Remarkable enhancement of the electrical conductivity and electrocatalytic activity is demonstrated as a result of the transformation of crystal structure between Sr 2 Mn 2 O 6 and CaSrMn 2 O 6. The structure of Sr 2 Mn 2 O 6 is known to consist of dimeric units of face-sharing MnO 6 octahedra. Whereas, CaSrMn 2 O 6 contains individual octahedra, connected to each other through corner-sharing. Herein we show that the changes in the crystal structure result in significant improvement of the electrical conductivity, by five orders of magnitude, for CaSrMn 2 O 6 , compared to Sr 2 Mn 2 O 6. Variable temperature conductivity studies from 25-800°C indicate semiconducting properties for both compounds, where the enhanced conductivity of CaSrMn 2 O 6 persists in the entire temperature range. The electrocatalytic activity of both compounds toward oxygen evolution reaction (OER) has also been investigated, indicating superior OER activity of CaSrMn 2 O 6 compared to Sr 2 Mn 2 O 6. A pronounced improvement in the onset potential and kinetics of OER is observed for CaSrMn 2 O 6. These studies demonstrate an important correlation between crystal structure, electrical conductivity and electrocatalytic properties.
