Abstract

Glasses and glass-ceramics of composition Na3+3x-yRE1-xPySi3-yO9 were synthesized using RE = Sc and Y, x = 0.4, and y = 0.0 and 0.3 to obtain multiple-phase glass-ceramics containing the highly conducting Na5RESi4O12 (N5) phase. In addition, the two model compounds Na5ScSi4O12 and Na5InSi4O12 were synthesized. Samples were characterized at two distinct annealing stages using X-ray powder diffraction, electrical conductivity measurements, and multinuclear solid-state magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The N5 phase is dominantly formed for Sc-containing glass-ceramics (both with y = 0.0 and 0.3) at crystallization temperatures above 900 degrees C. For the other glass-ceramics, the crystallized phases were dominantly Na3RESi2O7 (N3), RE = Sc and Y, and Na9YSi6O18 (N9) phases. Si-29 MAS-NMR peak assignments were done with the aid of Si-29{Sc-45} rotational echo adiabatic passage double resonance (REAPDOR) experiments. Si-29 and Na-23 MAS-NMR spectra reveal complex phase compositions and local environment distributions, which could be largely assigned based on known semiempirical chemical shift correlations with average Si-O and Na-O bond distances. P-31 MAS and P-31{Sc-45} REAPDOR NMR results suggest the presence of orthophosphate groups, arguing against the literature model of isostructural substitution of silicon by phosphorus in the N5 phase.
