Solid oxide-based electrochemical devices, such as fuel cells, electrolyzers, supercapacitors, batteries, pumps, sensors, and so on, are becoming increasingly important in efforts to solve green energy, environmental, and healthcare issues. Solid oxide fuel cells are promising devices for clean energy production by conversion of the chemical energy of a fuel into electricity. Solid oxide-based electrolysis is an effective technology for the production of green hydrogen which is currently considered the fuel of the future. Oxygen pumping technologies have great potential for use in healthcare, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Valid and reliable solid oxide-based sensors are thus urgently needed for environmental monitoring.
The Special Issue of open-access journal Applied Sciences (Q2 in WOS, impact factor 2.679, MDPI) on “Promising Materials and Technologies for Solid Oxide Electrochemical Devices” aims to cover recent advances and new trends in the development of materials and technologies for solid oxide electrochemical cells and their processing and performance; the modeling, design, fabrication, and testing of cells; and related activities in the field of solid oxide electrochemical devices. Research papers, theoretical studies, and progress reviews are all welcome.
