Abstract

The oxygen-ion conductor 0.88ZrO2-0.12Sc2O3has a discontinuous change in ion conductivity at about 660°C. This changeaccompanies the structural transition from rhombohedral to cubic phase.Since the high temperature cubic phase shows large ion conductivity, it isof interest to examine whether or not the cubic phase stabilizes in the lowtemperature region by another dopant . By adding only 0.005 mole % La2O3, the cubic phase is stabilized below about500 °C without any loss of conductivity compared with 0.88ZrO2-0.12Sc2O3. The ion conductivityof cubic stabilized ZrO2-Sc2O3-La2O3system is around 1×10-1 S/cm at 800°C. Cubic phase stabilizationusing second dopant in a ZrO2-Sc2O3 systemled to the finding of a fast oxygen-ion conductor in the ZrO2-Sc2O3-La2O3system.
