Ionic conduction in the solid state

Solid state ionic conductors are important from an industrial viewpoint. A variety of such conductors have been found. In order to understand the reasons for high ionic conductivity in these solids, there have been a number of experimental, theoretical and computational studies in the literature. We provide here a survey of these investigations with focus on what is known and elaborate on issue...

The Ionic Basis of Nervous Conduction.

TOPICAL REVIEW Diffusion and Ionic Conduction in Nanocrystalline Ceramics

We review case studies of diffusion in nanocrystalline ceramics, i. e. polycrystalline non-metallic materials with average grain sizes typically in the range from 5 nm to 50 nm. The experimental methods applied are on the one hand tracer diffusion or conductivity methods which are sensitive to macroscopic transport, on the other hand NMR techniques which, complementarily to the previous ones, g...

Extraordinarily efficient conduction in a redox-active ionic liquid.

Iodine added to iodide-based ionic liquids leads to extraordinarily efficient charge transport, vastly exceeding that expected for such viscous systems. Using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, in conjunction with dc conductivity, diffusivity and viscosity measurements we unravel the conductivity pathways in 1-methyl-3-propylimidazolium iodide melts. This study presents evidence of the Grotthu...

CFTR: mechanism of anion conduction.

CFTR: Mechanism of Anion Conduction. Physiol. Rev. 79, Suppl.: S47-S75, 1999. - The purpose of this review is to collect together the results of recent investigations of anion conductance by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator along with some of the basic background that is a prerequisite for developing some physical picture of the conduction process. The review begins with ...
