Jl. Gavartin et al., MODELING OF THE IMPURITY VACANCY INTERACTION IN MAGNESIUM DOPED LITHIUM-OXIDE, Journal of physics. Condensed matter, 5(40), 1993, pp. 7397-7408
The influence of the Mg2+ impurity on cation migration in Li2O crystal
s is considered. A static atomistic simulation technique is used to st
udy the most stable forms of impurity-vacancy association. The adiabat
ic barriers for the vacancy motion in the presence of Mg2+ impurity io
ns in Li2O are calculated and discussed. The formation of impurity-vac
ancy (Mg2+-V(c))n clusters and their possible further association is i
nvestigated.
