Problems solved by technology

First of all, the current commercial microprobe heating platform (hereinafter referred to as "hot platform") usually operates at a temperature of 600 °C or below, which is difficult to meet the testing requirements of medium and high temperature solid oxide cathode thin film materials, while those that can operate at temperatures above 600 °C The high-temperature hot stage is usually not equipped with probes for electrochemical performance testing; in addition, due to the small volume of the film material, its thickness is only nanometers, and the surface is only micrometers, but the test accuracy is very high, and it is necessary to test the thin film electrode. The surface is precisely processed to improve its electron transport performance and ensure the effective progress of related reactions in electrochemical tests
