Polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) systems provide an innovative alternative to internal combustion engines and batteries. PEFCs could reduce the negative emissions from transportation engines and diesel power generators, and extend the reliability and lifetime of backup power and portable applications. Critical prerequisites for increasing the market penetration of fuel cells are production cost reductions, as well as performance, reliability and durability improvements. In order to achieve these goals, this research aims to improve fuel cell fabrication and design methodologies, with a focus on using novel micro-fabrication techniques, and innovative computational design methodologies.

聚合物电解质燃料电池（PEFC）系统为内燃机和电池提供了一种创新的替代方案。 PEFC可以减少运输引擎和柴油发电机的负面排放，并扩展备用功率和便携式应用程序的可靠性和寿命。提高燃料电池市场渗透率的关键先决条件是生产成本降低以及性能，可靠性和耐用性提高。为了实现这些目标，这项研究旨在改善燃料电池制造和设计方法，重点是使用新型的微型制作技术以及创新的计算设计方法。
