Abstract
In order to investigate the conductivity phenomena below 400 degrees C in high-temperature-type oxide ion conductors of (Bi2O3)(1-x)(Y2O3)(x ) and (Bi2O3)(1-x)(Gd2O3)(x), impedance spectra were measured in the f requency range between 20 Hz and 1 MHz. The conductivity relaxation ph enomena observed were studied in terms of the electric modulus formula . The relaxation frequencies were found to show Arrhenius-type behavio r and the activation energies were in good agreement with those obtain ed by high temperature electric conductivity.
