A silicon-based microfabricated fuel cell running on formic acid has been developed to provide a high energy and power density power source on the millimeter size scale. A polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell was fabricated utilizing the Nafion™112 membrane bonded between electrodes on silicon substrates. The cell was fueled by a concentrated formic acid-water solution and the catalyst used was Pt. The preliminary result shows that the microfabricated formic acid fuel cell may be a promising alternative for very small portable fuel cell applications.

We have used high-energy X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and diffraction (XPS/XPD), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), high-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS) and temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) to determine the molecular orientation, long-range order, vibrational frequencies, and desorption temperatures for formic acid and its decomposition products on TiO 2(110). Molecular adsorption occurs at coverages approaching one monolayer, producing a weakly ordered (2 × 1) surface structure. High-energy XPD reveals that the formate binds rigidly in a bidentate fashion through the oxygens to Ti cation rows along the [001] direction with an O–C–O bond angle of 126 ± 4°. During TPD some surface protons and formate anions recombine and desorb as formic acid above 250 K. However, most of the decomposition products follow reaction pathways leading to H 2 O , CO and H 2 CO desorption. Water is formed in TPD below 500 K via the abstraction of lattice oxygen by deposited acid protons.
