- Abstract
- Single-layer undoped and 10 mol% molybdenum(Mo)-doped vanadiumoxide (V2O3) thin films with thicknesses of approximately 342 nm are fabricated by an aqueous sol-gel method and then deposited onto 316L stainless steel conductive substrates. The influence of various annealing temperatures (in a nitrogen atmosphere) on the structural and electrical properties of undoped and Mo-doped vanadium oxide thin films is investigated. Through a controlled annealing process, the electrical resistances of the single-layer thin films are optimized to attain the required amount of Joule heating for cold-start fuel cell applications within an ambient temperature range (273.15 to 253.15 K). The films show a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) behavior and a transition from a metal to an insulator at sub-zero temperatures. The highest electrical resistivities are measured to be 0.032 Omega.cm and 0.071 Omega.cm for undoped and Mo-doped vanadium oxide films, respectively, after annealing under 20 sccm N-2 at 673.15 K. Consequently, the equilibrium surface temperature of the single-layer Mo-doped vanadiumoxide thin film increases from 253.15 K to 299.46 K upon induced Joule heating at a current density of 0.1 A.cm(-2). Thus, it is concluded that single-layer NTCMo-doped vanadium oxides can be effectively used for cold-start fuel cell applications. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
