University of Brescia (UNIBS), a top-level laboratory well-recognized in the field of nanotechnology, will focus on the design and fabrication of an optimized anode based on Nickel Oxide – Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (NiO-YSZ) and Nickel Oxide – Gadolinium Doped Ceria (NiO-GDC) nanowires, also studying the effect of metal/metal oxide decoration on the surface of nanowires.

An optimized cathode perovskite-based material such as La1−xSrxMO3-δ (M = Co, Mn or Fe) (LSM) and LaxSr1−xCo1−yFeyO3-δ (LSCF), obtained by the Pechini method, will be developed by Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian National University (VSPNU).
