SmCeO3
semiconductorSmCeO3 is a rare-earth doped ceramic oxide compound combining samarium and cerium in a perovskite or fluorite-related structure, synthesized primarily for electrochemical and photocatalytic applications. This material is largely experimental, investigated in research contexts for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), oxygen ion conductors, and photocatalytic water splitting due to the combined benefits of samarium and cerium's redox activity and oxygen vacancy generation. Its appeal lies in potential cost advantages and enhanced ionic conductivity compared to traditional yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolytes, though industrial adoption remains limited pending demonstration of long-term stability and manufacturing scalability.
