Production and characteristics of substituted lanthanum niobate LaNb1–xWxO4 + δ

Аннотация

Solid solutions LaNb_1–xW_xO_{4 + δ} (x = 0.02–0.10, Δx = 0.02) were investigated, which crystallize in the monoclinic system (space group I2/c) at room temperature and undergo a phase transition into the tetragonal modification with increasing temperature. The stability of various modifications was analyzed by high-temperature X-ray powder diffraction analysis. The electrical conductivity of sintered samples was studied by impedance spectroscopy. Insertion of tungsten into the niobium sublattice leads to an increase in the conductivity of the solid solutions.
