Abstract

The electrocatalytic activity of perovskite oxides is fundamentally governed by their electronic structure. However, a deeper understanding of the relationship between the eg electron occupancy and high-temperature oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance in solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs) remains underexplored. Here, A-site doped Pr0.5Ae0.5FeO3−δ (Ae = Ca, Sr, Ba) are constructed with exceptional high-temperature OER performance, and Pr0.5Ba0.5FeO3−δ achieves a current density of 3.33 A cm–2 at 2.0 V and 800 °C. X-ray absorption spectroscopy, 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, and magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal that alkaline earth metal doping induces a spin-state transition from high-spin Fe3+ (t2g3eg2) to low-spin Fe4+ (t2g4eg0), with reduced eg occupancy, thus accelerating the charge transfer and oxygen transport in the OER process. This work sheds light on the critical role of the B-site Fe electronic structure in high-temperature OER performance and provides guidance for the rational design of Fe-based perovskites as SOEC anode materials.
