abstract = {Electrolytes with high ionic conductivity at lower
temperatures are the prerequisite for the success of Solid
Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC). One promising candidate is doped
zirconia. In the past its ionic conductivity has mainly been
increased by decreasing its thickness. However, the
influence of the thickness is only linear, whereas the
impact of migration barriers is exponential. Therefore
understanding the oxygen transport in doped zirconia is of
fundamental importance. In this work we pursue the approach
of the strain dependent ionic migration in zirconia. We
investigate how the migration barriers for oxygen ions
respond to a change of the atomic strain. We employ the
method of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations to
relax the atomic configurations to the ground state. In
connection with the Nudged Elastic Band (NEB) method we
obtain the migration barrier of the oxygen ion jumps in
zirconia for a given lattice constant. Similar to other
publications we observe a decrease in the migration barrier
for expansive strain, but in addition we also find a
migration barrier decrease for high compressive strains
beyond a maximal height of the migration barrier at an
intermediate compressive strain. We present a simple
analytic model which, by using interactions of the
Lennard-Jones type, gives an explanation for this behavior.},
