Nano-scale Glucose Fuel Cells for Energy Harvesting in the Human Body Based on Proton Conduction in Cerium Oxide

Future implantable medical devices such as sensors, drug delivery systems, and electroceuticals require efficient, reliable, and highly miniaturized power sources. To date, the predominant power source of implants is the Li–I2 pacemaker battery, which is limited in its scale-down potential without s...
