A 109Ag solid state NMR study on (AgI)x(AgPO3)1-x glasses is reported. We demonstrate that, all over the glass formation region (0 < x < 0.6), the number of Ag carriers is nearly equal to the fraction of silver ions introduced by AgI. The dramatic conductivity changes from x=0.1 to x=0.5 (more than three orders-of-magnitude) are mainly due to changes of cations mobility. The role of AgI in affecting the transport properties of these glasses is discussed in terms of free volume, mixed oxygen-iodine coordination, and opening of percolative channels, in agreement with modified continuous random network model.

Abstract
A 109Ag solid state NMR study on (AgI)x(AgPO3)1-x glasses is reported. We demonstrate that, all over the glass formation region (0 < x < 0.6), the number of Ag carriers is nearly equal to the fraction of silver ions introduced by AgI. The dramatic conductivity changes from x=0.1 to x=0.5 (more than three orders-of-magnitude) are mainly due to changes of cations mobility. The role of AgI in affecting the transport properties of these glasses is discussed in terms of free volume, mixed oxygen-iodine coordination, and opening of percolative channels, in agreement with modified continuous random network model.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
