Abstract

Apatites are a very important class of functional materials that exhibit a range of stoichiometries and crystal structures. The oxygen diffusion mechanisms and activation energies in these materials are highly influenced by the composition and crystal structure. We review recent investigations on apatites with a focus on their self-diffusion properties as these are important for their potential application as electrolytes in solid oxide fuel cells.
