Abstract
Electric and dielectric measurements have been used to study the superionic conductivity and the ferroelectricity respectively in Rb0.8(NH4)0.2HSO4 single crystal. This material presents a high level of conductivity at high temperature. Activation energies were determined from the temperature dependence of the alternating-current conductivity in the regions 440-560 K and beyond 560 K; they are respectively 0.15 and 0.10 eV. The dielectric measurements show an intense anomaly at 285 K indicating a ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition. This phase transition is accompanied by a significant dispersion of the real part of the dielectric constant in the frequency region investigated, in accordance with the high level of conductivity of this material.
