The electrical conductivity of yttrium-doped SrTiO3 with transition metals added as acceptor dopants (V, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Mo, Mg, Zr, Al, or Ga) was measured by the dc four-probe method at 600-900degreesC in reducing atmospheres. The replacement of 5 mol% titanium by acceptors leads to a decrease of conductivity of Sr1-1.5xYxTiO3-delta. The degree of the decrease depends strongly on the type of dopant. Of the 5 mol% acceptor-doped compositions, the system Sr0.85Y0.10Ti0.95Co0.05O3-delta had the highest conductivity of 45 S/cm at 800degreesC and oxygen partial pressure of 10(-19) atm. The oxidation kinetics of yttrium-doped SrTiO3 was significantly retarded by the addition of cobalt or manganese dopants. The ionic conductivity of SrTiO3 doped with 5 mol% acceptors at Ti-sites was estimated from the total conductivity to lie in the vicinity of 10(-4) S/cm, depending on oxygen partial pressure and temperature.
