Zusammenfassung:	The fast ionic conductor Li2AlZr[PO4]3 has been prepared by the solid state reaction method. The formation of the compound is confirmed by XRD and FTIR analysis. The system has been subjected to ac conductivity measurements in the temperature range 523 to 623K with aluminium as blocking electrodes over a frequency range of 42Hz to 5MHz. The conductivity is found to be 1X10-5Scm-1 at 623K. The activation energy calculated from the Arrhenius plot is 0.83eV. The conductance spectrum reveals a d.c. plateau and a dispersive region that suggest the correlated hopping motion of ions. Thus, the conduction mechanism in Li2AlZr[PO4]3 may be due to the hopping of charge carriers.
