Nanoperovskite oxides, Ba0.2Sr0.8Co0.8Fe0.2O3−δ (BSCF), were synthesized via the co-precipitation method using Ba, Sr, Co, and Fe nitrates as precursors. Next, half cells were fabricated by painting BSCF thin film on Sm0.2Ce0.8Ox (samarium doped ceria, SDC) electrolyte pellets. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements were carried out on the BSCF powders and pellets obtained after sintering at 900 °C. Investigations revealed that single-phase perovskites with cubic structure was obtained in this study. The impedance spectra for BSCF/SDC/BSCF cells were measured to obtain the interfacial area specific resistances (ASR) at several operating temperatures. The lowest values of ASR were found to be 0.19 Ω cm2, 0.14 Ω cm2 0.10 cm2, 0.09 Ω cm2 and 0.07 Ω cm2 at operating temperatures of 600 °C, 650 °C, 700 °C, 750 °C and 800 °C, respectively. The highest conductivity was found for cells sintered at 900 °C with an electrical conductivity of 153 S cm−1 in air at operating temperature of 700 °C.
