Dear Colleagues,
This week I would like to draw your attention to the following paper:
Oxygen diffusion, incorporation, and desorption coefficients in MIECs. A research paper reporting the determination of oxygen diffusion and surface exchange coefficients (k) of mixed ionic-electronic conductors via a semi-permeation method, particularly under rather high oxygen activity gradients. Figure 8 presents a summary of these coefficients as a function of temperature. More work is still needed to address the discrepancies of k-values in literature. (Contact author: Pierre-Marie Geffroy at: pierre-marie.geffroy@unilim.fr)
We thank all authors and reviewers who contributed to the papers published in the Journal of the Electrochemical Society. We wish you stay safe, pay attention to your health, and make good decisions at work and in life.
With my best wishes!
