The potential energy landscape (PEL) of ions in an amorphous solid is of crucial importance for many macroscopic transport processes, e.g. in energy storage materials. A distribution of site energies will translate into a variation of effective transport coefficients. This work demonstrates a new approach for directly deriving the complete energy distribution of populated sites from an experiment, in which basically all ions of one kind are depleted by the charge attachment-induced transport technique (CAIT). CAIT leads to concentration depletion profiles, which can be analyzed quantitatively by means of the Nernst-Planck-Poisson theory. The analysis provides direct access to the diffusion coefficient as a function of the site energy, which can be uniquely transformed into a populated site energy distribution. A key point of the concept proposed is the variation of ionic Fermi levels with the occupation of available sites. As an example, we consider the PEL of sodium ions in a calcium-phosphate glass. The energy distribution of populated sites has a width of 0.28 eV FWHM corresponding to a variation of diffusion coefficients over more than three orders of magnitude. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.
