Abstract
Simple mixing or shaking of alkaline earth hydroxides with ammonium fluoride results in nanocrystalline phase pure metal fluorides MF2 (M: Ca, Sr, Ba). The formation of the alkaline earth fluorides was investigated by varying the reaction conditions. Evidence was found that just the contact between the starting materials is sufficient for the reaction to take place. X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, 19F MAS NMR spectroscopy, and measurements of DC conductivities were used to characterize the fluorides regarding properties like crystal structure, crystallite sizes, local fluorine coordination, and fluorine ion conductivity. The 19F MAS NMR spectra of the phase pure fluorides prepared showed several signals, which were assigned to defects, impurities, or geometric distortions. The fluorides prepared by mixing or shaking revealed fluorine ion conductivities several orders of magnitude higher than observed for the respective microcrystalline alkaline earth fluorides. Therefore, the synthesis routine presented in this study may open a path to a very quick and simple synthesis of nanocrystalline fast fluorine ion conductors.
