Abstract
The electronic conductivity in equilibrated with either chlorine or silver was measured at temperatures between 100° and 425°C. The measurements were carried out for crystals containing various amounts of divalent cationic impurities. A clear distinction could be made between a native Frenkel disorder controlled region and an impurity controlled conductivity region. The emf of the cell was found to agree with the value calculated from tabulated thermodynamic data. Combination of our results with published data for the band gap and the chlorine induced absorption in shows that the latter stems from self‐trapped rather than from free holes.
