摘 要：The great deal of novel rare earth based semiconducting lanthanum barium copper oxide La3Ba3Cu6O14（LBC-336） were synthesized by low temperature molten salt synthesis（MSS） due to "dissolution precipitation mechanism".Here,we reported one pot synthesis of product by direct precipitation from a molten KOH-NaOH mixture at 450 ℃ and single phase La3Ba3Cu6O14 with tetragonal crystal system.The particle size of 140-200 nm were observed in both PXRD pattern and HRSEM micrographs and it showed a cubic morphology.The semiconducting nature was extracted from various parameters like optical band gap（1.8 eV）,AC conductivity（0.70 eV）,DC conductivity（0.70 eV）,and also Hall effect parameters like the charge carrier concentration values n=6.0×1026 m-3 and it proved as a p-type semiconductor.The electrical phase trasition temperature from ferroelectric to antiferroelectric system（Tm=420 K） and anti-ferroelectric- paraelectric system（depolarization temperature Td=673 K） which attributed to the space charge polarization contributed to the conduction mechanism.The magnetic phase transitions were from ferromagnetic to ferrimagnetic system（Curie temperature（Tc=70 K）） and it led to soft magnetic material and also held good for superconductor application upto 70 K.
