Abstract

To clarify the contribution of defect structure of CaWO4-based system on the oxide ion conduction properties, we doped both cesium and lanthanum ions into CaWO4 as Ca0.9CsxLa0.1−xWO4.05−x. Scheelite-type structured solid solution can be obtained for the Cs-rich region (x ≥ 0.05) with oxygen deficiency, while second phase appears for La-rich region (x ≤ 0.025) assuming excess oxide ions. In the present system, a bend in Arrhenius plot of conductivity is observed around 850 °C as the typical CaWO4-based system even co-doping with La ions. In terms of the compositional dependence, ionic conduction develops from x = 0.05 with the amount of cation vacancy below 800 °C, while the conductivity enhancement starts at the La-rich region above 900 °C. This indicates that not only oxide ion vacancy but also interstitial attribute to the oxide ion conduction at high-temperature, which is also suggested by the activation energy.
