Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A gallium doped garnet composition of the formula: Li 7-3y La 3 Zr 2 Ga y O 12 where y is from 0.4 to 2.0, and as defined herein. Also disclosed is a method for making a dense Li-ion conductive cubic garnet membrane, comprising one of two alternative lower temperature routes, as defined herein.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A gallium doped garnet composition of the formula: Li 7-3y La 3 Zr 2 Ga y O 12 where y is from 0.5 to 2.0, the composition is a cubic garnet powder having sub-micron-sized particles of from 100 nm to 1000 nm, and the composition has a pure cubic garnet phase determined by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and has a lattice constant of 13.045 Angstroms. 2. The composition of claim 1 wherein y is from 0.6 to 2.0. 3. The composition of claim 1 wherein the sintering temperature of the composition is below 1000° C. 4. The composition of claim 1 wherein the composition is of the formula Li 5.2 La 3 Zr 2 Ga 0.6 O 12 . 5. The composition of claim 1 wherein y is 0.6.
