| Popis: | Li self-diffusion in rhombohedral Li7BiO6, being a promising basic material for cathodes of rechargeable ion batteries, is studied by means of 7Li stimulated echo NMR. Using the pulse sequence introduced by Jeener and Broekaert, a spin-alignment echo is created whose amplitude decay is recorded as a function of mixing time. The so-obtained two-time correlation functions follow stretched exponential behavior and lead to decay rates which can be identified directly with microscopic Li motional correlation rates (tau(-1)). Using a jump distance of about 0.2 nm, this results in a diffusion coefficient (D) of about 0.5 x 10(-16) m(2) s(-1) at 294 K. The activation energy turned out to be 0.53(3) eV which is in very good agreement with recently obtained results by means of dc-conductivity measurements probing long-range diffusion parameters. This shows that stimulated echo NMR, due to its inherent time scale, gives microscopic access to long-range transport. The prefactor tau(0)(-1) of the corresponding Arrhenius law lies in the typical range of phonon frequencies, tau(0)(-1) = 3 x 10(12) s(-1). |
