Abstract
The electrical conductivity of Ag8SnS6-[(AgBr)4 · SnS2] alloys in the Ag8SnS6-Ag2SnS3-AgBr system has been measured by a dc probe method between 210 and 380 K. The non-Arrhenius behavior of their conductivity is attributed to the fact that electrical and mass transport processes in these alloys involve both silver cations and bromide anions.
