Abstract

We have fabricated CeO2 buffer layers on IBAD-YSZ/Hastelloy substrates via dip-coating sol-gel method using inorganic salts as starting materials. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and scanning probe microscope (SPM) were applied to investigate the influential factors in film formation and texture evolution. Flat, crack-free CeO2 films with sharp (0 0 2) c-axis orientation and good texture were obtained by carefully controlling the precursor solution quality, dip-coating and heating process. Compared with IBAD-YSZ/Hastelloy substrates, textures of CeO2 films were effectively improved.
