The apparent proton conductivity inside a nanochannel can be enhanced by orders of magnitude due to the electric double layer overlap. A nanochannel filled with an acidic solution is thus a micro super proton conductor, and an array of such nanochannels forms an excellent proton conductive membrane. Taking advantage of this effect, a new class of proton exchange membrane is developed for micro fuel cell applications.
由于双电层重叠,纳米通道内的表观质子传导率可提高几个数量级。因此,填充酸性溶液的纳米通道是一种微型超级质子导体,而一系列这样的纳米通道构成了一种优异的质子传导膜。利用这一效应,开发了一种用于微型燃料电池应用的新型质子交换膜。
