Fabrication and Characterization of Functional Ceramic Films by Solution Spray Pyrolysis: Correlations with the Thermal Decomposition Characteristics of the Constituent Salts
Abstract:Thin films of ceramic or ceramic-metal (cermet) electrodes with appropriate structure and morphology are always sought in ceramic fuel cells and electrolyzers. These films can serve as either electrodes or electrolytes in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) or electrolyzers (SOECs) requiring different morphological and structural characteristics for optimal function. Thus, electrode parameters such as thickness, porosity and tortuosity essentially determine the values of gaseous effective diffusivities and subseque… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
