Influence of bias voltage on the microstructure and physical properties of magnetron sputtered Zr–Si–N nanocomposite thin films
Rosendo Sanjines, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, David Oezer
e report an investigation concerning the influence of ion bombardment on the nanostructure and physical properties of Zr–Si–N nanocomposite thin films. The films were deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering from individual Zr and Si targets. The Si cont ...
2009Modeling Nucleation and Growth of Zinc Grains in Hot-Dip Galvanized Coatings
Hot-dip galvanized Zn-0.2wt%Al coatings on steel sheets exhibit a strong basal texture ({0001} parallel to the sheet plane). Part of this texture call be explained by the faster growth of < 10 (1) over bar0 > dendrites as compared with < 0001 >, granting b ...
Minerals, Metals & Materials Soc, 184 Thorn Hill Rd, Warrendale, Pa 15086-7514 Usa2009Microfabricated solid oxide fuel cells
Micro-fabricated solid oxide fuel cells (µSOFCs) are finding an increasing interest as potential power sources for portable devices such as MP3 players or laptops. The aim of this work was to fabricate a µSOFC demonstrator that works at 500°C and is fuelle ...
EPFL2008Quantitative study of Ni-zirconia anode micro- and nanostructure related to SOFC stack degradation
Jan Van Herle, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Antonin Faes
As the performances of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) get attractive, long term degradation becomes the main issue for this technology. Therefore it is essential to localise the origin of degradation and to understand its mechanisms in order to find solutio ...
2008Redox study of anode supported solid oxide fuel cell
Jan Van Herle, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Antonin Faes
The common technology for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) is based on a cermet anode of nickel with yttrium stabilized zirconia (YSZ), often used as the supporting structure. One of the main limitations of this anode technology is the redox tolerance. In thi ...

2008Methods for quantification of anode support microstructure
Jan Van Herle, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Antonin Faes, Christian Monachon
Degradation observed on long term stack tests may be explained in part by microstructural changes of the electrodes. Particularly at the anode side, the coarsening of nickel particles will affect its performances. Increasing the metal particle size will fi ...
2007Mechanical integrity analysis of multilayer insulator coatings on flexible steel substrates
The cohesive and adhesive properties, and related critical radius of curvature of thin multilayer insulator coatings on a 152 μm thick flexible steel substrate were investigated using tensile experiments carried out in-situ in an optical microscope. This m ...
2007Topography Mediated Patterning of Inorganic Materials by Spray Pyrolysis
A simple technique for microstructuring ceramic thin films by micromachining substrates using standard photolithographic techniques was investigated. The ceramic perovskite is used to illustrate the method because of its importance for the fabrication of e ...
