This paper introduces a correlative tomography technique. It visualizes the spatial organization of primary and secondary phases at the interface of La0.58Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3-delta cathode/10 mol% Gadolinia doped Ceria/8 mol% Yttria stabilized Zirconia electrolyte. It uses focused ion beam/scanning electron microscope tomography (FIB/SEM), and combines data sets from Everhart-Thornley and Inlens detector differentiating four primary and two secondary material phases. In addition, grayscale information is correlated to elemental distribution gained by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy in a scanning transmission electron microscope. Interdiffusion of GDC into YSZ and SrZrO3 as secondary phases depend (in both amount and spatial organization) on the varied co-sintering temperature of the GDC/YSZ electrolyte. The ion-blocking SrZrO3 forms a continuous layer on top of the temperature-dependent GDC/YSZ interdiffusion zone (ID) at and below a co-sintering temperature of 1200 degrees C; above it becomes intermittent. 2D FIB/SEM images of primary and secondary phases at 1100, 1200, 1300 and 1400 C were combined with a 3D FIB/SEM reconstruction (1300 degrees C). This reveals that "preferred" oxygen ion transport pathways from the LSCF cathode through GDC and the ID into the YSZ electrolyte only exist in samples sintered above 1200 degrees C. The applied correlative technique expands our understanding of this multiphase cathode/electrolyte interface region. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
