At the usual temperature of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) operation, ferritic stainless steels form electrically insulating or poorly conducting oxide scales, which can cause high internal resistance losses and chromium poisoning. In an effort to avoid this problem, we applied conductive copper manga...
