LaCeO3 is a mixed lanthanum-cerium oxide ceramic compound belonging to the perovskite family of materials. It is primarily investigated in research and developmental applications for its ionic conductivity and oxygen ion transport properties, making it of interest for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), oxygen sensors, and catalytic applications where high-temperature performance is critical. This material represents an alternative to yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) for select electrochemical applications, with the lanthanum-cerium combination potentially offering advantages in specific thermal and chemical environments.
