Sm0.2Ce0.8O1.9 (SDC) electrolyte was prepared by a modified solid state method at relatively low sintering temperatures without any sintering promoters. The phase composition and microstructure of the electrolytes were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) technologies. A relative density of SDC electrolyte sintered at 1300 °C reached 97.3% and the mean SDC grain size was about 770 nm. Their ionic conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient were also measured by electrochemical workstation and dilatometer. The electrolyte attained a high conductivity of 5×10−2 S/cm at 800 °C with an activation energy of 1.03 eV and a proper thermal expansion coefficient of 12.6×10−6 K−1.
