Proteic sol–gel synthesis of Gd-doped ceria: a comprehensive structural, chemical, microstructural and electrical analysis

Gd-doped ceria (Ce1-xGdxO2-d; x = 0, 0.1 and 0.2) is one of the best ceramic electrolytes for application in solid oxide electrochemical devices. This work reports an innovative and environmentally friendly route known as ‘‘proteic sol–gel synthesis’’ using gelatin for their preparation. Materials a...
