Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Description Perovskites are used in a variety of industrial applications, from electrochemical devices such as fuel cells to electronic materials such as capacitors. In all cases function depends upon composition with small changes in composition changing the efficiency of the material greatly. Our contribution to this project has been to identified structural changes associated with a series of compositions, showing that structures can change dramatically across such a series.
Exploitation Route We have identified particular structures and a general approach to addressing the problem of structural series. This can be used by others interested in linking composition to properties.
