| abstract |
A method of making ceramic electrode materials comprising intimate mixtures of two or more components, including at least one nanoscale ionically conducting ceramic electrolyte material (e.g., yttrium-stabilized zirconia, gadolinium-doped ceria, samarium-doped ceria. etc.) and at least one powder of an electrode material, which may be an electrically conducting ceramic electrode material (e.g , lanthanum strontium manganite, praseodymium strontium manganese iron oxide, lanthanum strontitum ferrite, lanthanum strontium cobalt ferrite, etc.) or a precursor of a metallic electrode material (e.g., nickel oxide, copper oxide, etc.). The invention also includes anode and cathode coatings and substrates for solid oxide fuel cells prepared by this method. |
