Solid electrolytes with high copper ionic conductivity and low electronic hole conductivity were found in the RbCl + CuCl system. The highest conductivity of RbCu/sub 3/Cl/sub 4/ (75 mole percent (m/o) CuCl) was 2.25 x 10/sup -3/ (..cap omega..-cm)/sup -1/ at 25/sup 0/C. The conductivity was measured as functions of temperature and of composition. X-ray patterns and thermal analyses indicate that the material is a new compound and not a mixture of the constituents. 6 figures, 2 tables.
