研究目的
To study the properties of sodium-containing NaLn4Mo3O15F (Ln = La, Pr, or Nd) oxyfluorides, including their synthesis, structural characteristics, electrical conductivity, phase transitions, and potential as proton conductors.
研究成果
NaLn4Mo3O15F oxyfluorides exhibit a reversible phase transition, piezoelectric effect, and enhanced conductivity compared to undoped compounds, with a vacancy-type oxygen conductivity mechanism. They are hygroscopic and show promise as proton conductors, suggesting applications in solid oxide fuel cells and other electrochemical devices. Future research should focus on detailed structural analysis and proton conductivity studies.
研究不足
The study is limited to specific rare-earth elements (La, Pr, Nd) and synthesis conditions in air. The phase transition mechanism and exact structural changes are not fully elucidated due to the cubic symmetry observed in XRD despite lower symmetry indications from other measurements. The hygroscopic nature and proton conductivity potential require further investigation.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved solid-phase synthesis of NaLn4Mo3O15F compounds, characterization using XRD, EDX, thermal analysis (DSC and TG), piezoelectric testing, and electrical property measurements via impedance spectroscopy to investigate structural, thermal, and conductive properties.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Polycrystalline samples of NaLa4Mo3O15F, NaPr4Mo3O15F, and NaNd4Mo3O15F were prepared from extra pure-grade NaF, La2O3, Pr6O11, Nd2O3, and MoO3. Data were collected from synthesized samples and compared with Nd5Mo3O16+δ.

Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: Samples were synthesized by grinding, pressing into pellets, and firing at 400, 600, and 700°C with intermediate grindings. XRD was used for phase analysis, EDX for composition, thermal analysis for phase transitions and weight loss, piezoelectric test for symmetry reduction, and impedance measurements for conductivity and permittivity over a temperature range.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Unit-cell parameters were evaluated by least squares fitting from XRD data. Conductivity and permittivity data were analyzed using Arrhenius plots and frequency dependences. Thermal data were interpreted for phase transitions and enthalpy changes.
