What Are Some Examples of Materials with Enhanced Ionic Conductivity?
Several materials have been investigated for their high ionic conductivity:
Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ): Widely used in SOFCs for its excellent oxygen ion conductivity. Lithium garnets: Known for their high lithium-ion conductivity, making them suitable for solid-state batteries. Perovskite oxides: These materials exhibit high proton conductivity and are used in various catalytic applications. Sulfonated polymers: Such as Nafion, are used in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) due to their high proton conductivity.
