The utilization of lanthanide perovskite oxides as electrode materials for supercapacitors has garnered significant interest owing to their excellent electrical conductivity, low cost, and excellent thermal stability. In this study, LaMO₃(M=Cr, Mn, and Co) nanoparticles were prepared by the sol–gel method coupled with a calcination process. To evaluate the microstructures, morphologies, and electrochemical properties of the samples, a variety of techniques were employed, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area measurements, cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge/discharge (GCD) cycling, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results revealed that the LaCoO₃ electrodes exhibited a maximum specific capacitance of 118.4 F/g at a current density of 1 A/g, attributed to its higher concentration of oxygen vacancy, larger specific surface area, and lower charge transfer resistance. This discovery substantiates the notion that the electrochemical efficacy is enhanced with the diminishing B-site cation radius in the perovskite LaMO₃ system. The charge–discharge process was employed to investigate the anion-intercalation mechanism of LaMO₃(M=Cr, Mn, and Co).

In this paper, the sol-gel method was used to synthesize powders of LaMnO₃ (LMO), La_0.85Ca_0.15MnO₃ (LCM), and La_0.85Sr_0.15MnO₃ (LSM). The effect of substituting Ca and Sr at the A-site on the perovskite crystal structure and electrochemical capabilities of LMO was investigated. LCM retained its orthogonal structure in comparison to the parent LMO components, whereas LSM transitioned to a rhombic structure. At 0.5 A/g, the specific capacitance of LCM and LSM electrodes is 185.5 F/g and 248 F/g, respectively. The specific capacitance of LCM was three times greater than that of the LMO electrode. Among the three samples (LMO, 22.25 m² g⁻¹; LSM, 31.56 m² g⁻¹), the LCM sample exhibited the highest specific surface area of 38.79 m² g⁻¹. The charge transfer resistances of the LMO, LCM, and LSM are 0.48 Ω, 0.36 Ω, and 0.38 Ω, respectively. The LCM electrode exhibits the greatest capacitance performance due to its more refined morphology, increased concentration of oxygen vacancy, and more complete utilization of the perovskite bulk structure. The above results demonstrate that Ca or Sr substitution of A-site compounds has great potential for supercapacitor applications.

At 0.5 A/g, the specific capacitance of LCM and LSM electrodes is 185.5 F/g and 248 F/g, respectively.The specific capacitance of LCM was more three times than that of the LMO electrode. Among the three samples (LMO, 22.25 m2 g−1; LSM, 31.56 m2 g−1), the LCM sample exhibited the highest specific surface area of 38.79 m2 g−1. The charge transfer resistances of the LMO, LCM, and LSM are 0.48 Ω, 0.36 Ω, and 0.38 Ω, correspondingly. The LCM electrode exhibits the greatest capacitance performance due to its more refined morphology, increased concentration of oxygen vacancy, and more complete utilization of the perovskite bulk structure.
