Synthesis of Sr Doped HoCrO3 Solid Solution Systems and Their Electrical Properties Synthesis of Sr Doped HoCrO3 Solid Solution Systems and Their Electrical Properties

Ho1-xSrxCrO3 systems, with perovskite structures, were synthesized for x=0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 at 1300℃ under atmospheric pressure. The results of X-ray analysis reveals that these prepared systems forms orthorhombic structures. Also, the HoCrO3 systems which were doped with Sr cations on the site of Ho cations, exhibited a linear increase in their cell volume. It was found that the lattice parameter and reduced volume increased as the doping level of Sr2+ increased. From the measurements of D.C conductivity, the activation energy obtained from the conductivity dependence on temperature was 0.18 eV. The conduction mechanism would appear to be the hopping model of electron conduction.
