The electrode properties of Ba0.5Sr0.5CoyFe1-yO3-δ {BSCF(5/5/10y/10(1-y))} on a Ce0.8Sm0.2O1.9
electrolyte were investigated. BSCF powders were synthesized by a solid-state reaction. The
electronic conductivities of BSCFs increased with increasing Co content and BSCF(5/5/8/2) showed
the highest conductivity of 38 S cm-1 at 600oC. The electrode resistance was measured on
symmetric cells, BSCF/Ce0.8Sm0.2O1.9/BSCF, over the temperature range from 600oC to 800oC. The
electrode resistances decreased with increasing Co content and BSCF(5/5/8/2) showed the lowest
electrode resistance in the whole temperature range, having an electrode resistance of 0.62 cm2 at
600oC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
