Abstract

In this study, mechanochemical milling (also known as mechanical alloying), has been used as an alternative means of synthesis of ceramic metal oxide electrolytes at room temperature and compared to the conventional calcination methods. The oxide electrolytes prepared by mechanical milling, were, the lanthanide-doped fcc Bismuth Oxides and Cerium Oxides, both of which are oxygen deficient. Conductivities for some of these milled oxides, measured by the four probe technique, were found to be enhanced when compared to those for conventionally prepared materials.
