• A-site doped SrTiO is considered as a promising substitute for traditional anodic metals in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). In this study, we present the reactivity of La Sr Ca TiO (LCSTO), La Sr TiO (LSTO), and SrTiO (STO) toward H by ambient pressure NEXAFS spectroscopy and theoretical spectra simulation with FDMNES code. The samples were synthesized by MBE (molecular beam epitaxy), hydrothermal, and modified-Pechini routes. We found that the reducibility of the samples depends not only on their stoichiometry but also on the morphology, which is determined by the synthetic method. The results of these experiments give insight into the reducibility of Ti in perovskites as well as the opportunity to further optimize the synthesis of these materials to obtain the best performance for SOFC applications.
