Abstract

The first preparation of superionic BaSnF4, BaSnF4(ssr), was carried out in 1975 by direct reaction at high temperature between appropriate amounts of BaF2 and SnF2 under inert conditions in sealed copper tubes. In the present work, BaSnF4(aq2) was synthesized for the first time by the wet method. X-ray powder diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy were used to characterize the products, and show that BaSnF4(aq2) and BaSnF4(ssr) are the same material.
