For the development of a rechargeable zinc/air battery, La0.6Ca0.4CoO3-catalyzed (perovskite) bifunctional oxygen electrodes and pasted zinc electrodes were prepd. and tested in monopolar zinc/air cells. In addn., a bipolar Zn/air stack was tested using re ...
The catalytic activity for the gas phase combustion of ethylene of an IrO2 film, used as electrode in a solid electrolyte cell, can be increased by polarizing the metal-solid electrolyte interface. The catalytic activity remains higher even after current i ...
A 351-363 nm wavelength argon laser is used to induce pyrolytic laser chem. vapor deposition of platinum, using platinum bishexafluoroacetylacetonate as a precursor. The deposit thicknesses and diams. are presented according to exposure time, precursor pre ...
For the development of a rechargeable zinc/air battery, La0.6Ca0.4CoO3 (perovskite) catalyzed bifunctional oxygen electrodes and 3-D zinc electrodes were prepd. and tested in a bipolar zinc/air battery. In addn., a numerical model for the zinc electrode wa ...
Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stacks are extremely vulnerable to mechanical failures in any of their constituents, which ultimately lead to cell cracking. Like all devices, distinct failure sequences arise from different events or design particularities. Th ...
The effects of hydrogen diffusion on p-n GaAs junctions have been studied by electron beam induced current (EBIC) and cathodoluminescence (CL) at room temperature. Hydrogen passivates both the acceptors in the p-side of the junction and the donors in the n ...
Co-impregnation of vanadia and tungsta on titania produced highly active catalysts for the reduction of nitrogen oxides with ammonia but showed aging tendencies at temperatures around 600 °C. In order to preserve their low temperature activity after hydrot ...
