abstract = {Owing to their excellent mixed-ionic and electronic
conductivity, fast oxygen kinetics, and cost efficiency,
layered oxygen-deficient perovskite oxides hold great
potential as highly efficient cathodes for solid oxide fuel
cells and anodes for water oxidation. Under working
conditions, cation ordering is believed to substantially
enhance oxygen diffusion while maintaining structural
stability owing to the formation of double perovskite (DP),
thus attracting extensive research attention. In contrast,
the incorporation of oxygen vacancies and the associated
vacancy ordering have rarely been studied at the atomic
scale, despite their decisive roles in regulating the
electronic and spin structures as well as in differentiating
the crystal structure from DP. Here, atomic-resolution
transmission electron microscopy is used to directly image
oxygen vacancies and measure their concentration in
(Pr,Ba)CoO3-δ films grown on SrTiO3 substrates. We find
that accompanied by the presence of oxygen vacancy ordering
at Co–O planes, the A–O (A = Pr/Ba) planes also exhibit
a breathing-like lattice modulation. Specifically, as
confirmed by first-principle calculations, the AO–AO
interplanar spacings are found to be linearly correlated
with the vacancy concentration in the enclosing Co–O
planes. On this basis, potential consequences of oxygen
occupancy for the catalytic properties of structurally pure
PBCO phases are discussed. Through establishing a simple
correlation of oxygen concentration with the easily
achievable lattice measurement, our results pave a way for
better understanding the structure–performance
relationship of oxygen-deficient complex cobaltites used for
electrocatalysis.},
