For an efficient high-temperature reversible solid oxide fuel cell (RSOFC), the oxygen electrode should be highly active for the conversion between oxygen anions and oxygen gas. CaMnO3−δ (CM) is a perovskite that can be readily reduced with the formation of Mn3+ giving rise to oxygen defective phases. CM is examined here as the oxygen electrode for a RSOFC. CaMn0.9Nb0.1O3−δ (CMN) with Nb doping shows superior electric conductivity (125 S cm−1 at 700 °C) compared with CM (1–5 S cm−1 at 700 °C) in air which is also examined for comparison. X-ray diffraction (XRD) data show that CM and CMN are compatible with the widely used yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte up to 950 °C. Both materials show a thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) close to 10.8–10.9 ppm K−1 in the temperature range between 100–750 °C, compatible with that of YSZ. Polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectra for both fuel cell and steam electrolysis modes were investigated at 700 °C, showing that CM presented a polarization resistance of 0.059 Ω cm2 under a cathodic bias of −0.4 V while CMN gave a polarization resistance of 0.081 Ω cm2 under an anodic bias of 0.4 V. The phase stability up to 900 °C of these materials was investigated with thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and variable temperature XRD.

Electrochemical Impedance Spectra

Recent research results show that homogeneity and microstructure are very important parameters for the development of low cost materials with better performance for fuel cell applications. This research effort has been contributed in the development of low temperature solid oxide fuel cell (LTSOFC) material and technology as well as applications for polygeneration. The microstructure and electrochemical analyses were conducted. We found a series of new electrode materials which can run solid oxide fuel cell at 300–600°C range with high performances, e.g., a high power density output of 980 mW cm−2 was obtained at 570°C. The fuel cell electrodes were prepared from metal oxide materials through a solid state reaction and then mixed with doped ceria. The obtained results have many advantages for the development of LTSOFCs for polygeneration. The nanostructure of the anode has been studied by high-resolution electron microscopy, the crystal structure and lattice parameters have also been studied by X-ray diffraction. The electrical conductivity of the composite anode was studied by electrochemical impedance spectra.
