Preface
Summarizing the initial 10 years of research and development in the field of microfluidic fuel cell and battery technology for electrochemical energy conversion and storage, this SpringerBrief is the first book dedicated to this emerging field. Written at a critical juncture, where strategically applied research is urgently required to seize impending technology opportunities for commercial, analytical, and educational utility, this book is a comprehensive resource for current and prospective researchers in the general area of membraneless, microfluidic electrochemical energy conversion. I have been active in this field
