A novel two-step Isotopic Exchange (IE) technique has been developed to investigate the influence of oxygen containing components of ambient air (such as H2O and CO2) on the effective surface exchange coefficient (k*) of a common mixed ionic electronic conductor material.

ABSTRACTThe surface exchange coefficient, ki, of the mixed ionic electronic conductor perovskite, La0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Ga0.2O3−δ, was determined in the temperature range 600-900°C by electrical conductivity relaxation on thin plate and long bar samples, using four probe dc conductivity measurements. The normalized conductivity could be fitted by the equation corresponding to surface limited relaxation, (σ(t) − σ1) / (σ2 − σ1) = 1 − exp(−t / Tr), where τ = l1l2 / [(l1 + l2)Γki], σ(t), σ1 and σ2 are the time dependent, initial and final conductivities, Γ is the thermodynamic factor and 21, and 212 are the lateral sides of the bar. Numerical simulation shows that the shape of the relaxation curve for the plate geometry changes only little in going from surface limited to diffusion limited transport, the change is significantly larger for the bar geometry.

AbstractLa0.5Sr0.5CoO3−δ (LSCO) can be used as a cathode material for low temperature solid oxide fuel cell applications. LSCO epitaxial thin films have been deposited on LaAlO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The transient behavior of the thin film conductivity with the pressure changes was recorded as a function of temperature and partial oxygen pressure. The surface exchange coefficient k of the LSCO thin film was obtained from analysis of the electrical conductivity relaxation data. The measured surface exchange coefficient increases with temperature and with final pressure but is not sensitive to the initial pressure. After prolonged annealing at 900°C, the k value was found to have greatly increased. The mechanism of the dependence of the measured k on pressure is discussed.
