Multicomponent doping of ceria with four cations is used as a preliminary investigation into the ionic conductivity of high-entropy-doped ceria systems. Different compositions of Ce1-x(Ndx/4Prx/4Smx/4Gdx/4)O2-δ (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, and 0.20) are synthesized using the oxalate co-precipitation method yielding single-phase oxalate precursors. X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy are used to characterize the precipitated oxalates. Simultaneous thermal gravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry reveal a two-step decomposition of the oxalates into the doped oxide. The ionic conductivity of the samples is measured from 250 °C to 600 °C using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. All samples exhibit similar grain conductivity values at 600 °C, comparable to singly doped samples. However, an increase in total conductivity is observed with an increase in doping concentration up to 15% followed by a decrease beyond this concentration. These findings suggest that multicomponent doping may not significantly enhance the grain conductivity of doped ceria beyond conventional single and co-doped compositions but can modulate the grain boundary conductivity and thus the total conductivity of ceria ceramics. |
