Abstract

Porous single-component fuel cells, made up of a single layer of mixed ionic and electronic conductivity, have been fabricated using spark plasma sintering (SPS) and their performances were tested in methanol. It was possible to optimize the current/power output by changing the sintering conditions which directly influence the grain size, porosity, grain contacts and conducting paths for the fabricated cells.
