Abstract

Members of the Ruddlesden-Popper system, La2Ni(1-x)CoxO4+δ (0.00 ≤ × ≤ 1.00), were synthesized and studied for their potential use as cathodes for solid-oxide fuel cells. An unusual structural trend has been noted across the series, which appears to correlate with the oxygen-hyperstoichiometry observed. Details of the structural variance by x-ray and neutron diffraction, as well as selected physical properties for this system will be presented.
