Optimization of the Compositions of Solid Electrolytes Pb1 – xRxF2 + x with Fluorite-Type Structure in Conductivity and Thermal Stability
The compositions of nonstoichiometric phases Pb 1 – x R x F 2 + x (CaF 2 type, R is a rare-earth element) have been optimized with respect to the ionic conductivity and thermal stability based on the temperature measurements of the electrical conductivity of single crystals and alloys, in depend...
