Summary: | Thin films of Sr<sub>0.98</sub>Zr<sub>0.95</sub>Y<sub>0.05</sub>O<sub>3−δ</sub> (SZY) electrolyte were grown on porous supporting SrTi<sub>0.8</sub>Fe<sub>0.2</sub>O<sub>3−δ</sub> electrodes by the chemical solution deposition method from a low-viscous solution of inorganic salts. The films were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The gas-tightness of the films was evaluated using the differential-pressure method. The across-plane electrical conductivity of 1 mm thick SZY film was measured by impedance spectroscopy and compared to that of a massive ceramic sample. The revealed difference in electrical properties of the film and massive SZY samples indicates that diffusional interaction between the film and the substrate influences the performance of the supported electrolyte. |
