This study investigated the structural, electrical conductivity, and dielectric relaxation properties of yttrium (III) oxide. The material was found to have a crystalline cubic phase and a nearly constant loss mechanism. The complex conductivity of yttrium (III) oxide was found to increase with increasing frequency.
Yttrium (III) oxide or so-called diyttrium trioxide (Y2O3) is an excellent candidate ceramic material for optoelectronic applications. Structural, electrical conductivity, and dielectric relaxation properties of bulk yttrium (III) oxide were studied. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicate that the yttrium (III) oxide com-pound has a crystalline cubic phase. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) technique was used to ascertain the chemical structure of the yttrium (III) oxide compound. Impedance spectroscopy was used to analyze frequency-dependent electrical properties as a function of temperature in the range of 303-423 K and frequency range of 0.1 Hz-2 MHz. Impedance spectroscopy parameters such as dielectric constant, dielectric loss, loss factor, electric modulus, and complex impedance of the yttrium (III) oxide compound were studied. The Nyquist plot describes the complex impedance of the yttrium (III) oxide for different temperatures. The universal Jonscher's power law was used for the analysis of the complex electrical conductivity of the yttrium (III) oxide compound. It is found that the real (sigma ') and imaginary (sigma'') parts of the complex conductivity increase with increasing frequency. The exponent frequency (s) equals unity, which confirms that the predominant conduction mechanism is a nearly constant loss (NCL) mechanism. DFT/TD-DFT studies using B3LYP/LanL2DZ level of theory were used to provide comparable theoretical data and electronic energy gap of HOMO -> LUMO. (c) 2022 The Authors.
