Influence of codoping on the conductivity of Sc-doped zirconia by first-principles calculations and experiments

Doped zirconia is a promising electrolyte candidate for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs). The effects of dopants and their interactions with oxygen vacancies on the conduction properties have been systematically investigated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations and experiments. The influenc...
