Phase Transitions and Translational Freedom in Solid Electrolytes

  • Chapter
Superionic Conductors

Part of the book series: Physics of Solids and Liquids ((PSLI))

Abstract

In 1834 Faraday (1) recorded an interesting phenomenon. In his words: “I formerly described a substance, sulphuret of silver, whose conducting power was increased by heat; and I have since then met with another as strongly affected in the same way: this is fluoride of lead. When a piece of that substance, which had been fused and cooled, was introduced into the circuit of a voltaic battery, it stopped the current. Being heated, it acquired conducting powers before it was visibly red hot in daylight; and even sparks could be taken against it whilst still solid.”
