Abstract
The electrical and thermal conductive properties of two-component single crystals of Pb0.67Cd0.33F2, Ca0.59Sr0.41F2, and Cd0.77Sr0.23F2 solid solutions with fluorite-type structure (CaF2), characterized by congruent melting (presence of minima in melting curves) and uniform distribution of components in the crystal bulk. Pb0.67Cd0.33F2 crystals, in contrast to isostructural Ca0.59Sr0.41F2 and Cd0.77Sr0.23F2 crystals, are characterized by high fluorine-ion electrical conductivity (σ = 0.02 S/m at 293 K); low ion-transport activation enthalpy (ΔH ≈ 0.4 eV); low thermal conductivity (k = 1.1 W/mK at 300 K); and glassy behavior of heat transfer, which is atypical for crystalline state. This anomalous behavior of the electrical and thermal conductivities of Pb0.67Cd0.33F2 crystals is due to the strong structural disordering of the anionic subsystem (which is retained at room temperature) as a result of isovalent replacements of Pb2+ cations with Cd2+ cations.
