Abstract
The present invention generally relates to electrochemical devices such as fuel cells and, in particular, to cathode assemblies for use in such devices. In some aspects of the invention, the cathode assembly contains one or more channels able to transport a gas, such as air. In some cases, the channels may be defined by a cathode current collector and a cathode surrounding the cathode current collector, where the cathode current collector and the cathode define one or more channels. In some embodiments, the cathode contacts the current collector via one or more projections such that the cathode and the current collector are not in intimate contact. The cathode and the current collector, for example, may be in direct contact, and together define one or more spaces or conduits for gas flow. Other aspects of the invention relate to kits involving such cathode assemblies, methods of promoting the making or use of such cathode assemblies, and the like.
