We develop a paper based fuel cell in which fluids flow through a capillary transport mechanism. The pencil stroked graphite electrodes take oxygen from quiescent air. This simple and efficient paper fuel cell can generate energy to the tune of 32 mW cm(-2) over a prolonged duration of around 1000 minutes, and with the consumption of a very low volume of formic acid as fuel (~1 mL).
我们开发了一种基于纸张的燃料电池，其中流体通过毛细传输机制流动。铅笔划过的石墨电极从静止的空气中吸取氧气。这种简单高效的纸张燃料电池可以在大约 1000 分钟的长时间内产生高达 32 mW cm(-2) 的能量，并且只消耗非常少量的甲酸作为燃料（约 1 毫升）。
