La2BaLu2O7: A New Mixed Oxygen-Ionic Conductor
摘要
Abstract
New ceramic materials that have ionic conductivity and can be used as components in various electrochemical devices are being actively developed. This study focuses on the electrical conductivity of a recently prepared layered perovskite-like oxide of La2BaLu2O7, which has a two-layer Ruddlesden–Popper structure. Compounds with this structure exhibit ionic conductivity, whose level depends on the substitutions in the crystal lattice. It is found that the electrical conductivity in La2BaLu2O7 has a mixed oxygen-ionic character, with ionic conductivity accounting for an average of 66.5% of the total conductivity.
