Ionic Conductivity and Crystal Structure of TM-Doped Mg0.5Ti2(PO4)3 (TM = Fe, Mn, Co and Nb)

Article Preview

Abstract:

New Magnesium-Ion Conductors, TM-Doped Mg0.5Ti2(PO4)3 (TM = Fe, Mn, Co and Nb), Have Been Prepared by Sol-Gel Method. In Addition, their Crystal Structure Has Been Refined by Rietveld Technique and the Conductivity Has Been Evaluated by Ac Impedance Method. The Samples Were Sintered at 1150°C for 2 H (Fe, Mn and Co) or 1200°C for 10 H (Nb). For All Samples, Three Resistance Components Attributed to Grain, Grain Boundary and the Interface of Electrolyte-Electrode Were Successfully Separated as a Result of Sintering Accompanied by Grain Growth Reaching to 5 to 10 µm. The Change of Ionic Conductivity Will Be Discussed in Relation to the Dopants and their Crystal Structures.
