QENS Investigation of Proton Conduction Mechanism in Spark-Plasma-Sintered Protonic Ceramics Based on Doped Barium Zirconate

Abstract: As part of a PhD study our research team is investigating protonic conduction in cerium and yttrium doped barium zirconate (BZCY) prepared by Spark Plasma Sintering. Previous experiments have been successfully carried out for yttrium-doped barium cerates to clarify the protonic behaviour inside the sample. However, the exact processes of protonic transport especially when prepared by novel techniques remain unknown. The aim of this experiment is to use quasielastic neutron scattering to gather detailed information on the diffusion of protons in BZCY, to get a better understanding of the proton conduction mechanism.
