Abstract
We have measured Raman spectra of sample of sodium β-alumina and samples with silver ion implantation where one kind of sample was not annealed after the implantation, and the others were Ag +-implanted with annealing for 30 minutes at 300, 400, 500 and 700°C, respectively. Raman spectra show that silver ion implantation disturbs sublattice of Na + in β-alumina with some disorder features and some resonance modes appeared in the Raman spectra. We have found the critical annealing temperature near 400°C, above which the silver ion, typically with small activation energy 0.18 eV, gains enough energy to diffuse rapidly through the vacancy clusters formed by silver ion implantation and also through the conduction plane of crystal between clusters in β-alumina with high ionic conductivity.
