Hybrid Kohn–Sham calculations are performed to clarify the proton‐conduction mechanism in Sc‐doped SrTiO 3 perovskite, from the viewpoint of energetics and bonding. The calculated potential energy curves are discussed and a molecular‐orbital analysis performed. Much hydrogen can exist around doped scandium, where it is energetically stabilized. However, scandium‐doping has no energetic advantage in the activation energy for proton‐conduction. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
