Popis: Single crystals of fluorine-conducting solid electrolytes R 1 − y Sr y F3 − y and R 1 − y Ba y F3 − y (R = La-Lu, Y) with a tysonite-type structure (LaF3) have been optimized for room-temperature conductivity σ293 K. The optimization is based on high-temperature measurements of σ(T) in two-component nonstoichiometric phases R 1 − y M y F3 − y (M = Sr, Ba) as a function of the MF2 content. Optimization for thermal stability is based on studying the phase diagrams of MF2-RF3 systems (M = Sr, Ba) and the behavior of nonstoichiometric crystals upon heating when measuring temperature dependences σ(T). Single crystals of many studied R 1 − y Sr y F3 − y and R 1 − y Ba y F3 − y phases have σ293 K values large enough to use these materials in solid-state electrochemical devices (chemical sensors, fluorine-ion batteries, accumulators, etc.) operating at room temperature.
