Cracking the code of performance degradation in solid oxide cells at the atomic level

Dr. Hye Jung Chang and Dr. Kyung Joong Yoon of the Hydrogen Energy Materials Research Center at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) have announced that they have elucidated the mechanism of the initial degradation phenomenon that triggers the performance drop of high-temperature solid oxide electrolysis cell systems, using advanced transmission electron microscopy.
