Crystals of a new compound with a superprotonic phase transition Rb2(HSeO4)1.5(H2AsO4)0.5 (noted RbHSeAs), were synthesized by slow evaporation of an aqueous solution at room temperature. The differential scanning calorimetric analyses showed two endothermic peaks at 465 K and 566 K. The last peak corresponds to the decomposition of the material. The first transition was characterized by several techniques (impedance spectroscopy, complex modulus, Raman and X-ray diffraction powder depending on temperature). ac impedance measurements revealed that, upon heating, the compound undergoes at ~ 443 K a sharp increase in conductivity from a low temperature protonic phase to a superprotonic conductivity phase. The activation energies calculated from the modulus (ï„Ef) and impedance (ï„Eï³) spectra respectively are approximately equal, suggesting that the transport properties in this material above and below the superprotonic phase transition (443 K) are probably due to an H+ protons hopping mechanism.
