Abstract
Haciendo uso de la química sol-gel, se han preparado ortofosfatos de composición LiTi_(2)(PO_(4))_(3) y Li_(1.05)(Cr/Fe)_(0.05)Ti_(1.95)(PO_(4))_(3) a temperaturas moderadas mediante el método Pechini. Estas fases han sido caracterizadas estructural y microestructuralmente por difracción de rayos X de polvo y microscopía electrónica de barrido (SEM), encontrándose que todas cristalizan en una estructura tipo NASICON, con parámetros de red muy similares. El dopaje con Fe y Cr permite aumentar la densidad de las muestras en la sinterización, mejorando de forma apreciable su conductividad iónica. Se ha observado un incremento de hasta cuatro órdenes de magnitud en la conductividad a temperatura ambiente obteniéndose una energía de activación de 0.29 eV para el material dopado con Cr.
Compounds of formula Li_(1+x)M^(III)_(x)Ti_(2-x)(PO_(4))_(3) with M^(III)=Cr,Fe and x=0 and 0.05 have been prepared at soft temperatures using the Pechini synthesis method, based on sol-gel chemistry. The structural and microstructural characterization by X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), shows that all of them crystallize in a NASICON-type structure with similar lattice parameters. Doping with Fe and Cr, causes an increase of the density of the samples after sinterization what clearly improves the ionic conductivity of the original material, LiTi_(2)(PO_(4))_(3) until values of 9x10^(-4) S cm^(-1) at room temperature in the chromium-doped material.
