Abstract
The solid electrolytes with fluorine-ion conductivity that were revealed during the analysis of the phase diagrams of the MF m -RF n systems within the program of search for new multicomponent fluoride crystalline materials carried out at the Shubnikov Institute of Crystallography, Russian Academy of Sciences, are described. The most widespread and promising materials are the nonstoichiometric phases with fluorite (CaF2) and tysonite (LaF3) structures, which are formed in the MF2-RF3 systems (M = Ca, Sr, Ba, Cd, or Pb; R = Sc, Y, or La-Lu). These phases have superionic fluorine conductivity due to the anion sublattice disorder. The ionic conductivity of crystals of both structure types has been studied and the limits of its change with composition and temperature are determined. Nonstoichiometric fluorides are used as solid electrolytes in chemical sensors, fluorine sources, and batteries. The prospects of the use of fluorine-ion conductors in solid-state electrochemical devices, principles of their operation, and the problems of optimization of their composition are discussed.
