The electrical properties and structure of solid solutions in Ga/sub 2/O/sub 3/-EO/sub 2/-K/sub 2/O (E = Si, Ge, Ti) are studied. It is established that in all three systems solid solutions based on potassium monogallate are formed which possess high potassium-cation conductivity. The principle factor determining the high conductivity of such solutions is the formation of potassium vacancies resulting from the substitution of Ga/sup 3 +/ ions in KGaO/sub 2/ by ions of quadrivalent elements.
