Abstract

The single crystals of Gd2(MoO4)3 and Tb2(MoO4)3 show very similar Electrical Transport properties. Typical d.c. conductivity results in cooling cycle are given in temperature range 650 to 1075 K. Both these solids reveal intrinsic conduction above 880 K. In temperature range 650 to 805 K the conduction arises due to localized impurities. It is expected that some instabilities in the phases of these crystals are effective from 805 to 880 K. Thermo-electric power in both these solids is highly unstable and is too small to be measured properly. The results are discussed using band model and hopping mechanism.
