Abstract

Thin films of vitreous solid electrolyte in the boron-oxide/lithium oxide system have been grown using a thermal evaporation technique. Solid electrolyte films of composition B2O3-xLi2O with 0.5≤x≤5 are obtained from a mixture of lithium metaborate and lithium oxide in good proportion. Structure and ionic conduction are studied as a function of the glass modifier concentration and process conditions. The structure is investigated by the mid-infrared absorption spectroscopyof films deposited on a silicon wafer. Comparison with bulk materials whose structures are known shows that the films have a similar structure, and exhibit the transformation of boroxol rings into triborate or di-triborate units as the Li2O concentration increases. The ionic conductivity has been studied over wide frequency and temperatureranges using the complex impedance spectroscopy in a sandwiched geometry. The ionic conductivity increases with increasing Li content and exhibits a maximum value for B2O3-3Li2O.
