Abstract
The dielectric contribution to the electric response of yttria fully-stabil ized zirconia (YFSZ) single crystals was included by using the Kohlrausch-W illiams-Watts step response Function. The results obtained can be explained by assuming an elastic coupling between a hopping vacancy and the lattice approximated by a continuous elastic media. The wavelength for this elastic coupling was in all cases at least 190 times the unit-cell parameters.
