Abstract
The molecular dynamics method was used to study the peculiarities of ion transport in α-TeO2 paratellurite crystals. It has been shown that in α-TeO2, ion transport caused by oxygen transfer is anisotropic. The highest values of diffusion coefficients are observed along the c-axis and amount to DO~ 1×10–7 cm2/s at temperatures near the melting point. It has been shown that oxygen ions jump over distances of 1.5–2.5 Å via a vacancy or interstitial mechanism.

Large spheres are oxygen in crystallographic positions, small grey and black spheres are possible intermediate positions of oxygen for “channels” of two types. Arrows show possible trajectories of oxygen movement in the direction of the c axis (a) and in the directions of the axes a, b (b).
