Abstract:Reducing electronic leakage is important for improving the performance of protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs) because it can considerably decrease power efficiency. In this work, we explore the efficacy of bilayer electrolytes using BaZr0.8Y0.2O3−δ (BZY) and BaZr0.1Ce0.7Y0.1Yb0.1O3−δ (BZCYYb) as the anode and cathode-side electrolytes, respectively. Theoretical calculations were used to guide the design and experimental fabrication of highly efficient cells. Computational results showed that higher efficiencie… Show more
