Abstract

Composites of LSCF($La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_{3-\delta}$ and CGO(gadolinium doped ceria) is an efficient candidate cathode material with CGO electrolytes. In this study, LSCF with exact perovskite structure was synthesized by using solid state reaction(SSR) method. The optimized temperature to synthesize $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_{3-\delta}$ with rhombohedral structure. was $1100^{\circ}C$. The polarization resistance of the LSCF/CGO(50:50 wt.%) was smaller than those of other composite cathodes. The analysis of the EIS data of LSCF/CGO suggests that the diffusion and adsorption-desorption of oxygen can be the key process in the cathodic reaction of SOFC using LSCF/CGO as cathode material.
