Abstract
Electrocatalytic effects on solid oxide ionic conductors in high tempe rature systems are discussed. The oxygen electrode reaction on a solid electrolyte is depicted. Possible oxygen reduction pathways are revie wed as a function of the nature of the electrode and electrolyte surfa ce. What is meant by electrocatalysis is defined and illustrated in tw o examples: the oxygen reduction on perovskites and on doped yttria-st abilized zirconia.
