Rare earth-doped ceria thin films are currently thoroughly studied to be used in miniaturized solid oxide cells, memristive devices and gas sensors. The employment in such different application fields derives from the most remarkable property of this material, namely ionic conductivity, occurring through the mobility of oxygen ions above a...

Compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries (SSBs) are characterized by higher safety and energy density, so the key component, solid-state electrolyte (SSE) has received considerable attention. The most common SSEs can be divided into three types: oxides, sulfides, and polymers. This paper mainly presents and discusses...

A structural and microstructural study was performed on several compositions of the Smy(FexNi1-x)4Sb12 system treated at three different pressures during the spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. Aim of the study is to recognize the effect of applied pressure at a fixed temperature on composition, microstrain and domains size, due to the...
