Solid oxide cells (SOCs) are highly efficient and environmentally benign devices that can be
used to store renewable electrical energy in the form of fuels such as hydrogen in the solid …

We use first-principles calculations to investigate the stability of biaxially strained Pnma
perovskite CaMnO 3 towards the formation of oxygen vacancies. Our motivation is provided …

Perovskite oxides have high catalytic activities for oxygen electrocatalysis competitive to
platinum at elevated temperatures. However, little is known about the oxide surface …

Optimization of electrical, optical, mechanical, and other properties of many advanced,
functional materials today relies on precise control of point defects. This article illustrates the …

Oxygen vacancy distributions and dynamics directly control the operation of solid-oxide fuel
cells and are intrinsically coupled with magnetic, electronic and transport properties of …

The existing Ni-yttria-stabilized zirconia anodes in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) perform
poorly in carbon-containing fuels because of coking and deactivation at desired operating …
