✦ Synopsis

The transport properties of the mixed-conductivity compound Ag 1.92 Te have been investigated within its homogeneity range at a temperature of 160°C. The composition dependence of the chemical diffusion coefficient has been obtained from galvanostatic polarization experiments on the asymmetric cell Ag " AgI " Ag 1.92 Te " Pt employing coulometric titrations for composition variation. Evaluation formulas for mixed conductors with arbitrary electronic transport numbers permit the determination of the chemical diffusion coefficient of Ag 1.92 Te. The electronic transport numbers needed for the calculations have been obtained from separate measurements of the partial conductivities. The chemical diffusion coefficient decreases slightly with decreasing silver content with typical values around 0.004 cm 2 s ؊1 . The electronic conductivity increases with decreasing silver content with values in the range of 4-10 S cm ؊1 , while the ionic conductivity is independent of silver activity, with typical values around 0.9 S cm ؊1 . The electronic properties have been interpreted in terms of a simple model considering nondegenerate electrons and nondegenerate holes.

The crystallization region of La 8 Cu 7 O 19 exists in a narrow temperature (1045+10503C) and composition range (1:4.5+ 1:5.0; La 2 O 3 :CuO molar ratio) in the La 2 O 3 +CuO system in an air ambient. In this narrow range, we have succeeded in growing large La 8 Cu 7 O 19 single crystals, for the 5r
