Abstract

A new procedure has been suggested for the synthesis of bismuth fluorozirconate glasses in the ZrF4–BiF3–MF systems (M = Rb, Cs), which is based on the use of the relatively moisture-resistant Rb2ZrF6 and Cs2ZrF6 fluorides rather than extremely hygroscopic rubidium and cesium fluorides. The types of ion motions, trends in ion mobility dynamics, and factors determining this dynamics as a function of the glass composition have been elucidated. A rather high ionic conductivity of glasses above 470 K, σ ≥ 10–4 S/cm, makes them promising candidates for use in design of functional materials.
