  • La9.33(Si5V1)O26 ceramics were fabricated by the mixed oxide method for solid oxide electrolytes. La9.33(Si5V1)O26 specimens showed the hexagonal, space group P63 or P63/m, and the unit cell volume increased when the sintering temperature increased. The specimen sintered at 1,400℃ showed the X-ray patterns of the homogeneous apatite single phase without the second phase, such as La2SiO5 and SiO2. The specimen sintered at 1,400℃ showed the maximum sintered density of 4.93 g/cm3. When the sintering temperature increased, the electrical conductivities increased, the activation energy decreased and the values were 7.83×10−4 S/cm, 1.61 eV at 600℃, respectively.

  • Solid oxide fuel cells have a limitation in their low-temperature application due to the low ionic conductivity of electrolyte materials and difficulties in thin film formation on porous gas diffusion layer. These problems can be solved by improvement of ionic conductivity through controlled nanostructure of electrolyte and adopting nanoporous electrodes as substrates which have homogeneous submicron pore size and highly flattened surface. In this study, ultra-thin oxide films having submicron thickness without gas leakage are deposited on nanoporous substrates. By oxidation of metal thin films deposited onto nanoporous anodic alumina substrates with pore size of $20nm{\sim}200nm$ using dc-magnetron sputtering at room temperature, ultra-thin and dense ionic conducting oxide films with submicron thickness are realized. The specific material properties of the thin films including gas permeation, grain/gran boundaries formation, change of crystalline structure/microstructure by phase transition are investigated for optimization of ultra thin film deposition process.

  • High temperature co-electrolysis of H2O-CO2 mixtures using solid oxide cells has attracted attention as promising CO2 utilization technology for production of syngas (H2/CO), feedstock for E-fuel synthesis. For direct supply to E-fuel production such as hydrocarbon and methanol, the outlet gas ratio (H2/CO/CO2) of co-electrolysis should be controlled. In this work, current voltage characteristic test and product gas analysis were carried out under various reaction conditions which could attain proper syngas ratio.

  • In many applications of functional oxides originally homogeneous materials are exposed to gradients in the chemical potential of oxygen. Prominent examples are solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) or oxygen permeation membranes (OPMs). Other thermodynamic potential gradients are gradients of electrical potential, temperature or uni-axial pressure. The applied gradients act as generalized thermodynamic forces and induce directed fluxes of the mobile components. These fluxes may lead to three basic degradation phenomena of the materials, which are kinetic demixing, kinetic decomposition, and morphological instabilities.

  • 중온형 고체산화물 연료전지용 금속접속자로서의 적용가능성을 알아보기 위하여 Ducrolloy 및 Ferritic 스틸의 산화거동을 연구하였다. Ducrolloy는 고온저항이 주기적인 증감을 보이며 산화크롬막의 형성에 의해 신간에 따라 더 이상의 저항증가가 없어 장기 산화안정성을 보였다. 반면, Ferritic 스틸은 고온산화에 의해 형성된 표면 산화철막의 박리가 일어날뿐 아니라 저항이 크게 증가함을 보여 금속접속자로 응용을 위해서는 내산화코팅이 필요하였다.

  • 중온형 고체산화물 연료전지용 금속접속자로서의 적용가능성을 알아보기 위하여 내산화막을 코팅한 Ferritic 스틸의 산화특성을 연구하였다. Ferritic 스틸은 고온산화로 형성된 산화크롬, 산화철막에 의해 시간에 따라 저항이 크게 증가함을 보였다. 반면, LMO 코팅한 Ferritic 스틸은 Ducrolloy와 같이 고온저항이 주기적인 증감을 보이면서 증가하지만 내산화막의 형성에 의해 80시간 이후에는 저항증가가 없어 정기 산화안정성을 보였다.
