dc.description.abstract | The sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) greatly reduces the energy efficiency of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Here we report our findings in dramatically enhancing the ORR kinetics and durability of the state-of-the-art La[subscript 0.6]Sr[subscript 0.4]Co[subscript 0.2]Fe[subscript 0.8]O[subscript 3](LSCF) cathode using a hybrid catalyst coating composed of a conformal PrNi[subscript 0.5]Mn[subscript 0.5]O[subscript 3](PNM) thin film with exsoluted PrOxnanoparticles. At 750°C, the hybrid catalyst-coated LSCF cathode shows a polarization resistance of ∼0.022 Ω cm[superscript 2], about 1/6 of that for a bare LSCF cathode (∼0.134 Ω cm[superscript 2]). Further, anode-supported cells with the hybrid catalyst-coated LSCF cathode demonstrate remarkable peak power densities (∼1.21 W cm[superscript -2]) while maintaining excellent durability (0.7 V for ∼500 h). Near Ambient X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Near Edge X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure (NEXAFS) analyses, together with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, indicate that the oxygen-vacancy-rich surfaces of the PrOxnanoparticles greatly accelerate the rate of electron transfer in the ORR whereas the thin PNM film facilitates rapid oxide-ion transport while drastically enhancing the surface stability of the LSCF electrode. | en_US |
