“…Upon oxidation, these metal nano particles redissolve in the oxide lattice and subsequent reduction causes precipitation of fresh metal nano particles again available for enhanced performance. This regenerative behaviour of nano particles reduces the anode degradation [26,27].…”

“…So far, this concept has only been demonstrated for A to B stoichiometric perovskites (A/B = 1) and only for a limited number of easily reducible, catalytically active cations (Ni 2+ , Ru 2+ , Rh 4+ , Pd 4+ and Pt 4+ -see Supplementary Figure S1), because the exsolution phenomenon is believed to be exclusively driven by the ease with which these cations reduce to metals [6][7][8][9][10] .…”

In situ growth of nanoparticles through control of non-stoichiometry

Surfaces decorated with uniformly dispersed catalytically active nanoparticles play a key role in many fields, including renewable energy and catalysis. Typically, these structures are prepared by deposition techniques, but alternatively they could be made by growing the nanoparticles in situ directly from the (porous) backbone support. Here we demonstrate that growing nano-size phases from perovskites can be controlled through judicious choice of composition, particularly by tuning deviations from the ideal ABO 3 stoichiometry. This non-stoichiometry facilitates a change in equilibrium position to make particle exsolution much more dynamic, enabling the preparation of compositionally diverse nanoparticles (that is, metallic, oxides or mixtures) and seems to afford unprecedented control over particle size, distribution and surface anchorage. The phenomenon is also shown to be influenced strongly by surface reorganization characteristics. The concept exemplified here may serve in the design and development of more sophisticated oxide materials with advanced functionality across a range of possible domains of application.

“…Electrolyte supported SOFCs were fabricated similar to the devices previously described [11,13]. LSGM was prepared by a solid state reaction: appropriate quantities of La 2 O 3 , SrCO 3 , and Ga 2 O 3 and MgO were mixed in ethanol, dried, and calcined at 1,250°C.…”

The electrolyte/anode interface in solid oxide fuel cells with La0.9Sr0.1Ga0.8Mg0.2O3–δ electrolytes and composite anodes containing La0.8Sr0.2Cr0.82Ru0.18O3–δ and Ce0.9Gd0.1O2–δ (GDC) was studied using transmission electron microscope Z‐contrast imaging and energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy. The anode/electrolyte interface of an operated cell had numerous defective regions in the electrolyte, immediately adjacent to anode GDC particles. These areas had a different chemical composition than other electrolyte regions and were crystallographically inhomogeneous. These regions were not observed in a cell reduced in hydrogen that was not operated, suggesting that they were the result of combined electrical and chemical potential gradients present during cell operation. Ru nanoparticles were observed on the chromite surfaces of the operated.
