Abstract

The invention is directed to a solid ion conductor which has a garnet-like crystal structure and has the stoichiometric composition L 7+x A x G 3−x Zr 2 O 12 , wherein L is in each case independently a monovalent cation, A is in each case independently a divalent cation, G is in each case independently a trivalent cation, 0≦x≦3 and O can be partly or completely replaced by divalent or trivalent anion.
