“…Neodymium niobate NdNbO 4 (NNO) and tantalate NdTaO 4 (NTO) ceramics and films possess mixed types of conduction processes, including protonic, ionic, and electronic conduction which is determined by fabrication conditions, and these materials are promising for sensors, solid fuel cell electrolytes, and high-temperature proton conductors. [1][2][3][4][5] One of the most detailed structural studies on LnMO 4 (Ln = rare earths; M = Nd, Ta), which covers lanthanide ions, were implemented by Siqueira et al [6][7][8][9] For these materials, several polymorph modifications are known. At room temperature, these compounds crystallize in the monoclinic M-and M′-fergusonite structures and transformed to the tetragonal T scheelite-type structure 3 depending on sol-gel synthesis conditions.…”
