Abstract

The dynamics of fluoride and ammonium ions in Na(NH4)6Zr4F23 (I) and Li(NH4)6Zr4F23 (II) was studied by 1H and 19F NMR in the temperature range 170-440 K. Types of ionic motion were determined, and their activation energies were evaluated. In I, phase transitions were found in the temperature ranges 360-370 and 410-415 K. The experimental values of conductivity sigma of Na(NH4)6Zr4F23 and Li(NH4)6Zr4F23 (sigma ≈ 4 times 10^{-3} S/cm at T = 420 K) permit one to attribute these fluorides to the class of superionic conductors.
