mixedionic
Mixedionic refers to a class of materials that exhibit both ionic and electronic conductivity. This dual nature distinguishes them from purely ionic conductors, which only allow the movement of ions, and purely electronic conductors, which only allow the movement of electrons. In mixed ionic-electronic conductors (MIECs), both charge carriers coexist and contribute to the overall electrical transport.
The ionic conductivity in MIECs arises from the mobility of ions within the material's crystal lattice or
MIECs are of significant interest due to their potential use in electrochemical devices. Their ability to conduct
