Ca3Dy3Ti7Ta2O26.5 and Ca3Er3Ti7Ta2O26.5 oxides were synthesized using a high-temperature solid-state fritting technique, and the thermophysical performances of these two oxides were investigated. Both Ca3Dy3Ti7Ta2O26.5 and Ca3Er3Ti7Ta2O26.5 show a monophasic pyrochlore-type lattice. The thermal conductivity of Ca3Er3Ti7Ta2O26.5 is lower than that of Ca3Dy3Ti7Ta2O26.5. The oxides exhibit lower thermal conductivities than YSZ owing to their complex elemental compositions, large number of ions, and high oxygen vacancy concentrations. The thermal exp...
