La[sub 0.67[minus]x]Li[sub 3x]TiO[sub 3] solid solution forms in the range [approximately]0.15 > x > [approximately]0.04 by the substitution mechanism La[r equilibrium]3Li. Superstructure reflections observed in this range are consistent with a superlattice consisting of the stacking of two perovskite subcells. A line-splitting phenomenon observed for x < [approximately]0.1 indicates that the tetragonal distortion of the cubic perovskite subcell occurs. The solid solutions exhibit high lithium ion conductivities greater than 10[sup [minus]4] S cm [sup [minus]1] at room temperature in a wide range, x > [approximately]0.04. A maximum conductivity of 1.1 [times] 10[sup [minus]3] S cm[sup [minus]1] is found at x [approx] 0.1. The dome-shaped composition dependence of conductivity indicates that the conduction mechanism involves the movement of lithium ions through the A-site vacancies.
