  • High performance cathode with controlled operating temperature range
    Patent number: 8313875
    Abstract: In a solid oxide fuel cell having an anode, a cathode, and a dense electrolyte disposed between the anode and the cathode, the cathode having a ceramic-ionic conducting phase of a plurality of ionic conducting particles and a metallic phase of a plurality of metallic particles. The metallic phase includes a metal alloy having an oxide-to-metal transition temperature in the range of about 600° C. to about 800° C. With this cathode, solid oxide fuel cell operating temperatures as low as about 600° C. may be possible.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 2, 2006
    Date of Patent: November 20, 2012
    Assignee: Versa Power Systems, Ltd.
    Inventors: Anthony Wood, Zheng Tang, Sofiane Benhaddad, Tahir Joia, Kyle Marcotte, David Waldbillig
  • Flexible high temperature cables
    Patent number: 7557300
    Abstract: A high-temperature, flexible conductive cable is formed from a solid copper core, sheathed and hermetically sealed in a flexible stainless steel sheath, which may be corrugated.
