Abstract
The electrical conductuctivity measurements have been made on polycrystalline samples of various compositions in the $MgO-TiO_2$ system from 600 to $1100^{\circ}C$ under $Po_2$'s of $10^{-8}\;to\;10^{-1}$atm. Plots of log ${\sigma}$ vs. 1/T at constant $Po_2$ are found to be linear with the inflections, and the activation energies are 1.94eV for the intrinsic range and 0.48eV for the extrinsic range, respectively. The log ${\sigma}$ vs. log $Po_2$ curves are found to be linear at constant temperature, and the conductivity dependences of $Po_2$ are closely approximated by ${\sigma}\;{\alpha}\;Po_2^{-1/6}$ for the extrinsic and ${\sigma}\;{\alpha}\;Po_2^{-1/4}$ for the intrinsic range, respectively. The dominant defects in this system are believed to be oxygen vacancy for the extrinsic and $Ti^{3-}$ interstitial for the intrinsic range. The conduction mechanisms in both the extrinsic and the intrinsic ranges are proposed by the results of the electrical conductivity dependence on the oxygen partial pressure. Polaron model was suggested in the extrinsic region by the conductivity dependences of temperature and $Po_2$.
0.35. 0.75 및 1.25mol% $MgO-TiO_2$계의 전기전도도가 $600{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$ 및 $10^{-8}{\sim}10^{-1}$ atm의 산소분압하에서 측정되었다. 일정한 산소분압하에서 $log{\sigma}$ vs. 1/T은 두 온도구간에서 직선관계를 보였으며 직선의 기울기로 부터 계산된 활성화에너지는 본성 영역과 외성 영역에서 각각 1.94eV 및 0.48eV이다. $log\;{\sigma}$ vs log $Po_2$는 본성 영역에서 ${\sigma}\;{\alpha}\;$Po_2^{-1/6}$이며 외성 영역에서 ${\sigma}\;{\alpha}\;$Po_2^{-1/4}$이다. 이 계의 결함구조는 외성 영역에서 $V\"{o}$이며 본성 영역에서 $Ti^3$.로 제안되었다. 특히 외성 영역에서 polaron model이 ${\sigma}$의 T 및 p 의존성으로 부터 규명되었다.
