Indium oxide has been considered as a promising material for solar collector reflectors. Diffusion measurements were made between 1000 and 1300 K on films of In/sub 2/O/sub 3/ by electrochemical techniques using an yttria-stabilized zirconia solid electrolyte. At atmospheric oxygen pressures, diffusion invariably occurred via an oxygen interstitial mechanism. The diffusion coefficient decreased with decreasing oxygen pressure. 33 refs.
