Popis: Different compositions of lithium aluminum phosphate glasses were prepared by melt quenching technique. The best bulk conductivity achieved by the sample G3, (28 mol% of lithium oxide). Further, the investigation extended by crystallizing the G3 sample at different temperatures, 200 °C (GC200), 300 °C(GC300), 400 °C (GC400), and 500 °C (GC500). The electrical measurements for all the glasses and glass ceramics were carried out in the frequency range of 1–105 Hz and at a temperature range of 393–513 K by the impedance spectroscopy. The variation of conductivity with frequency of the samples was explained in the light of different valency states of aluminum ions. AC conductivity data are fitted to a power law equation. Scaled spectra for ac conductivity and modulus data suggested that the present glass samples follow temperature independent conductivity distribution relaxation mechanism.
