We demonstrate using a combination of X-ray and neutron diffraction and X-ray photoelectronspectroscopy that Pd2+ ions can be substituted for Ce in perovskite BaCeO3 and that, under oxidizingconditions, BaCe1-xPdxO3- (0 x 0.1) compositions can be prepared. Neutron diffraction has helpedverify that x, implying that Ce4+ ions are substituted by Pd2+ and that a vacancy is concurrentlycreated on the oxygen sublattice. The structure of the host compound and models for Pd substitutionhave also been studied using density functional theory, which has provided a detailed local descriptionof the structure. The Pd2+-containing perovskite phases extrude elemental face-centered cubic palladiumwhen heated in a reducing atmosphere. This elemental palladium is re-absorbed as ions into the perovskitelattice upon heating in flowing oxygen. Evidence for such cyclable ingress and egress of palladium underredox conditions is presented. A curious morphological change that results from the redox cycling ofBaCe1-xPdxO3- is the formation of perovskite nanowires, which we believe to arise from regrowth ofthe perovskite around particles of elemental palladium.
