Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

We have synthesized Li0.5 − y Na y La0.5□Nb2O6 defect perovskite solid solutions with 0 ≤ y ≤ 0.5. Their structure has been shown to undergo partial disordering with increasing sodium content. Lithium ion diffusion in the Li0.5 − y Na y La0.5□Nb2O6 system exhibits no percolation effects. The ionic conductivity as a function of sodium content has a maximum due to two competing factors: the increase in perovskite cell volume and the decrease in lithium ion concentration.
