Surface Proton Conduction of Sm-Doped CeO2-δ Thin Film Preferentially Grown on Al2O3 (0001)

Abstract Sm-doped CeO2-δ (Ce0.9Sm0.1O2-δ ; SDC) thin films were prepared on Al2O3 (0001) substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The prepared thin films were preferentially grown along the [111] direction, with the spacing of the (111) plane (d 111) expanded by 2.6% to compensate for a l...
