The influence of the lanthanum content, sintering temperature, and cooling rate on the phase existence range and polymorphism was evaluated. Lanthanum-rich compounds present three different polymorphs: a cubic (disordered) fluorite and two complex rhombohedral superstructures related to the fluorite. For the first time, the structural resolution of these rhombohedral superstructures, 7 × 7 × 1 and 5 × 5 × 1, has been successfully accomplished by neutron powder diffraction and transmission electron microscopy studies. As the La/Mo ratio decreases, the cubic symmetry is stabilized, although a phase transformation from cubic to monoclinic occurs at a low cooling rate. Impedance spectroscopy measurements under different atmospheres (dry and wet N2 and 5% H2−Ar) show that all materials exhibit mixed proton−electronic conductivity. The n-type electronic conductivity is attributed to Mo6+ reduction and increases for those phases with lower lanthanum content, i.e., for quenched samples, from 5 mS cm−1 for La5.4MoO11.1 to 9.5 mS cm−1 for La4MoO9 at 700 °C in very reducing and wet conditions, which are significantly better than the values published to date for mixed lanthanum tungstates/ molybdates. This makes these materials potential candidates for hydrogen separation membranes. https://hdl.handle.net/10630/28458 10.1021/acs.chemmater.0c02673 Separación por membrana Química organometálica Unravelling Crystal Superstructures and Transformations in the La6−xMoO12−δ (0.6 ≤ x ≤ 3.0) Series: A System with Tailored Ionic/ Electronic Conductivity.
