Abstract
Thick films of Sr-substituted LaMnO3 (LSM) were deposited on imperviou s YSZ electrolyte by the screen printing technique. The LSM powders us ed in this investigation were synthesized by autoignition of carboxyla te-nitrate gel. Multiple coatings were applied to increase the thickne ss of LSM layer. Effects of coating thickness and sintering temperatur e on the microstructure and electrical properties of the films were st udied. The properties of the films obtained from the present study, fu lfill the requirements of the cathode of a solid oxide fuel cell.
