Order/Disorder and <i>in Situ</i> Oxide Defect Control in the Bixbyite Phase YPrO<sub>3+δ</sub> (0 ≤ δ < 0.5)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The YPrO3+δ system is a nearly ideal model system for the investigation of oxide defect creation and annihilation in oxide ion conductor related phases with potential applications as solid state electrolytes in solid oxide fuel cells. The formation, structure, high temperature reactivity, and magnetic susceptibility of phase pure YPrO3+δ (0 ≤ δ ≤ 0.46) are reported. The topotactic reduction and oxidation of the YPrO3+δ system was investigated by powder X-ray in situ diffraction experiments and revealed bixbyite structures (space group: Ia3̅) throughout the series. Combined neutron and X-ray data clearly show oxygen uptake and removal. The research provides a detailed picture of the Y(3+)/Pr(3+)/Pr(4+) sublattice evolution in response to the redox chemistry. Upon oxidation, cation site splitting is observed where the cation in the ((1)/4, (1)/4, (1)/4) position migrates along the body diagonal to the (x, x, x) position. Any oxygen in excess of YPrO3.0 is located in the additional 16c site without depopulating the original 48e site. The in situ X-ray diffraction data and thermal gravimetric analysis have revealed the reversible topotactic redox reactivity at low temperatures (below 425 °C) for all compositions from YPrO3 to YPrO3.46. Magnetic susceptibility studies were utilized in order to further confirm praseodymium oxidation states. The linear relation between the cubic unit cell parameter and oxygen content allows for the straightforward determination of oxygen stoichiometry from X-ray diffraction data. The different synthesis strategies reported here are rationalized with the structural details and the reactivity of YPrO3+δ phases and provide guidelines for the targeted synthesis of these functional materials.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
