Abstract
Rutile-type Co0.5Ti0.5NbO4 (CTO)-based materials doped with Fe3+ or Ni2+ were investigated as cathode electrodes to modify their electrical conductivity and electrocatalysis toward CO2 splitting. Higher electric conductivity was found in Co0.4Fe0.2Ti0.4NbO4 (CTO-Fe, 0.78 S cm-1) and Co0.25Ni0.25Ti0.5NbO4 (CTO-Ni, 2.10 S cm-1) compared to CTO (0.49 S cm-1) after the reduction at 800 °C in Ar-5% H2. Co and Co-Ni particles exsolved in situ from the surface of CTO, CTO-Fe, and CTO-Ni after reduction. CTO-Ni and CTO-Fe cathodes did better in the CO2 electrolysis at 800 °C than the CTO one, but the CTO-Ni cell was unstable after 10 h of operation due to the carbon deposition that blocked the electrode. The cell with CTO-Fe demonstrated a good stability for CO2 splitting in 100 h. This work demonstrates that rutile-type CTO-based cathodes are promising to provide an efficient and candidate oxide cathode for the electrolysis of CO2.

JOURNAL OF MATERIALS CHEMISTRY. A 2024; 12:20386-20402.

Abstract
In this work, we show how the activity states of bimetallic Ni0-Fe0 catalysts exsolved from Nd0.6Ca0.4Fe0.97Ni0.03O3-δ (NCFNi) can be influenced electrochemically. The NCFNi parent oxide was employed in the form of thin film mixed conducting model electrodes, which were operated in a humid hydrogen atmosphere. By precisely controlling the oxygen chemical potential in the parent oxide electrode via applying an electrochemical polarisation, we managed to selectively exsolve Ni nanoparticles from the perovskite lattice and study their catalytic activity switching characteristics. To be able to track the surface chemical changes during the switching process, electrochemical polarisation experiments were combined with near ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-XPS) measurements. This in situ analytical approach allowed relating the difference we observed in the switching behaviour of Ni particles here and of Fe particles in a recent study, to a different kinetic interplay between electrochemical driving force and atmosphere. We propose that slow oxygen transport through nickel oxide, located at the particle/perovskite interface, is mainly responsible for the observed difference to iron exsolutions, which becomes especially evident for larger nickel particles. In addition, in the case of bimetallic exsolutions and with applied bias voltage as a control parameter, we are able to reversibly switch between three different activity states, namely bimetallic Ni0-Fe0 (medium activity), pure Ni0 (high activity), and the inactive oxides.

Abstract
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are highly efficient and environmentally friendly devices for converting fuel into electrical energy. In this regard, metal nanoparticles (NPs) loaded onto the anode oxide play a crucial role due to their exceptional catalytic activity. NPs synthesized through exsolution exhibit excellent dispersion and stability, garnering significant attention for comprehending the exsolution process mechanism and consequently improving synthesis effectiveness. This review presents recent advancements in the exsolution process, focusing on the influence of oxygen vacancies, A-site defects, lattice strain, and phase transformation on the variation of the octahedral crystal field in perovskites. Moreover, we offer insights into future research directions to further enhance our understanding of the mechanism and achieve significant exsolution of NPs on perovskites.

Abstract
Manganese dioxide is a good candidate for effective energy storage and conversion as it possesses rich electrochemistry. The compound also shows a wide polymorphism. The γ-variety, an intergrowth of β- and R-MnO2, has been extensively studied in several types of batteries (e.g., Zn/MnO2, Li-ion) and is a common electrode material for commercial batteries. It is well known that the insertion of protons thermodynamically stabilizes γ-MnO2 with respect to β-MnO2. Protons can enter the structure either by forming groups of 4 hydroxyls around a Mn4+ vacancy, called a Ruetschi defect, or by forming a hydroxyl group near a Mn3+ ion, called a Coleman defect. These defects differently affect the electrochemistry of manganese oxide, and tailoring their amount in the structure can be used to tune the material properties. Previous studies have addressed the proton insertion process, but the role of the synthesis pathway on the amount of defects created is not well understood. We here investigate how the parameters in a hydrothermal synthesis of γ-MnO2 nanoparticles influence the amount and type of H-related defects. Structural investigations are carried out using Pair Distribution Function analysis, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and inelastic neutron scattering. We demonstrate the possibility to control the amount and type of defects introduced during the synthesis. While the amount of Ruetschi defects increases with synthesis temperature, it decreases with extended synthesis time, along with the amount of Coleman defects. Moreover, we discuss the arrangement of the defects in the γ-MnO2 nanoparticles.

Abstract
Perovskites are very promising materials for a wide range of applications (such as catalysis, solid oxide fuel cells…) due to beneficial general properties (e.g. stability at high temperatures) and tunability - doping both A- and B-site cations opens the path to a materials design approach that allows specific properties to be finely tuned towards applications. A major asset of perovskites is the ability to form nanoparticles on the surface under certain conditions in a process called "exsolution". Exsolution leads to the decoration of the material's surface with finely dispersed nanoparticles (which can be metallic or oxidic - depending on the experimental conditions) made from B-site cations of the perovskite lattice (here, doping comes into play, as B-site doping allows control over the constitution of the nanoparticles). In fact, the ability to undergo exsolution is one of the main reasons that perovskites are currently a hot topic of intensive research in catalysis and related fields. Exsolution on perovskites has been heavily researched in the last couple of years: various potential catalysts have been tested with different reactions, the oxide backbone materials and the exsolved nanoparticles have been investigated with a multitude of different methods, and the effect of different exsolution parameters on the resulting nanoparticles has been studied. Despite all this, to our knowledge no comprehensive effort was made so far to evaluate these studies with respect to the effect that the exsolution conditions have on anchorage and morphology of the nanoparticles. Therefore, this highlight aims to provide an overview of nanoparticles exsolved from oxide-based perovskites with a focus on the conditions leading to nanoparticle exsolution.

Abstract
Perovskite anodes with in situ exsolved nanocatalysts have been proven to overcome carbon deposition and increase anode catalytic activity as an alternative to conventional Ni/YSZ anodes for direct hydrocarbon solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). This study, for the first time, demonstrates the state-of-the-art exsolution over cathode-supported SOFCs, which achieve the highest cell performance compared to conventional electrolyte-supported SOFCs with perovskite anodes using CH4 as a fuel. The dendritic channel structure of cathode supports retains a high active surface during high-temperature electrolyte sintering. Sr2Ti0.8Co0.2FeO6-δ perovskite ceramic is employed as anodes, and Co-Fe alloy nanoparticles are exsolved after reduction, which increases the cell power output by about 40%. The peak power densities of the cells are 0.82, 0.59, 0.43, and 0.33 W cm-2 at 800 °C using hydrogen, methane, methanol, and ethanol, respectively. The SOFCs with the exsolved nanocatalysts demonstrate stable power generation up to 110 h using methane, methanol, and ethanol fuels. Interestingly, the perovskite anodes show high methane fuel utilization by the complete oxidation of methane, which is in contrast to the partial oxidation over Ni catalysts. Robust hydrocarbon SOFCs have been developed by coupling anode catalyst exsolution with dendritically channeled cathode supports.

Abstract
The development of anodes with highly efficient electrochemical catalysis and good durability is crucial for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). This paper reports a superior Ru-doped La0.4Sr0.4Ti0.85Ni0.15O3-δ (L0.4STN) anode material with excellent catalytic activity and good stability. The doping of Ru can inhibit the agglomeration of in situ-exsolved Ni nanoparticles on the surface and induce the formation of abundant multiple-twinned defects in the perovskite matrix, which significantly increase the concentration of oxygen vacancies. The reduced L0.4STRN (R-L0.4STRN) anode shows an area-specific resistance (ASR) of 0.067 Ω cm2 at 800 °C, which is only about one-third of that of stochiometric R-L0.6STN (0.212 Ω cm2). A single cell with the R-L0.4STRN anode shows excellent stability (∼50 h at 650 °C) in both H2 and CH4. Furthermore, R-L0.4STRN exhibits outstanding resistance to carbon deposition, which can be attributed to the synergistic effect of highly dispersed Ni nanoparticles and active twinned defects induced by Ru doping.

Abstract
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are emerging as energy conversion devices for large-scale electrical power generation because of their high energy conversion efficiency, excellent ability to minimize air pollution, and high fuel flexibility. In this context, this critical review has focussed on the recent advancements in developing a suitable electrolyte for SOFCs which has been required for the commercialization of SOFC technology after emphasizing the literature from the prior studies. In particular, the significant developments in the field of solid oxide electrolytes for SOFCs, particularly zirconia- and ceria-based electrolytes, have been highlighted as important advancements toward the production of sustainable and clean energy. It has been reported that among various electrolyte materials, zirconia-based electrolytes have the potential to be utilized as the electrolyte in SOFC because of their high thermal stability, non-reducing nature, and high mechanical strength, along with acceptable oxygen ion conductivity. However, some studies have proved that the zirconia-based electrolytes are not suitable for low and intermediate-temperature working conditions because of their poor ionic conductivity to below 850 °C. On the other hand, ceria-based electrolytes are being investigated at a rapid pace as electrolytes for intermediate and low-temperature SOFCs due to their higher oxygen ion conductivity with good electrode compatibility, especially at lower temperatures than stabilized zirconia. In addition, the most emerging advancements in electrolyte materials have demonstrated that the intermediate temperature SOFCs as next-generation energy conversion technology have great potential for innumerable prospective applications.

Abstract
Supported bimetallic nanoparticles used for various chemical transformations appear to be more appealing than their monometallic counterparts, because of their unique properties mainly originating from the synergistic effects between the two different metals. Exsolution, a relatively new preparation method for supported nanoparticles, has earned increasing attention for bimetallic systems in the past decade, not only due to the high stability of the resulting nanoparticles but also for the potential to control key particle properties (size, composition, structure, morphology, etc.). In this review, we summarize the trends and advances on exsolution of bimetallic systems and provide prospects for future studies in this field.
