Single-use paper-based hydrogen fuel cells for point-of-care diagnostic applications
The researchers demonstrate a stand-along power source that integrates a paper-based hydrogen fuel cell with a customized chemical heater that produces hydrogen in-situ upon the addition of a liquid. Their approach could power portable diagnostics and enable functionality such as device timing, actuation and signal quantification.
