Effect of the modification of the cationic and anionic framework on the structural and electrical properties of lanthanum molybdates

Abstract

Fluorinated lanthanum molybdates have been prepared at 1500 and 1200 ºC for 1 h and cooled down at 5 ºC min-1. The combination of anionic (F-) and cationic (Nb5+) doping stabilizes the cubic polymorph without needing a sudden cooling of the samples, increases the stability in reducing conditions and en-hances the electrical properties.
