“…[20] Halide doping leads to the formation of Na + vacancies,w hich may facilitate Na + ion transport. [26] The predicted conductivity for the Ge compound was in good agreement with the previous report, [23] and the authors found the same composition/conductivity trend as known for the lithium compounds Li 10 TtP 2 S 12 ,n amely that the Na + ion conductivity decreases in the order Si!Ge!Sn. [20] In as ubsequent study,O ng and co-workers synthesized tetragonal Na 3Àx PS 4Àx Cl x with x = 6.25 %a nd achieved aconductivity of 1.14 mS cm À1 at 303 K. [21] Inspired by the very high Li + ion conductivity of compounds with composition Li 10 TtP 2 S 12 (Tt = Si, Ge, Sn), [5,6,22] some groups recently dedicated research efforts to the theoretical and experimental investigation of compounds in the quaternary sodium system with the same stoichiometry, namely Na 10 TtP 2 S 12 .I n2 015, Waghmare and co-workers computed the conductivity of Na 10 GeP 2 S 12 (NGPS) by means of density functional theory (DFT) and obtained av alue of 4.7 mS cm À1 ,which is even higher than the overall conductivity of commercial b''-alumina (2 mS cm À1 )a nd the overall conductivity of the best NASICON-type sodium-ion conductor Na 3.4 Sc 0.4 Zr 1.6 (SiO 4 ) 2 (PO 4 )( 4mScm À1 ).…”
