave Processed Lead Nickel Titanate

Pb1-xNixTiO3 (PNT) with x varying between 0 and 1 is synthesised by sol-gel technique and then processed in microwave at 1000oC. The X-ray diffraction confirms the cubic structure in PNT. The electrical conduction and frequency response is investigated on the basis of impedance spectroscopy. PNT exhibited a negative temperature coefficient of resistance and non-Debye type of relaxation for all the recorded temperature.
