Abstract

The structure of NASICON-type compounds, Na1+xScxTi2-x(PO4)3 (O ≤ x ≤ 2), and the dynamics of Na+ have been investigated by 23Na NMR spectroscopy. It was found that the 23Na 1D and 2D MQMAS spectra depend on the Na concentration, suggesting strongly that the Na+ ions are distributed between two crystallographically nonequivalent sites, one is a special position with axial symmetry, and the other a position of low symmetry. The chemical exchange between these different sites in the crystal takes place at room temperature, which may cause the high Na ion conduction of this material
