Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of making a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) includes forming a first sublayer of a first electrode on a first side of a planar solid oxide electrolyte and drying the first sublayer of the first electrode. The method also includes forming a second sublayer of the first electrode on the dried first sublayer of the first electrode prior to firing the first sublayer of the first electrode, firing the first and second sublayers of the first electrode during the same first firing step, and forming a second electrode on a second side of the solid oxide electrolyte.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method of making solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), comprising: providing a plurality of planar solid oxide electrolytes, each electrolyte having a first major side and a second major side; forming a first electrode on the first major side of each of the plurality of planar solid oxide electrolytes; stacking the plurality of solid oxide electrolytes into a stack such that the first major sides containing the first electrode of each pair of adjacent…
