RESEARCH ACTIVITIES AND PROGRESS ON SOLID OXIDE FUEL CELLS AT USTC

摘要

This article briefly introduces the research activities and progress on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) at USTC. Lab. directed by one of the present author, prof. Meng, in recent ten years. The content includes the following topics: (1) Searching new electrolyte materials for SOFCs; (2) Development of preparation techniques for thin electrolyte membranes on porous anode support; (3) Modification of both cathode and anode by nano-techniques; (4) Tubular CMFCs: low cost fabrication and ceramic interconnect materials; (5) Ammonia fueled CMFCs with proton and oxide ion electrolytes.
