Abstract
This work covers the study of the influence of oxygen on the electrical conduc- tivity of CaFz and BaFz single crystals for the temperature range 450-1 200 OC. The study included three different aspects : thermogravimetry measurements, total electrical conductivity and cationic transport number. Results show that oxygen takes up substitutional positions. The reaction of introduction is accompanied by the occurrence of fluoride ion vacancies, Vk, and the irreversible departure of fluorine. The study also showed how the intrinsic, extrinsic and association domains vary according to the partial pressure of oxygen.Keywords
