Ionic mobility and conductivity in PbSnF4 doped with CaF2 from the NMR and impedance spectroscopy data

Resumo

The ionic mobility and conductivity in the crystalline phases of PbSnF_4–xCaF₂ systems (x = 2.5 mol.%, 5 mol.%, 7.5 mol.%, and 10 mol.%) in the temperature range of 150-500 K are studied by NMR and impedance spectroscopy. The parameters of ¹⁹F NMR spectra, types of ion motions, and ionic conductivity in the PbSnF₄ compound doped with calcium fluoride are found to be determined by the temperature and concentration of calcium fluoride. The specific conductivity of the crystalline phases in the PbSnF₄–CaF₂ systems is rather high at room temperature, and hence, one cannot exclude the possibility to use them for the creation of functional materials with a high ionic (superionic) conductivity.
