研究目的
To compare nano and micro (Bi2O3)1-x-y(Eu2O3)x(Er2O3)y stable crystal ternary structures and to determine a suitable dopant quantity which has high electrical conductivity, good stabilities over a wide operation temperature range and demonstrates low activation energy.
研究成果
The size effect provides relatively good structural stability in intermediate temperature SOFCs (IT-SOFCs); also, the nano-Bi2O3 system has the lowest activation energy and demonstrates high electrical conductivity.
研究不足
The study focuses on the comparison between nano and micro structures of double-doped δ-Bi2O3 but does not explore other doping materials or synthesis methods that might offer better performance.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Solid-state synthesis techniques were used to synthesize nano and micro (Bi2O3)1-x-y(Eu2O3)x(Er2O3)y double-doped system materials.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Stoichiometric ratios of oxide micro (1–10 μm) and nano (90–210 nm) particle sized powders of Bi2O3, Eu2O3, and Er2O3 were used.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
AXS D8 Advance XRD Bruker diffractometer, digital scanning electron microscopy (SEM) (Leo 440), TG/DTA (Perkin Elmer Diamond), Keithley 2400 source meter, and Keithley 2700 electro meter.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The samples were compressed under approximately 8 tons for 20 min to produce 13 mm diameter pellets. The solid-state reactions were conducted by using a porcelain pot and highly sensitive ash furnaces under normal atmospheric conditions.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The XRD results were crosschecked with the phases determined from the DTA results. The temperature dependent electrical conductivity measurements of the pellet samples were obtained by using the four-point probe DC method (4PPM).
