Proton motion in HNbO 3 and HTaO 3

Proton NMR relaxation times T 1, T 1 ϱ , and T 2 are reported for the compounds HTaO 3 and HNbO 3 in the temperature range 170–540 K. The data show that for both compounds two types of motion occur. Proton diffusion occurs in both compounds above 400 K with a correlation time, τ 0 c, of ∼30 ps and a...

Summary:Proton NMR relaxation times T 1, T 1 ϱ , and T 2 are reported for the compounds HTaO 3 and HNbO 3 in the temperature range 170–540 K. The data show that for both compounds two types of motion occur. Proton diffusion occurs in both compounds above 400 K with a correlation time, τ 0 c, of ∼30 ps and an activation energy of ∼50 kJ mole −1, approximately twice that for the localized process occurring at lower temperatures. Alternating current conductivity measurements have been used to study proton diffusion above 470 K in these compounds.
