摘要
Single phase (Bi2O3)(1-x)(Y2O3)(x) samples with x = 0.15, 0.20, 0.30 and 0.40 were successfully synthesised via conventional solid state method at the firing temperature of 800 degrees C over 24 h. These samples crystallised in cubic fluorite structure, space group, Fm-3m and lattice parameters, a ranging from 5.5167 angstrom to 5.4369 angstrom with an increase of doped Y2O3. The linear-plot obeyed Vegard%26apos;s law, revealing a well-behaved substitutional solid solution existed within the incorporated dopant concentration range. (Bi2O3)(1-x)(Y2O3)(x) subsolidus system was thermally stable as no phase transition or weight loss was discernable within the studied temperature. The electrical properties of the prepared samples were characterised by AC impedance analyser, HP4192 at temperature ranging from 25 degrees C to 850 degrees C in the frequency range of 5 Hz to 13 MHz. The impedance data could be represented by different RC equivalent circuits. The conduction mechanism involved two processes with different activation energies at low and high temperature regions, e.g. 1.09-1.12 eV and 0.41-0.44 eV, respectively. The ionic conductivities of the prepared samples were found decreased with increase of yttrium content. These values were in general higher than that of commercial yttria- stabilised zirconia (YSZ) solid electrolyte over wide range of temperatures.
