Abstract

Proton conductivity is established by solid State electrolysis experiments on borax powder. There is marked anisotropy in electrical conductivity, the b-axis-direction of a single crystal being the most favourable one for protonic conduction. A minimum temperature (~ 21 °C) is observed, below which proton conduction ceases. This effect is discussed in relation to the competition between the reorientation rate of protons and their concentration.
