The Development of Solid Electrochemical Deposition (SED)

摘要

The interfacing of thin film vapor deposition technologies andsolid state electrochemistry has led to the recent development ofsolid electrochemical deposition (SED). Studies have shown that SEDprocesses have fundamental similarities in terms of mass and chargetransport through the solids for further deposition. The emergence ofSED techniques for fabricating fully dense thin-film ceramiccomponents, and creating intimate contact between solid electrolytesand electrodes, has made possible the successful fabrication ofsolid-state ionic devices, such as solid oxide fuel cells andsensors. Furthermore, SED also holds the promise of being used as anexperimental tool to determine the physical properties of differentsolid state ionic materials of fundamental and practical importance.
