Isolated anion vacancies and vacancy pairs were found to contribute to anion mass transport, as deduced from the anion tracer self-diffusivities in pure or doped (up to 2.5mol%Cd) specimens (table 44). The data were analyzed by using the Lidiard-Debye-Hückel theory. The diffusion parameters were normal, and both pairs and single vacancies made comparable contributions to anion diffusion.
