To find maximal VPD （MVPD） for anode-supported mtSOFC （as-mtSOFC）, the effects of geometric parameters on VPD are analyzed and the anode thickness, tan, and the cathode length, lea, are identified as the key design parameters. Thermo-fluid electrochemical models were built to examine the dependence of the electrical output on the cell parameters. The multiphysics model is validated by reproducing the experimental I-V curves with no adjustable parameters. The optimal lea and the corresponding MVPDs are then determined by the multiphysics model for 20 combinations of rin, the inner tube radius, and tan. And all these optimization are made at 1073.15 K. The results show that： （i） significant performance improvement may be achieved by geometry optimization, （ii） the seemingly high MVPD of 11 and 14 W/cm^3 can be easily realized for as-mtSOFC with single- and double-terminal anode current collection, respectively. Moreover, the variation of the area specific power density with/cac（2 mm, 40 mm） is determined for three representative （tin, tan） combinations. Besides, it is demonstrated that the current output of mtSOFC with proper geometric parameters is comparable to that of planar SOFC.展开更多

Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the morphology and structure of the multilayered nanowire arrays. Vibrating sample magnetometer and physical property measurement system were used to measure their magnetic and giant magnetoresistance （GMR） properties. The effect of sub-layer thickness on the magnetic and GMR properties was investigated. The results indicate that magnetic properties of electmdeposited nanowires are not affected obviously by Cu layer thickness, while magnetic layers （Ni-Fe and Co layers） have significant influence. In addition, GMR ratio presents an oscillatory behavior as Cu layer thickness changes. The magnetic and GMR properties of the multilayered nanowire arrays are optimum at room temperature for the material structure of Ni-Fe （25 nm）/Cu （15 nm）/Co （25 nm）/Cu （15 nm） with 30 deposition cycles.展开更多
