Sintering of W-substituted Na <sub>3</sub> SbS <sub>4</sub> electrolytes: effect of phase composition, voids, and interface contact
Tungsten-substituted Na<sub>3</sub>SbS<sub>4</sub> shows enhanced ionic conductivity but the role of sintering treatments is not well understood. The effects of sintering on Na<sub>3-<i>x</i></sub>Sb<sub>1-<i>x</i></sub>W<sub><i>x</i></sub>S<sub>4</sub> were examined and found to slightly increase the solubility of W, reduce voids, and possibly increase contact area. Changes in phase composition and morphology play a key role in the performance of Na<sub>3-<i>x</i></sub>Sb<sub>1-<i>x</i></sub>W<sub><i>x</i></sub>S<sub>4</sub> electrolytes.
