Summary:An interconnect assembly for a solid oxide fuel cell includes a porous interconnect comprising a plurality of first wires of a first material and at least one second material combined to form a first portion defining a separator plate contact zone and a second portion defining an electrode contact zone. Various wire weave shapes and pre-buckled architectures are shown such as FIG. 7 shows a substantially trapezoidal shaped cross-section where the cathode-side interconnect (30) comprises first wires (37).
