Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Oxygen Ion Conduction in Orthorhombic Perovskite Ba-Doped LaInO3 Using Cubic and
Abstract:
The oxygen ion conduction behavior of an orthorhombic perovskite oxide Ba-doped LaInO3 was evaluated by molecular dynamics simulation. Comparative calculations for cubic and the orthorhombic models show that the orthorhombic model was in better agreement with the experimental results with respect to both ionic conductivity and activation energy. The results of the radial distribution function for O-O pair provided and explanation for why the ionic conductivity of cubic perovskite is higher than that of orthorhombic perovskite. The orthorhombic model has a higher peak intensity of O-O pair than the cubic model, it means that the orthorhombic model has a smaller number of oxygen-vacancy pairs in the lattice structure. Consequently, the ionic conductivity of orthorhombic perovskite is lower than that of cubic perovskite due to less conduction path.

Molecular and Ionic Solids
Molecular Solids
Molecular crystalline solids, such as ice, sucrose (table sugar), and iodine, are solids that are composed of neutral molecules as their constituent units. These molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces such as London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions, or hydrogen bonds, which...

Ionic Crystal Structures
Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
