Correlation of macroscopic ion dynamics with microscopic length scale and modification of network structure in ion conducting mixed network former glasses

Abstract

We have studied silver ion dynamics in mixed network former molybdophosphate glasses by varying the glass network formers ratio. We have shown that the macroscopic ion transport is correlated to the characteristic microscopic length scale and the modification of the phosphate network structure due to the introduction of molybdate network former. The time-temperature superposition of the conductivity spectra onto a single master curve is independent of the mixing of the network formers.
