The impedance properties of UV-illuminated (λ = 310 nm) conductive domain walls (CDWs) in 5% Mg-doped LiNbO3 single crystals (sc) are investigated both on the nm length scale using nanoimpedance microscopy (NIM), as well as macroscopically by comparing the transport properties of multi- and single domain samples. Similar to the DC transport, we find the CDWs to be highly conductive for AC currents as well, mostly pronounced for f < 200 Hz due to the strong influence of the bulk capacitance at higher frequencies. Moreover, simultaneously applying both an AC and DC voltage results in an increased real part of the AC CDW current. Equivalent circuits accurately describing both the domain and CDW contributions hence were developed; as a result we are able to analyze and quantify the complex dielectric conductive behavior of both bulk and CDWs in sc-LiNbO3 within the framework of the mixed conduction model: Hopping of excited charge carriers along the CDWs was identified as the dominant charge transport process.
