Abstract

This paper reports the effect of silver ion substituted by Tl+ of different size on nanostructure and ionic conductivity of the compound CsAg2−x . The X-ray diffraction data of the samples have been analyzed using Willamson-Hall method. The peaks of X-ray profile have been determined with more accuracy using PEAKFIT program. The results imply that the lattice strain increases with increase of Tl+ cation content. The ionic conductivity enhances due to the increase in the lattice strain. Unit cell parameters have been also refined and obtained using CHEKCELL software.
