Oxygen ion conduction in the Aurivillius phases Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}(Nb or Ta){sub 2}(Ga or Al)O{sub 11.5} has been evaluated in detail. High-temperature X-ray diffraction studies, coupled with differential scanning calorimetry, electron microscopy, and conductivity measurements were used to clearly demonstrate that Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}(Nb{sub x}Ta{sub 1-x}){sub 2}(Ga{sub y}Al{sub 1-y})O{sub 11.5} with x = 0, 1 and y = 0, 0.5, and 1 form only multiphase specimens. The origin of the previously observed fast ion conduction is a result of interconnected Bi{sub 2}O{sub 3} grains that undergo a high-temperature phase transformation to the {delta}-Bi{sub 2}O{sub 3} polymorph. The Aurivillius phase component of the multiphase specimens does not demonstrate any type of order-disorder transformation, however, the phase transformations of the Bi{sub 2}O{sub 3} are clearly observed using high-temperature diffraction and calorimetry.
