• SOFC cathode losses depend critically on D
• Surface catalysis correlated with D, strengthening this dependence
• Overall SOFC performance strongly influenced by D - 10x changes matter!

Focus on Perovskites
• [ABO3] perovksites widely used for
fast oxygen conduction applications
• Primary materials for SOFC cathodes
– (La,Sr)MnO3 (LSM)
– (La,Sr)(Co,Fe)O3 (LSCF)
• Also used for SOFC electrolytes
– (La,Sr)(Ga,Mg)O3 (LSGM)
• Very flexible structural family with many opportunities for materials design (dope 90% of periodic table1) 13

terms, anistropy, anharmonicity, electronic effects, numerical issues. 32

SummaryEpitaxial Strain Effects in Perovskites
• Hm(strain) is ~linear for small strains (±2%)
• Slope values investigated range about -20 to -140 meV/%strain.
• Values agree qualitatively with simple Vm strain
model, but not quantitatively – other physics matters!
• Hvf(strain) predicted by simple strain model to
have similar scale slopes as Hm but more
validation is needed
44
• Strain effects can “easily” lead to ~100x improvements (~2% strain) which changes a material’s utility in SOFCs
• Critical next modeling step is to quantitatively assess combined vacancy formation and migration energy changes on D
