A wide variety of electropositive elements of the periodic table can be inserted into the vacant sites in the host framework structure of hexagonal NbTiP3O12 (an analog of nasicon) to give rise to isostructural phases. Synthesis, characterization, and preliminary data on the structure, IR spectra, and electrical resistivity are presented. Possible areas for further exploration are delineated. © 1987 Academic Press, Inc. All rights reserved.
