“…Recently, Wang et al [18] reported a 3C-SiC, which was tuned for protonic conducting properties via the construction of an n-p heterostructure composite with Na 0.6 CoO 2 , exhibiting an ionic conductivity of 0.12 S cm -1 at 550 °C. Lu et al [19] reviewed recent progress in lowering the temperature of SOFCs by using semiconductor-ionic conductor nanomaterials. The development in the application of nanostructured pure ionic conductors, semiconductors and their nanocomposites as membranes is highlighted in this review.…”
