Abstract

Rapid oxygen transport across the gas/solid interface (oxygen exchange) is critical for solid oxide fuel cell electrode performance. In this work, La and Sm are shown to dramatically improve the oxygen exchange rate on Pr0.1Ce0.9O2-δ thin films (>50 x at 450 °C) as compared to a freshly deposited film without La or Sm oxide. A surface cleaning effect from the La and Sm is suspected as the source of the enhancement, though catalytic activity from La and Sm may also play a role.
