Abstract
This paper reports an improved interfacial structure between electrode and electrolyte of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC). We employed an imprint process to give fine patterns onto a ceramic electrolyte sheet. The imprint process is a powerful tool to transcribe nano- to micro-patterns on materials. In the present work, a sheet of ceramic compound material was prepared, and micro patterns were given on the sheet. After debinding and sintering, dense ceramic sheet with fine patterns were obtained. We prepared three kinds of electrolyte sheets with different surface patterns using this technique. After applying anode and cathode layers, the three fuel cell samples were assembled to test the cell performance. It was resulted that the finer pattern caused the best performance in the three samples.
