โฆ Synopsis
A dense and tightly contacted thin layer of SrZrO -based solid solution could be formed on yttrium stabilized zirconia, 3 YSZ, by high temperature chemical reaction. A water vapor concentration cell using this SrZrO -YSZ junction showed a 3 stable e.m.f. when the SrZrO side was exposed to wet air, whereas it exhibited no e.m.f. when the SrZrO was exposed to 3 3 dry air, suggesting protonic conduction in SrZrO . An oxygen concentration cell showed lower e.m.f. than that of the 3 theoretical at 6008C. A hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell showed asymmetric behavior regarding the used gases. Higher current could be drawn when the SrZrO film was exposed to hydrogen. Higher current passed through the junction when a positive 3 voltage was applied on the SrZrO side. This rectifying behavior did not appear in dry argon.
