Abstract

See full text

Solid oxide fuel cells that include an alumina substrate as support are described. The alumina substrate supported SOFCs can exhibit desirable electrochemical characteristics including high performance at intermediate temperatures and excellent thermal stability. The alumina substrate support is formed according to a modified phase-inversion process that forms a series of aligned micro-channels extending from a first side to a second opposite side of the support enabling gas distribution between an electrode (e.g., an anode) located on one side of the alumina substrate and the other, opposite side of the alumina substrate.
