Tubular solid oxide fuel cells

An anode-supported tubular fuel cell stack includes interconnect structures that are oxidation resistant at high temperature, flexible to accommodate thermal expansion stress and to provide strong electrical contact, have low electrical resistance, and are inexpensive and light weight. The interconnect structures may be formed out of metal sheet, which provide improved heat homogeneity throughout the fuel cell stack because of the high thermal conductivity of the metal. The interconnect structures are further shaped to provide resilience or spring-like features to allow movement between the tubular cells. Thus good electrical contact, thermal stress release, and shock absorption are simultaneously achieved.

Structures for dense, crack free thin films

The process described herein provides a simple and cost effective method for making crack free, high density thin ceramic film. The steps involve depositing a layer of a ceramic material on a porous or dense substrate. The deposited layer is compacted and then the resultant laminate is sintered to achieve a higher density than would have been possible without the pre-firing compaction step.
