Abstract Solid State Ionics has its roots essentially in Europe. First foundations were laid by
Michael Faraday who discovered the solid electrolytes Ag 2 S and PbF 2 and coined terms …

Argyrodite-type Li6PS5X (X= Cl, Br) compounds are considered to act as powerful ionic
conductors in next-generation all-solid-state lithium batteries. In contrast to Li6PS5Br and …

The Y-halides Li3YBr6 and Li3YCl6 have recently gained considerable attention as they
might be used as ceramic electrolytes in all-solid-state batteries. Such materials need to …

The optical, dielectric response, and ac-conductivity properties for six glasses of zinc lead-
borate doped with different contents of Fe 3+(Fe 2 O 3= 0 to 10 wt%) have been …

Low temperature AC conductivity studies on melt quenched xAgI-(1− x) AgPO 3 glass
electrolytes are presented. It is observed that doped glasses show Jonscher power law …

PbF 2 has already been the subject of one of Michael Faraday's experiments that played the
crucial part in the discovery of fast F− anion transport in solids. In contrast to the cubic form of …

Understanding the origins of fast ion transport in solids is important to develop new ionic
conductors for batteries and sensors. Nature offers a rich assortment of rather inspiring …

We investigated the ac and dc conductivity in 50V2O5–(50− x) P2O5–xA2O (A= Li, Na, K)
glasses as a function of temperature. The measurements were carried out in the frequency …

Ion dynamics in binary Li-bearing compounds such as LiF, Li2O and Li2S is rather poor.
These compounds do, however, form as decomposition products at the interface between …

Glassy materials with specific functions are almost universally used in our daily life. If
prepared via quenching, that is, by rapid cooling of the molten glass, a frozen liquid with a …
