Abstract Perovskite structured strontium cerate doped with ytterbium and water, e.g. SrCe0.95Yb0.05 H0.02O2.985, is a well known proton conductor at elevated temperatures. We have studied its proton conductivity or diffusivity, respectively, by impedance spectroscopy, IS, and by quasielastic neutron scattering, QENS. While the former method yields a macroscopic proton diffusion coefficient, the latter method allows to elucidate the microscopic proton diffusion mechanism. It consists of a sequence of free diffusion and trapping/escape events with the Yb3+ ions acting as trapping centers. The self-diffusion coefficient obtained with QENS agrees with the conductivity diffusion coefficient obtained with IS.

The dynamics of H2O molecules and NH4+ ions in a new type of crystalline proton conductor (NH4)2(adp)[Zn2(ox)3]·3H2O has been investigated by quasielastic neutron scattering techniques to elucidate the proton conduction mechanism.

Relaxor ferroelectrics, such as Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PMN) or (Pb·88La ·12)(Zr·65Ti·35)O3 (PLZT), show diffuse ferroelectric transition which depends upon frequency of the a.c. field. In spite of their wide use in various applications details of their atomic structure and the mechanism of relaxor ferroelectric transition are not sufficiently understood. While their crystallographic structure is cubic perovskite, ABO3, their thermal factors (apparent amplitude of thermal vibration) is quite large, suggesting local displacive disorder due to heterovalent ion mixing. Electron microscopy suggests nano-scale structural as well as chemical inhomogeneity.We have studied the atomic structure of these solids by pulsed neutron scattering using the atomic pair-distribution analysis. The measurements were made at the Intense Pulsed Neutron Source (IPNS) of Argonne National Laboratory. Pulsed neutrons are produced by a pulsed proton beam accelerated to 750 MeV hitting a uranium target at a rate of 30 Hz. Even after moderation by a liquid methane moderator high flux of epithermal neutrons with energies ranging up to few eV’s remain.
