Abstract:
To increase the critical thickness of CeO2 single buffer layer, the polymer assisted chemical solution deposition (PACSD) approach has been adopted to prepare a single buffer layer of Gd0.3Ce0.7O1.85-x (GCO) on bi-axially textured Ni-5%W alloy substrate, and the influences of different annealing temperatures on texture and microstructure of the buffer layer has also been studied in this paper. The results demonstrate that a well textured, dense and smooth GCO single buffer layer with thickness of 180 nm has...
