24. Here we are ignoring all other defect reactions that might involve oxygen vacancies such as the creation of vacancies through the reduction of tantalum or niobium to +4. Under normal conditions these other contributions are minimal.
25. The time was determined by annealing a KLTN sample at 700 °C repeatedly until the hydrogen concentration remained unchanged after a treatment. The time used in this experiment is double the duration by which the hydrogen concentration had stabilized.
