Magnetron-Sputtered Amorphous Carbon Films for Aluminium Proton-Exchange-Membrane Fuel Cell Bipolar Plates

  • Parnia Navabpour,
  • Kun Zhang,
  • Giuseppe Sanzone,
  • Susan Field and
  • Hailin Sun

Aluminium is an attractive material for proton-exchange-membrane fuel cell bipolar plates as it has a much lower density than steel and is easier to form than both steel and graphite. This work focused on the development of amorphous carbon films dep...
