Ceramic Ion Conductors

Ceramic ion conductors are specialized ceramic materials that efficiently allow certain ions, like oxygen or lithium, to move through them. They are crucial in technologies like solid oxide fuel cells and batteries, where they enable high-performance energy conversion and storage. These ceramics are stable at high temperatures and provide a solid, safe alternative to liquid electrolytes. Their ability to conduct ions while resisting electrical current makes them essential for creating cleaner, more efficient energy systems.
