Abstract

The low range of A-site deficiency in perovskite structures with Ni cations was verified by neutron powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. A thermodynamic approach has been utilized, for the first time, to predict the extent of A-site deficiencies within the perovskite structure, introducing simple prediction criteria that could be adopted for designing advanced materials.
