Structural and Electrical Characterization of Sputter-Deposited Gd<sub>0.1</sub>Ce<sub>0.9</sub>O<sub>2−δ</sub> Thin Buffer Layers at the Y-Stabilized Zirconia Electrolyte Interface for IT-Solid Oxide Cells

The use of a doped Ceria buffer layer and Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) techniques for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) fabrication can limit the former, the formation of electrical insulating lanthanum, and strontium zirconates at the cathode/electrolyte interface, whereas the latter allows a bette...
