Surface-Engineered LSCF Electrode via PrNi0.7Co0.3O3-delta Infiltration for Superior Performance and Stability in Reversible Protonic Ceramic Cells
New Publication in Small
Our latest work, “Surface-Engineered LSCF Electrode via PrNi0.7Co0.3O3-δ Infiltration for Superior Performance and Stability in Reversible Protonic Ceramic Cells”, has been published in Small.
In this study, I contributed the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, investigating the oxygen evolution/reduction reaction energetics and the role of oxygen vacancies in pristine and defective PNC structures. The calculations reveal how defect engineering modifies reaction energetics and enhances catalytic activity, providing atomistic insight into the experimentally observed improvement in electrode performance and stability.
The combined theoretical and experimental results demonstrate an effective surface-engineering strategy for high-performance reversible protonic ceramic cells.
