The structural and electrophysical characteristics of a number of solid solutions of layered oxides of the perovskite-type Bi7[Formula: see text]Wx[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) are studied. According to X-ray powder diffraction data, all the compounds studied are single-phase and have the structure of Aurivillius phases ([Formula: see text]) with a rhombic crystal lattice (space group I2[Formula: see text]cm, [Formula: see text]). Changes in tetragonal and rhombic distortions of perovskite-like layers in compounds were considered depending on their chemical composition. The temperature dependences of the relative permittivity [Formula: see text] (T) were measured. It was shown that the Curie temperature [Formula: see text] of the perovskite-type oxides Bi7[Formula: see text]Wx[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) linearly decreases with increasing parameter [Formula: see text]. The activation energies of charge carriers were obtained in different temperature ranges. It was found that there are three temperature regions with very different activation energies due to the different nature of the charge carriers in the studied compounds. The effect of substitution of [Formula: see text] ions by [Formula: see text] ions is investigated. It was found that for a number of compounds, the substitution of niobium ions by vanadium ions led to an increase in the dielectric constant and a decrease in the dielectric loss tangent.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
