YSZ thin films deposited by spin-coating for IT-SOFCs

Ni–Sm0.2Ce0.8O1.9 anode-supported YSZ electrolyte film and its application in solid oxide fuel cells

“…The maximum power densities were 304, 625, 980 and 1270 mW/cm 2 at 700, 750, 800 and 850 • C, respectively. The present fuel cell performance is better than that of previous reported Ni-SDC anode-supported YSZ electrolyte films SOFCs [11].…”

“…There are few publications on application of Ni-SDC anode-supported YSZ films in SOFCs. Xu et al [11] fabricated NiO-SDC anode-supported YSZ electrolyte films by spin-coating and co-firing method. The cell based on this film showed a maximum power density of 535 mW/cm 2 at 750 • C. However, the diffusion at the NiO-SDC anode and YSZ film interface was not investigated in their reports.…”

High‐Mobility Low‐Voltage ZnO and Li‐Doped ZnO Transistors Based on ZrO2 High‐k Dielectric Grown by Spray Pyrolysis in Ambient Air

“…[ 30 , 31 ] Among these, ZrO 2 and HfO 2 are the most extensively studied dielectrics and are widely considered to be excellent candidates because of their relatively high dielectric constants, good thermal stability, and large band gaps. [32][33][34] Despite their attractive properties, however, ZrO 2 and HfO 2 based TFTs are usually realised using stringent and potentially costly manufacturing techniques. [35][36][37][38][39] Here we demonstrate how spray pyrolysis (SP), a simple and large-area-compatible deposition technique, can be used for the processing of high-quality ZrO 2 layers onto glass substrates containing prepatterned indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes.…”

Optimization of spin-coated electrodes for electrolyte-supported solid oxide fuel cells

“…Such technique is based on the deposition by rotation in which a suspension is spread across the surface of a substrate by a centrifugal acceleration. It is a widely used technique in the electronic industry, in microlithography for the manufacture of integrated circuits and for fabrication of antireflective coatings in solar cells [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Spin coating has been successfully developed to fabricate both porous electrode layers and dense electrolyte films for anode supported SOFCs, evidencing the suitability of such deposition technique [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

“…However, spin coating has gained attention as a method to produce thin layers for SOFCs, which can be used for layer depositions for both electrolyte-and anode-supported cells [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Such technique is based on the deposition by rotation in which a suspension is spread across the surface of a substrate by a centrifugal acceleration.…”
