Design of new anode materials for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) demands the understanding of properties of Ni/cubic-(c-) ZrO2 interfaces. In this work, we investigate the effect of 9 alloying additions (Ag, Au, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Sn, Sb, and V) on the stability of Ni/c-ZrO2 interfaces. We provide an a...
