Abstract: La and Yb were incorporated as co-doping elements into Zr-doped ceria to investigate the influence of doping ions by means of ionic radius and valence on the ceria crystal lattice and potentially on thermodynamic and kinetic properties relevant to solar-driven two-step thermochemical CO2 splitting. Both Zr–La and Zr–Yb co-doped ceria clearly exhibited better reduction capability … Continue reading Published at Materials Today Energy – Strategic co-doping of ceria for improved oxidation kinetics in solar thermochemical fuel production
