摘要

Complex oxides such as transition metal perovskites, particularly ABO_3 perovskites of the type ABO_3 (A=La, B= transition metal, O=oxygen) are promising catalysts for the aqueous oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), with potential application in Alkaline Fuel Cell cathodes. There is a significant interest in using atomistic simulations to help design cathode materials through the study of the nature of surface binding. However, modeling of ORR on perovskite oxides has been previously restricted only to BO_2-terminated surfaces, although in practice a mixture of both AO and BO_2 terminations may exist, as the exact nature of surface termination for thin-film catalyst electrodes is difficult to synthesize as well as characterize. In this study we use Density Functional Theory based thermodynamic modeling to probe the differences in the binding of oxygen (O) and hydroxyl species (OH and OOH,) on the (OOl)-LaO and (001)-BO_2 terminations, with the focus on the material LaCrO_3. We show that in the relevant aqueous conditions for alkaline fuel cell cathodes, surface species ~*OH, ~*OOH and ~*O bind ~2eV more strongly to the LaO-termination compared to the CrO_2-terminated surfaces, and therefore, when the LaO termination is stable, can potentially passivate the oxygen reduction and evolution reaction activity of the thin-films of LaCrO_3.
