ABSTRACT:
A new type of electrochemical cell which can be used for generating electricity or in an electrolysis mode for producing gases such as hydrogen and oxygen comprises laterally spaced apart or side-by-side catalyst layers as electrodes with the gap between the catalyst layers being bridged by a solid electrolyte which provides an ion conductive path from one catalyst layer to the other. The catalyst layers and the electrolyte are preferably in the form of thin films or layers on the surface of an inert supporting substrate. A plurality of these cells may be disposed on the substrate and interconnected electrically forming a network of series and parallel connected cells. Means are provided to feed fuel and oxidant to the electrodes either as separate gases or mixed together if appropriate catalytic materials are selected.
