Abstract

Lithium ion conductivity of lithium hexaoxozirconate Li8ZrO6 doped by Mg2+, Sr2+, Nb5+, V5+, and Ce4+ cations was studied using impedance spectroscopy. The NMR data indicate that in the low-temperature region, lithium ion migration takes place by exchange of Li+ among tetra- and octahedral positions. Data of Raman spectroscopy suggest that the potential reason for the sharp increase of Li8ZrO6 and its solid solutions’ conductivity near 700 K may be melting of LiOH which occurs as a result of interaction between samples and atmospheric moisture.

Highlights

Li8ZrO6 doped by M2+, A5+, and Ce4+ was studied using impedance, Raman study, and NMR. The maximum conductivity (9 × 10-6 S cm−1 at 476 К) is observed for Li7.98Zr0.98V0.02O6. Below 700 K, Li+ ions move via jumps between octahedral and tetrahedral positions. In all cases, conductivity shows a jump-like rise at 680–710 K. One of the reasons for a jump of conductivity near 700 K may be the melting of LiOH.
