Abstract: | Electrolytes of Ce1-x-y Y x Mg y O2-0.5x-y were prepared with citrate method and were characterized by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry, energy dispersive spectrometry, powder X-ray diffraction, and impedance spectroscopy. The effect of composition on the structure, conductivity, and stability of the electrolytes were investigated. When 0≤x≤ about 0.2 and 0≤y≤ about 0.05, the electrolytes were all single phase materials of ceria-based solid solution. However, when y> about 0.05, the electrolytes became two-phase materials, Y3+ and Mg2+ co-doped ceria-based solid solution and free MgO. The sample with nominal composition of Ce0.815Y0.065Mg0.12O2-d showed ionic conductivity at 973 K close to or even a little higher than that of similarly prepared Ce0.9Gd0.1O1.95, but had lower cost of raw materials and a little better stability in reducing atmosphere. The existing of free MgO improved the stability of the electrolytes in reducing atmosphere, but too much free MgO reduced the conductivity. |
