摘要
Alkaline earth metals (Ca, Sr, Ba) substituted lanthanum copper oxides were investigated to evaluate their potentials as cathode materials for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell (IT-SOFC). The crystal structure, thermal expansion and electrochemical performance of La1-x AE (x) CuO3-delta (x=0.3, AE=Ca, Sr, Ba) were studied by X-ray diffraction, thermal dilatometer and impedance spectra, respectively. By lowering the size of the A-site cation in ABO(3) perovskite, a lower thermal expansion and polarization resistance were obtained forCa-doped LaCuO3-delta cathode which showed an area specific resistance of 0.19 Omega cm(-2) under open circuit potential conditions at 800 degrees C, and a polarization overpotential of 52 mV at a current density of 0.1 A/cm(2) at 700 degrees C, being a potential candidate of cathode material for IT-SOFCs.
