A simple method has been used to synthesize nanostructured La0.5Ba0.5CoO3 (LBCO) powders, by confining chemical precursors into the pores of polycarbonate filters. The proposed method allows us to obtain powders formed by crystallites of…

In this work we outline the mechanisms contributing to the oxygen reduction reaction in nanostructured cathodes of La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 (LSM) for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC). These cathodes, developed from LSM nanostructured tubes, can be used…

Copper ferrite nanoparticles have catalytic activity for hydrogen peroxide, which can be used in many fields. This characteristic comes from the physical properties of matters at nanometer scale. Thus, controlling the size and aggregation…

Magnetic nanoparticles of La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (LSMO) manganite with mean particle sizes of 13, 16, 18 and 21 nm were prepared by the sol-gel method. The crystal structure and mean particle size of the synthesized powders were estimated by…

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are becoming increasingly important due to their high electrical efficiency, the flexible choice of fuels and relatively low emissions of pollutants. However, the increasingly growing demands for…

Focused ion beam (FIB)-scanning electron microscopy (SEM) allowed the characterization of the microstructure of two solid oxide fuel cells prepared at different sintering temperatures. 3D volume reconstruction showed that a relatively low…

Motivated by recent experimental results, we study the effect of size reduction on half-doped manganite, La$_{0.5}$Ca$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$, using the combination of density functional theory (DFT) and dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). We find…

Micro-solid oxide fuel cells based on thin films have strong potential for use in portable power devices. However, devices based on silicon substrates typically involve thin-film metallic electrodes which are unstable at high temperatures.…

La0.6Sr0.4Fe0.8Mn0.2O3 (LSFM) compound is synthesized by Sol-gel method and evaluated as a cathode material for the intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell (IT-SOFC). X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicates that the LSFM has a Rhombohedral…

Surface stresses, in nano-sized anode particles undergoing chemomechanical interactions, have a relaxing effect on the diffusion-induced stresses thus improving the mechanical endurance of the particles, whereas, the compressive effect of…

A systematic investigation of La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 manganites has been undertaken, mainly to understand the influence of varying crystallite size (nanometer range) on electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and thermoelectric power. The…

Cubic spinel lithium manganese oxide (LiMn2O4) has been able to attract a great deal of attention over the years as a promising cathode material for large scale lithium ion batteries. Here a facile hydrothermal route followed by solid state…

Non-polar magnetic nanoparticles agglomerate upon cooling. This process is followed by in-situ small angle X-ray scattering to assess structural properties of the emerging agglomerates. On the length scale of a few particle diameters, no…
