Solid oxide cells (SOCs) have the potential to be the most efficient energy storage and
conversion systems. To minimize energy loss due to charge and mass transport associated …

Most of the paradigms in materials science and technology firmly rely on equilibrium
materials, ie, phases with the lowest Gibbs energy under thermodynamic conditions. In …

Semiconducting-ionic conductors have been recently described as excellent electrolyte
membranes for low-temperature operation solid oxide fuel cells (LT-SOFCs). In the present …

Recent progress has led to conductance confinement at the interface of complex oxide
heterostructures, thereby providing new opportunities to explore nano-electronic as well as …

Gd-doped ceria (CGO) fluorite exhibits prominent electro-chemo-mechanical properties and
giant-electrostriction at room temperature and has been recently disclosed in both CGO …

By first-principles calculations using the projector-augmented-wave (PAW) method, the
oxygen vacancy formation energy of gadolinium-doped ceria (GDC) is calculated as a …

Exploiting the electronic charge-transfer across oxide interfaces has emerged as a versatile
tool to tailor the electronic and magnetic properties of oxides. Such charge-transfer concepts …

A modulated coherent (La, Sr) CoO3− δ/(Ce, Gd) O2− δ heterostructure is characterized for
the first time for its electronic and chemical properties. 2D-multilayer architectures are …

Thin films of nominally pure and 10 mol% Gd-doped ceria were grown on Al2O3⟨ 11̅02⟩(r-
cut) and MgO⟨ 100⟩ substrates with pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Their electrical …

The effect of mechanical strain on the electrical properties of Gd-doped CeO2 (GDC) thin
films, which was induced by the structural change in the crystalline lattice, was investigated …
