Abstract
The attempt frequency for ion diffusion in the superionic conductors sodium and silver -alumina is directly observed as a resonance in the far infrared dielectric response. Correlation of the measured attempt frequency with the observed diffusion coefficient suggests that the best conductors, Na and Ag -alumina, can be described by a single ion hopping motion despite the relatively high density of diffusing species.
