PKU team will prepare and characterize SiC thin film on Si substrate, systematically investigate growth conditions and optimize its mechanical properties. EPFL team will pattern nanopore structures in the film and further fabricate SiC nanomembranes. Together, PKU and EPFL will functionalize the etched SiC pores with appropriate polymer and develop a microfluidic cell to demonstrate the principle of a biofuel cell by using glucose as fuel and enzyme as catalyst.
