This work presents mixed (FAPbI₃)1-x(MAPbBr₃)x perovskite films with various composition ratios, x (x = 0-1), which are formed using the spin coating method. The structural, optical, and electronic behaviors of the mixed (FAPbI₃)1-x(MAPbBr₃)x perovskite films are discussed. A device with structure glass/indium tin oxide (ITO)/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS)/mi...

Co-doping of yttrium doped mixed barium cerate/zirconate perovskite (BCZY) with small amounts of Pr (BCZYP) substantially increases electrical conductivity while retaining structural and chemical stability. BCZYP is predominantly a proton conductor at temperatures up to 600-650 ̊C, whereas it is a mixed proton/oxide ion/electron conductor at higher temperatures. The co-doped BCZYP perovskite can...

Oxide ion conductors are important materials with a range of technological applications and are currently used as electrolytes for solid oxide fuel cells and solid oxide electrolyzer cells. Here we report the crystal structure and electrical properties of the hexagonal perovskite derivative Ba3MoNbO8.5. Ba3MoNbO8.5 crystallizes in a hybrid of the 9R hexagonal perovskite and palmierite structure...

Organic-inorganic perovskites have shown promise as high-performance absorbers in solar cells, first as a coating on a mesoporous metal oxide scaffold and more recently as a solid layer in planar heterojunction architectures. Here, we report transient absorption and photoluminescence-quenching measurements to determine the electron-hole diffusion lengths, diffusion constants, and lifetimes in m...

a set of multicomponent perovskite oxide nanoparticles based on la1-xsrxco1-yfeyo3-δ(lscf) were prepared by a simple chemical precipitation method for application in low temperature solid oxide fuel cells (lt-sofc) as cathode materials.  the precursor materials used in this synthesis were lanthanum nitrate hexahydrate [la(no3)3.6h2o], strontium nitrate [sr(no3)2], cobalt nitrate hexahydrate [co...

catalysts with the formula of laco(1+x)o(3+δ), where 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, were studied for oxidation of co and c2h6 in a synthetic exhaust gas, comprising 6.0 % co and 0.2 % c2h6 in ar. ethane was selected as a model for hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas. the performance of catalysts is correlated to their properties, particularly their redox in oxidizing and reducing atmospheres. xrd patterns show perovsk...

A simple and efficient route to prepare supported nanocrystalline oxides is presented. The synthesis procedure, i.e. in situ autocombustion of a glycine complex, allows the production of nanocrystals in a porous matrix presenting larger pore size. An example of successful formation of 2-5 nm nanocrystals is given for a single oxide (Fe(2)O(3)), a mixed-oxide structure (LaCoO(3) perovskite-type)...

  Abstract : In this study, we prepared a LaNi0.3Al0.7O3 perovskite catalyst using a sol-gel related method (with prop ionic acid as a solvent) for use in the methane dry reforming reaction to produce synthesis gas. We defined the catalyst structure on the basis of X-ray diffraction analysis and measurements of the specific surface area and particle size distribution. The mixed oxide structure ...
