Theoretical and experimental investigation on using Arrhenius equation to analyze conductivities of proton ceramic electrolytes
Protonic ceramic electrolytes (PCEs) are widely applied to proton ceramic electrochemical cells. The Arrhenius equation is commonly used to analyze the electrical conductivity of PCEs. However, for the same material, the activation energy () derived from this equation varies in different studies, raising concerns about its reliability. In this study, to clarify this issue, a precise defect model, considering proton defects, oxygen vacancies, and electron-holes, is established to analyze the experimentally measured conductivities of BaZr0.8Y0.2O3 (BZY82). determined by the Arrhenius equation under various conditions are compared with those from the precise model. Based on the investigation, new practical guidelines for using the Arrhenius equation to analyze the conduction properties of PCEs are provided.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies and reviews related to the electronic, electrochemical, ionic, magnetic, optical, and biosensing properties of solid state materials in bulk, thin film and particulate forms. Papers dealing with synthesis, processing, characterization, structure, physical properties and computational aspects of nano-crystalline, crystalline, amorphous and glassy forms of ceramics, semiconductors, layered insertion compounds, low-dimensional compounds and systems, fast-ion conductors, polymers and dielectrics are viewed as suitable for publication. Articles focused on nano-structured aspects of these advanced solid-state materials will also be considered suitable.
