The focus of this project is to develop a biofuel cell that is capable of powering medical devices and mobile electronic devices.
This research involves:
- Fabricating 3-D nanoengineered electrodes using CVD grown carbon nanotubes and electrodeposited nanowires,
- Investigating the direct electron transfer between nanoelectrodes and enzyme redox center, and
- Demonstrating the functionality of miniaturized high power density biological fuel cell.
