Jf. Stebbins et al., CATION-EXCHANGE RATES AND MOBILITY IN ALUMINUM-DOPED LITHIUM ORTHOSILICATE - HIGH-RESOLUTION LI-6 NMR RESULTS, Solid state ionics, 78(1-2), 1995, pp. 1-8
Magic-angle spinning NMR spectra on Li-6 in Li4SiO4, Li4.1Al0.1Si0.9O4
, and Li3.7Al0.1SiO4 resolve multiple lithium cation sites, and, with
increasing temperature, show averaging due to exchange of Li+ among si
tes. These exchange rates predict measured ionic conductivity accurate
ly. Doping with aluminum increases Li mobility significantly.
