The electrical conductivity of the as-prepared samples with and without post-heat-treatment was measured and displayed in Fig.4(a). Very low electrical conductivity with magnitude of around 0.0005 S/cm is obtained for the as-cold-sintered ceramics, comparable with that prepared at 126℃ by Funahashi[14].A post-heat-treatment at 300℃ in Ar atmosphere could dramatically improve the electrical conductivity to about 1.5 S/cm. The electrical conductivity increases continuously by increasing post-heat-treating temperature and reaches a maximum of 16.4 S/cm at 500℃, which is almost 3×104 times higher than that of as-cold-sintered ones. The electrical conductivity is relatively stable by further increasing the post-heat-treating temperature, in the range of 12.0-16.0 S/cm. However, the sample post-heat-treated at 500℃ in air possesses low electrical conductivity with value only around 0.5 S/cm, much higher than the as-cold-sintered ones and lower than those treated in Ar atmosphere.
