“…Structural investigations of the SrCoO 2.5 → SrCoO 3.0 transformation observed by in situ neutron and XAFS methods, have shown the formation of several intermediate phases, and a non linear evolution of the Co valence state from Co 3+ to Co 4+ , allowing us to monitor the complexity of low temperature solid state reaction mechanisms and suggesting the transient formation of O − species. In this regard, it is worth mentioning the recent DFT study (SLDA approximation) by Tapilin et al, who investigated the electronic structures of SrCoO x ( x = 3, 2.875, and 2.75). Two kinds of oxygen vacancy ordering, more stable than the random vacancy distribution were revealed.…”

International audienceLow temperature oxygen ionic conductors are key materials for the development of the next generation solid oxide fuel cells. In this regard, SrMO2.5 (M = Fe,Co) systems with a Brownmillerite-type structure are able to reversibly intercalate oxygen in an electrochemical reaction at room temperature to reach SrMO3 stoichiometry. To understand and characterize this behavior, at the atomic level, in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy experiments during the electrochemical oxidation reaction were performed for both SrFeO2.5 and SrCoO2.5 compounds at the Fe and Co K-edge, respectively. The comparative analysis of the two experiments allowed us to emphasize the similarities and differences observed during electrochemical oxidation of the two parent compounds. The data were analyzed both in XANES and EXAFS regions to extract both electronic configuration and local order information. To extract as much information as possible from collected data, the standard linear combination of spectra was complemented by the principal component analysis advanced method, which allowed us to clarify some aspects of the reaction process that were otherwise hidden. As for SrCoO2.5+x ordered intermediates (x = 0.25, 0.375) that could have been identified by neutron diffraction and XAFS experiments [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2006, 128, 13161], no ordered intermediates of the homologous SrFeO2.5+x different from an oxygen deficient perovskite phase have been reported to occur during the oxygen intercalation reaction, except on a very local level. However, a detailed fit of the EXAFS signals for starting and final phases showed that the final fully oxidized compound (with stoichiometry SrCoO3) has been obtained for SrCoO2.5, whereas for SrFeO2.5, the reaction ended before the expected charge transfer. We interpret the formation of SrFeO3 to be accompanied by the parasitic formation of an unknown phase, containing Fe(III). Furthermore we were able to highlight that, at a local level, the most probable space group for SrCoO2.5 at ambient temperature is Imma, as the average local environments extracted from Pnma and I2mb models were not able to reproduce the experimental EXAFS spectrum

“…Ylvisacker et al 68 have examined the orbital ordering and magnetic properties in the peroxide RbO 2 . Tapilin et al 69 used LDSA DFT calculations to study SrCoO x with x = 3, 2.875 and 2.75. They found that all three solids have metallic conductivity, but as LDA is known to underestimate band gaps, it could be worth checking whether this remains true for +U or hybrid calculations.…”
