Mesoscopic fast ion conduction in nanometre-scale planar heterostructures
TL;DR: The preparation of defined heterolayered films composed of CaF2 and BaF2 that exhibit ionic conductivity increasing proportionally with interface density are reported, in excellent agreement with semi-infinite space-charge calculations, assuming a redistribution of fluoride ions at the interfaces.
