SrTi1-xFexO3-delta (STF) model cathodes, with compositions of x = 0.05 to 0.80 were deposited onto single crystal yttria stabilized zirconia by pulsed layer deposition as dense films with well defined area and thickness and studied by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy as a function of electrode geometry, temperature and pO(2). The STF cathode was observed to exhibit typical mixed ionic-electronic behavior with the electrode reaction occurring over the full electrode surface area rather than being limited to the triple phase boundary. The electrode impedance was observed to be independent of electrode thickness and to the introduction of CGO interlayers and inversely proportional to the square of the electrode diameter, pointing to surface exchange limited kinetics. Values for the surface exchange coefficient, k. were calculated and found to be comparable in magnitude to those exhibited by other Popular mixed ionic-electronic conductors such as (La,Sr) (Co,Fe)O-3, thereby, confirming the suitability of STIF as a model mixed conducting cathode material. The surface exchange coefficient, k, was also found to be insensitive to orders of magnitude change in both bulk electronic and ionic conductivities. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
