Abstract
Samaria-doped ceria (SDC) overlayers were deposited on Ag cathodes by sputtering. The SDC sputtering time was varied to investigate the properties of the Ag-SDC overlayer cathode-coated fuel cells depending on the thickness of the SDC overlayers. Among the fabricated fuel cells, Ag with a 10-nm-thick SDC overlayer (Ag-SDC10) cathode-coated fuel cell exhibited the highest peak power density of 6.587 mW/cm2 at 450 °C, showing higher performance than a pristine Pt-coated fuel cell. Moreover, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy revealed that the Ag-SDC10 cathode-coated fuel cell significantly mitigated polarization loss originating from enhanced oxygen reduction reaction kinetics compared to the pristine Ag-coated fuel cell.
