Abstract

Thallium scandium hafnium molybdate Tl5ScHf(MoO4)6 and thallium scandium zirconium molybdate Tl5ScZr(MoO4)6 crystallize in trigonal symmetry with the space group R3¯c. The compounds are synthesized by sintering the finely powdered simple molybdates mixture in a muffle furnace at 723–823 ​K for 100 ​h. The crystal structures of Tl5ScHf(MoO4)6 and Tl5ScZr(MoO4)6 are obtained by Rietveld method. The following unit cell parameters are calculated for Tl5ScHf(MoO4)6: a ​= ​10.62338 (5), c ​= ​38.0579 (2) Å, V ​= ​3719.64 (4) Å3, Z ​= ​6 and for Tl5ScZr(MoO4)6: a ​= ​10.63216 (7), c ​= ​38.0716 (3) Å, V ​= ​3727.14 (5) Å3, Z ​= ​6. The conductivity of the Tl5ScHf(MoO4)6 and Tl5ScZr(MoO4)6 are measured between 293 and 860 ​K. The ionic conductivity of Tl5ScHf(MoO4)6 and Tl5ScZr(MoO4)6 molybdates are 8 ​× ​10−4 ​S/cm and 8 ​× ​10−3 ​S/cm (at 773 ​K); the activation energy of ionic transfer are 0.8 ​eV and 0.3 ​eV respectively.
