Abstract

A method for the theoretical determination of the effective concentration of free charge carriers in solid proton-conducting electrolytes with the use of experimentally measured values of the electrical conductivity has been proposed. Polyantimonic acid has been considered as an example. It has been shown that the high electrical conductivity of solid proton-conducting electrolytes in comparison to other compounds with hydrogen bonds is due to the high concentration of effective free charge carriers and the low activation energy for the mobility of a proton.
