Summary:The enhanced ionic conductivity observed when ceramic particles are added to LiI prompted this study of ionic transport along the LiI-SiO 2 interface. The results of a previous study of interfacial ion transport are reviewed and a possible mechanism for enhanced interfacial conduction is presented. The effects of interfacial roughness, aliovalent doping (MgI 2) and homovalent doping (KI) of LiI on the LiI SiO 2 interfacial conductivity are discussed. It is concluded that the enhanced conductivity observed for LiI-ceramic particle composites results from rapid ion transport along the core of the interfacial region.
