Microwave Studies on Gadoliniium Barium Coppr Oxalate Crystals

Rare earth compounds are recognized for outstanding physical, magnetic, electrical and optical properties. Using cavity perturbation technique dielectric parameters of the sample such as complex permittivity and conductivity at microwave frequency were determined. Using X-ray diffraction study the crystalline nature of the sample was established. Photoconductivity studies of the Gadolinium Barium Copper Oxalate (GdBaCuOx) crystals revealed the negative photo conducting nature.
