Oxygen ion conduction in Solid oxide fuel cells
Fast oxygen ion movement within a solid oxide fuel cell is crucial for achieving high power density. We are currently investigating the effect of local cation environment, defects in the oxide material and many-body interactions on the ionic conductivity of oxygen ions.
