abstract = {Mixed ionic electronic conducting ceramics Nd6−yWO12−δ
(δ is the oxygen deficiency) provide excellent stability in
harsh environments containing strongly reactive gases such
as CO2, CO, H2, H2O or H2S. Due to this chemical stability,
they are promising and cost-efficient candidate materials
for gas separation, catalytic membrane reactors and protonic
ceramic fuel cell technologies. As in La6−yWO12−δ, the
ionic/electronic transport mechanism in Nd6−yWO12−δ is
expected to be largely controlled by the crystal structure,
the conclusive determination of which is still lacking. This
work presents a crystallographic study of Nd5.8WO12−δ and
molybdenum-substituted Nd5.7W0.75Mo0.25O12−δ prepared by
the citrate complexation route. High-resolution synchrotron
and neutron powder diffraction data were used in combined
Rietveld refinements to unravel the crystal structure of
Nd5.8WO12−δ and Nd5.7W0.75Mo0.25O12−δ. Both
investigated samples crystallize in a defect fluorite
crystal structure with space group Fm3m and doubled
unit-cell parameter due to cation ordering. Mo replaces W at
both Wyckoff sites 4a and 48h and is evenly distributed, in
contrast with La6−yWO12−δ. X-ray absorption
spectroscopy as a function of partial pressure pO2 in the
near-edge regions excludes oxidation state changes of Nd
(Nd3+) and W (W6+) in reducing conditions: the enhanced
hydrogen permeation, i.e. ambipolar conduction, observed in
Mo-substituted Nd6−yWO12−δ is therefore explained by
the higher Mo reducibility and the creation of additional
– disordered – oxygen vacancies.},
