| description | Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) represent a breed of eco-friendly, weather-independent, decentralized power generation technologies, distinguished for their broad fuel versatility and superior electricity generation efficiency. At present, SOFCs are impeded by a lack of highly efficient oxygen reduction catalysts, a factor that significantly constrains their performance. The double perovskites LnBaCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5+δ</sub> (Ln = Lanthanide), renowned for their accelerated oxygen exchange and conductivity features, are widely acclaimed as a promising category of cathode catalysts for SOFCs. This manuscript offers a novel perspective on the physicochemical attributes of LnBaCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5+δ</sub> accumulated over the past two decades and delineates the latest advancements in fine-tuning the composition and nanostructure for SOFC applications. It highlights surface chemistry under operational conditions and microstructure as emerging research focal points towards achieving high-performance LnBaCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5+δ</sub> catalysts. This review offers a comprehensive insight into the latest advancements in utilizing LnBaCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5+δ</sub> in the field of SOFCs, presenting a clear roadmap for future developmental trajectories. Furthermore, it provides valuable insights for the application of double perovskite materials in domains such as water electrolysis, CO<sub>2</sub> electrolysis, chemical sensors, and metal–air batteries. |
