简介：ThispaperreportstheuseofAufilmstoimprovetheperformanceofthestackedsolidoxidefuelcell(SOFC)basedonthecharacterizationoftheinterfaceandtheadhesionbetweentheelectrodesoftheSOFCsandtheAgpaste.Thespecimensweremanufacturedtoperformtheexperimentasfollows.ASiO2waferwitha300mmnotchwasattachedtotheelectrodesofaSOFCbyaAgpasteandAufilm,whichweredepositedontheelectrodesbysputteringfor1minor5mindepositiontimeandannealedat300Cfor1h.Thefour-pointbendingtestwasperformed,whichresultedintheformationofanextendedcrackatthetiponthewafernotch,andthecrackpropagationwasobservedusingastereomicroscopeequippedwithacharge-coupleddevice(CCD).Consequently,theinterfacialadhesionenergyandtheeffectoftheAufilmbetweentheeachelectrodeandtheAgpastecanbeevaluated.Onthecathode,theinterfacialadhesionenergywithoutAufilmwas2.59J/m2(uppervalue)andtheadhesionenergyincreasedto11.59J/m2(uppervalue)and15.89J/m2(lowervalue)withtheAufilm.Ontheanode,theinterfacialadhesionenergywithoutAufilmwas1.74J/m2(uppervalue),whichincreasedto11.07J/m2(uppervalue)and14.74J/m2(lowervalue)withtheAufilm.Inaddition,theinterfaceareaswereanalyzedbyscanningelectronmicroscopy(SEM)andenergydispersivespectroscopy(EDS)toestimatetheinterfacedelamination.
