“…2. The XRD study confirms the formation of hexagonal system of ZnO [12,13]. All diffraction peaks coincide with the earlier reported values, where lattice parameters a = 32420 Å and c = 51760 Å were comparable with the ones carried out in [12].…”

“…Because the nonlinear current–voltage characteristics of varistor ceramics are controlled by grain‐boundary features, 1,3,4,20–22 it is necessary to point out that in the present work, we found several types of junctions in the microstructure of (Co, Nb, Sm)‐doped SnO 2 ‐based varistor: direct SnO 2 –SnO 2 junction, triple junction rich in cobalt and grain‐boundary phase rich in Sm. The direct SnO 2 –SnO 2 junction with transition metal segregated in it suggests this is the main kind of junction controlling the overall nonohmic properties 17,21,37 .…”

“…The role of Co Sn ″, Sm Sn ′ , V Sn ″″, and V Sn ″ defects (due to the reduction of Sn 4+ into Sn 2+ in the interstitial sites) would be related to the increase of the oxygen species adsorbed at the grain‐boundary interface, causing a decrease in the conductivity of the grain boundary by the donation of electrons to the O 2 adsorbed at the grain boundary. The adsorbed oxygen at the grain boundary captures electrons from the negatively charged defects at the grain boundary and thus stays at the interface 3,4,33 . Based on the models for ZnO‐based varistors proposed by Gupta and Carlson, 47 Bueno et al 48 proposed a model for SnO 2 ‐based varistors.…”
