Controlling and understanding electro-chemo-mechanical properties of layered cuprate thin films

Surface exchange kinetics are a key indicator of performance for electrochemical devices including solid oxide fuel cells. Due to broad flexibility in dopant selection and concentration, mixed ionic-electronic conducting (MIEC) ABO₃ perovskite oxides have been extensively explored as model systems to understand oxygen surface exchange kinetics for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) electrodes. Traditionally, transport properties are examined as functions of type and concentration of aliovalent cations, requiring multiple samples, resulting in changes in multiple characteristics and properties, often unintended. Moreover, the perovskite oxides generally accommodate only oxygen vacancies and not interstitials.
