Abstract
The dc conductivity and the conductivity relaxation of ZrF4-BaF2-YF3-LiF glasses with varying BaF2 and LiF contents have been studied in the temperature range from 300 K to just below the glass transition temperature and in the frequency range 10 Hz-2 MHz. It has been observed that the conductivity shows a minimum and the activation energy a maximum at ~20 mol% LiF content. The glass decoupling index also shows a minimum at the same composition and has been associated with the minimum of the conductivity. The small variation of the relaxation parameter β for the low LiF content is consistent with the weak coupling model. The relaxation parameter β exhibits a minimum at a composition different from that of the conductivity, resulting from the competitive influence of Ba2+ and Li+ cations on the ionic mobility.
