Abstract
The charge transport properties of ''BaCuO2'' with 88:90 (Ba:Cu) catio n ratio were characterized by thermopower, electrical conductivity and ionic transport number measurements in a wide range of temperature an d oxygen partial pressure conditions. The nature of carriers is always represented by small polarons due to self-trapping of the electronic holes generated by the oxygen non-stoichiometry equilibrium. Some anom alies in carrier mobility as ct function of temperature are shown not to be related to incomplete ionization of oxygen atoms on interstitial sites.
