NdCeO3
semiconductorNdCeO3 is a mixed rare-earth oxide ceramic compound combining neodymium and cerium in a perovskite or fluorite-based crystal structure, primarily investigated as a research material rather than a widely commercialized engineering ceramic. This composition is studied for applications requiring oxygen-ion conductivity and thermal stability, particularly in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and as an electrolyte or electrode material where the rare-earth dopants improve ionic transport and reduce operating temperatures. Its significance lies in the potential to enable more efficient electrochemical energy conversion by lowering the thermal requirements compared to conventional yttria-stabilized zirconia, though optimization of dopant ratios and sintering methods remains an active area of materials research.
