Preparation and electrical properties of bismuth tungstate solid electrolytes by Yuen, Mei Lian

“…It was also worthwhile to point out that a pure Bi6.24W0.88O12 ion conducting solid electrolyte without any electronic conduction was produced with ionic conductivity of 6 orders higher than the reported YSZ at 600 °C, elucidating a greater potential of Bi6.24W0.88O12 to be used as a material utilized in SOFC electrolytes applications. Doping was carried out on the Bi or W sites in Bi6.24W0.88O12 with selected dopants, including monovalent (Li+), divalent (Ca2+, Cu2+, Ni2+ and Zn2+), trivalent (Cr3+ and Y3+), tetravalent (Sn4+, Ti4+ and Zr4+), pentavalent (Sb5+, V5+, Nb5+ and Ta5+) and hexavalent (Mo6+) cations in order to investigate their effects on the electrical properties of doped Bi6.24W0.88O12 materials. …”
