  Strain-induced structure and oxygen transport interactions in epitaxial La_0.6Sr_0.4CoO_3−δ thin films

  Strain engineering can enhance oxygen transport in cathodes in solid oxide fuel cells. Here, atomic scale imaging is used to probe local structures in tensile- and compressive-strained La_0.6Sr_0.4CoO_3-δ films, revealing higher oxygen vacancy concentration in tensile films, and vacancy ordering.
