Abstract: Here, the effects of zinc oxide (ZnO) on impedance and dielectric properties of the ZnO incorporated iron borate (Fe3BO6) glass-ceramics were studied using impedance spectroscopy in a wide range of frequency (1 Hz – 1 MHz) and temperature (25 °C–250 °C). With ZnO addition, the ε′ and tanδ values were reduced significantly, the strength of the relaxation process also decreased, along with a decrease in conductivity. Activation energies associated with modulus and conductivity plots suggest that similar type of charge carriers was responsible for the relaxation and conduction processes. The analysis of both complex impedance and conductivity show the negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR) behavior of the samples. The thermistor constant B-values of 5ZnO and 10ZnO were found to be 7223 and 7088 respectively. The study of the NTCR properties suggests a potential candidate for thermistor applications. © 2021 Korean Physical Society
