Abstract: The perovskite-type self doped La1-x MnO 3+ δ was prepared by heat treatment of the gel precursor deposited on a Pt electrode in solutions containing both La 3+ and Mn 2+ ions using catholic reduction electrochemical method. The influence of molar ratio of La 3+ and Mn 2+ in solution, deposition potential and current density on product composition was investigated. Our results indicate that varying the ratio of La 3+ and Mn 2+ in solution, deposition potential or current density can conveniently control the product composition, lattice deficiencies and hence the self-doping level x. In addition, the transport properties are mainly influenced by Mn 4+ content and ion vacancies for the self-doped manganites.
