Abstract:In the PbF2 – SmF3 – SnF2 system, heterovalent substitution solid solutions Pb0.86-xSmxSn1,14F4+x (0 < x ≤ 0.15) with the structure β-PbSnF4 are formed. The unit cell parameters of solid solutions are satisfactorily described by Vegard’s rules. The electrical conductivity of the obtained samples decreases in the entire temperature range compared to Pb0.86Sn1.14F4 due to the introduction of SmF3 (at x≤0.08) in the initial structure. It brings them closer to the values of the electrical conductivity of β-P… Show more
