Complex electrical-conductivity experimental data sets for the interfacial amorphous phase in copper-core-copper-oxide-shell nanostructured composites have been analyzed using two Kohlrausch-related frequency response models recently developed for analysis of the dispersive electrical response of conductive materials. Such analysis has been carried out for both the precursor (herein referred to as the reference) glass as well as the glass in which the core-shell nanostructure was developed after suitable heat treatment. Complex nonlinear-least-squares data fitting at each temperature employed composite Kohlrausch models that included electrode effects. Because of the lack of sufficient high-frequency data, it was necessary to use fixed, rather than free, values of the shape parameter beta1 of the model. On the basis of topological considerations, its values were set at 13 and 23 for the reference glass and the core-shell structured glass, respectively. The activation energies of resistivity for the reference and the treated glasses were found to have values of about 2 and 0.4 eV, respectively, indicating two different mechanisms of electrical conduction. A blocking-electrode measurement on the reference glass indicated the presence of an electronic as well as an ionic component of the electrical conductivity, with the ionic part dominating at the temperatures for which the present analyses were carried out.
