Abstract

The effect of CaO substitutions (between 1 and 10% (CaO)2/Li2O) on the transport and physical properties of two fast ion conducting lithium borate glass systems (37.3 mol % Li20, 62.7 mol % Li2O3 and 50 mol % Li2O, 50 mol % Li2O, 50 mol % B2O3) are investigated. Measurements of electrical conductivity, density and glass transition temperature are reported. The influence of strain effects on carrier mobility is examined. Measurements of electrical conductivity and molar volume are extended to a K2O·2B2O3 glass and compared with existing data for corresponding lithium and sodium diborate glasses.
