Efficient current collection and interconnection constitute a bottleneck in the progression of the technology. The development of current collector designs and configuration reported in the literature since the inception of the technology are the focus of this study.application/pdfenmicro-tubular SOFCcurrent collectioninterconnectionohmic polarisationconduction pathway lengthJournal article2076-3417Applied Sciences2021-01-25
