High-surface-area, dual-function oxygen electrocatalysts for space power applications

The processes of hydration/dehydration and carbonation/decarbonation are investigated as an approach to provide higher surface area mixed metal oxides that are more active electrochemically. These materials are candidates for use as electrocatalysts and electrocatalyst supports for alkaline electrolyzers and fuel cells. For the case of the perovskite, LaCoO3 , higher surface areas were achieved with no change in structure and a more active oxygen electrocatalyst.

X-Ray Photoemission Measurements of La(1-x)Ca(x)CoO3(x = 0, 0.5)

X-ray photoemission measurements of the core levels and valence electronic structure of LaCoO3 and La(0.5)Ca(0.5)CoO3 high quality epitaxial films are presented. Shifts of the core levels and main valence band features are consistent with a doping-induced change in the chemical potential. Oxygen states are found to significantly contribute to a peak in the valence band at 1 eV binding energy, verifying earlier results of cluster calculations. A Fermi level crossing of this same band upon doping is observed, yielding a high Fermi level density of states.
