Investigations of perovskite-type BaCeO3 and SrCeO2 with various dopants (Y, Gd, Nd, and Ni) indicate that their microstructures and electrical properties are strongly influenced by the type and amount of dopants. Grain growth and densification of sintered samples are influenced by dopant level and A:B site nonstoichiometry. The conductivity of BaCe1_Y039 increases with the yttrium content in h...
