X-ray analysis shows that single-phase tetragonal structure of nanocrystalline PGT was formed after 15-h milling. The average crystallite size was found to be 17 nm. The frequency-dependent AC conductivity of the PGT ceramic was studied in the range 100°C to 525°C. Complex impedance analysis suggested the dielectric relaxation to be of non-Debye type. The activation energy was found to be 1.04 ev. The mechanism of charge transport in nanocrystalline PGT was successfully explained by correlated hopping model.}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Theoretical and Applied Physics}, publisher={OICC Press}, year={2023}, month={Nov.}, keywords={Complex impedance spectroscopy, Correlated barrier hopping, High energy ball milling, Nanocrystalline, Activation energy} }
