Abstract
Energy Materials is an interdisciplinary international open access, online journal dedicated to communicating recent progresses related to materials science and engineering in the field of energy conversion and storage. The journal publishes Articles, Communications, Mini/Reviews and Perspectives with original research works focusing on the challenges of sustainable energy for the future.
Highlights
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) show considerable promise for meeting the current ever-increasing energy demand and environmental sustainability requirements as a result of their high efficiency and low environmental impact
According to the traditional concepts of SOFCs, single semiconductor materials are usually considered as electrolyte membrane due to their higher ionic conductivity, with heterostructures constructed from different semiconductor materials having never been considered
Different from the traditional concept where semiconductor materials are widely used in photoelectric conversion and photocatalysis[22], they applied them to replace the electrolytes in fuel cells
Summary
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) show considerable promise for meeting the current ever-increasing energy demand and environmental sustainability requirements as a result of their high efficiency and low environmental impact. Zhang et al.[6], Nie et al.[7], Deng et al.[8], Mushtaq et al.[9], and Afzal[10] successfully applied semiconductor materials in SOFCs by compositing semiconductor and ionic conductor materials to construct SIMFCs with BIEF effects.
