제목 Development of cobalt-free LaxSr4-xFe6O13 (0 ≤ x≤ 2) Intergrowth Cathode Material for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
초록  Cobalt-free LaxSr4-xFe6O13 (0 ≤x≤ 2) oxide have been synthesized and investigated as a potential cathode material for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Sr4Fe6O13 consists of alternating perovskite layers (Sr4Fe2O8) containing iron cations in octahedral oxygen coordination and Fe4O5 layers where iron cations have 5-fold coordination of two types-square pyramids and trigonal bipyramids.
 Our preliminary electrochemical testes of pristine Sr4Fe6O13 show a rather high area specific resistance (0.47 Ω cm2 at 700 oC) for ~20 μm thick layers with CGO electrolyte. The electrochemical performances are improved by La addition up to x=1 (La1Sr3Fe6O13, 0.06 Ω cm2 at 700 oC). In addition, thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) values of La1Sr3Fe6O13 specimen demonstrated 15.1 x 10-6 oC-1 in the range of 25-900 oC, which provides good thermal expansion compatibility with the CGO electrolyte. An electrolyte supported (300-μm-thick) single-cell configuration of La1Sr3Fe6O13/CGO/Ni-CGO delivered a maximum power density of 584 mWcm-2 at 700 oC. In addition, an anode supported single cell by YSZ electrolyte (10-μm-thick) with a porous CGO interlayer between the cathode and the electrolyte to avoid undesired interfacial reactions exhibited 1517 mWcm-2 at 800 oC. The unique composition of La1Sr3Fe6O13 with low thermal expansion coefficient and higher electrochemical properties could be a good cathode candidate for intermediate temperature SOFCs with CGO and YSZ electrolyte.
