Cation Vacancies in MnO2 and Their Influence on Electrochemical Reactivity
Abstract
Two types of protons must be distinguished in the cation‐deficient ( γ ‐ or ε ‐ ) MnO 2 lattice: localized (Ruetschi) protons, associated with vacancies, and mobile (Coleman) protons, associated with electrons forming Mn 3+ ions. The localized protons provide “proton bridges” for chain‐type proton transfer. Thermogravimetric experiments reveal that the cation vacancy fraction remains invariant during proton (plus electron) insertion and that the cation‐deficient lattice becomes increasingly unstable with increasing degree of (topotactical) reduction. The activation energy of proton (plus electron) diffusion is of similar magnitude as the activation energy of electronic conductivity, while the activation energy of cation (vacancy) diffusion is several times larger.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
