Materials with high oxygen ion conductivity and low electronic conductivity are required for
electrolytes in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) and high-temperature electrolysis (SOEC). A …

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) are under intensive investigation since the 1980's as these
devices open the way for ecologically clean direct conversion of the chemical energy into …

The formation and migration of oxygen vacancies in the series of (La, Sr)(Co, Fe) O3− δ
perovskites, which can be used as mixed conducting SOFC cathode materials and oxygen …

Transition metal oxides have been extensively investigated as novel catalysts for oxygen
evolution reaction (OER). Partial elemental substitutions are effective ways to increase …

The rate of oxygen ion jumps in a solid oxide depends not only on the activation energy but
also on the pre-exponential factor of diffusion. In order to allow a fully ab initio prediction of …

The oxygen ion conductivity of polycrystalline samples of Sm‐doped ceria and of Gd‐doped
ceria is studied as a function of do** fraction and temperature using impedance …

The processes of oxygen tracer diffusion and oxygen surface exchange in acceptor-doped
oxides displaying high rates of oxygen transport are examined. Literature data are analysed …

We have performed an in‐depth ab initio study of the magnetic structure within the most
active perovskites for the oxygen evolution reaction. In all cases, the ground state exhibits an …

We have studied the free energy migration barriers Δ F‡ for oxygen diffusion in pure ceria
and Sm-doped ceria for the temperatures 300, 700, and 1000 K. We used the density …

Germanium telluride (GeTe) is an iconic functional material, both in itself and as the parent
compound for a range of ternary phase-change data-storage alloys. Long taken to be a …
