Abstract
Using the statistical moment method, the analytic expression of vacancy migration energy in yttria doped cerium (YDC) is derived within the fourth order moment approximation. This expression depends strongly on the interaction potentials between the diffusing oxygen ion and the surrounding cations. Our results show the predominant direction of oxygen vacancy migration and the influence of cation barriers on oxygen vacancy diffusion. The dependences of the migration energy on temperature and dopant concentration are evaluated in detail. Calculated results are compared with other theoretical results.
