    Area of Science:

    • Materials Science
    • Electrochemistry
    • Computational Materials Science

    Background:

    • La0.9Sr0.1Fe0.9Co0.1O3-δ (LSFC)-Sm0.2Ce0.8O1.9 (SDC) composites are crucial for reversible solid oxide fuel cells (RSOFCs).
    • Understanding ion migration and stress at the electrode pore level is vital for RSOFC performance and durability.
    • Existing models often lack detailed microstructural analysis of ion transport and stress evolution in these materials.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize and analyze Von Mises stress and B-site ion migration within LSFC-SDC electrode particles.
    • To develop and apply an all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) approach for predicting ion diffusion, migration, and stress changes.
    • To investigate the influence of sintering temperature, particle size, mass fraction, and A-site vacancies on these phenomena.

    Main Methods:

    • All-atom (AA) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were employed to model ion diffusion and migration.
    • Analysis of Von Mises stress at the electrode pore level and B-site atom/ion migration within sintering particles.
    • Systematic variation of parameters including sintering temperature, particle size, LSFC:SDC mass ratio, and A-site deficiency.

    Main Results:

    • Positive correlation observed between atom stress of sintered particles and ion migration.
    • Increased sintering temperature (1073 to 1873 K) led to a 26% increase in Fe and Co diffusion coefficients and an 8% increase in stress.
    • Optimized LSFC:SDC ratio (6:4) and 3% A-site deficiency in LSFC yielded the lowest stress and ionic segregation; smaller particles reduced ion diffusion.

    Conclusions:

    • The study provides a deeper understanding of microscopical stress and diffusion mechanisms in sintered LSFC-SDC electrodes.
    • Optimizing sintering conditions, particle size, composition, and stoichiometry is critical for mitigating stress and ion segregation.
    • The findings offer valuable insights for designing more stable and efficient electrodes for reversible solid oxide fuel cells.
