Abstract

Electrical conductivities of Al₂O₃/A1 composite synthesized by directed oxidation of an aluminum alloy, and sintered Al₂O₃–4% MgO are measured. The high conductivity of the Al₂O₃/A1 composite compared to sintered Al₂O₃–4% MgO is shown as proof of the presence of continuous metal channels in the composite. Furthermore, the conductivity data are used to determine the activation energy for the diffusion of the dominant charge carrier in the oxide matrix.
