Abstract
The electrochemical properties of geometrically well-defined
Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-delta (BSCF) microelectrodes have been
investigated by impedance spectroscopy. The microelectrodes of 20-100
pm diameter and 100 nm thickness were prepared by pulsed laser
deposition (PLD), photolithography and argon ion beam etching. The
oxygen reduction reaction at these model electrodes is limited by
interfacial processes, i.e. by the oxygen surface exchange and/or by
the transfer of oxide ions across the electrode/electrolyte boundary,
whereas the resistance associated with the transport of oxide ions
through the bulk of the thin film electrode is negligible. The
experiments revealed an extremely low absolute value of the
electrochemical surface exchange resistance of only 0.09 (+/- 0.03)
Omega cm(2) at 750 degrees C in air, which is more than a factor of 50
lower than the corresponding value measured for
La0.6Sr0.4Co0.8Fe0.2O3-delta (LSCF) microelectrodes of the same
geometry. The dependence of this and other electrochemical quantities
such as the chemical bulk capacitance or the BSCF/YSZ interfacial
resistance on temperature has been studied between 500 and 750 degrees
