Abstract

Barium-nitrade-hydride is one of the few documented H--ionic conductors. It crystallises in the [alpha]-NaFeO2-structure (space group R m) with distorted Ba-octahedra centred alternately by H- and N3-. Neutron diffraction shows that the hydrogen ions are distributed independent of temperature over lattice sites: 85% on (3a) and 15% on (6c). At T > 525 K a sharp increase of the ionic conductivity can be observed. The diffusion process takes place by uncorrelated jumps of hydrogen ions between regular lattice sites. Using quasielastic neutron scattering techniques and a planar jump diffusion model, we were able to determine the mean residence time [tau] on a H--site to be [tau]=20±2ps and the diffusion constant D to be 2.1±0.3×10-5 cm2/ /s at T=823 K.
