UCF Professor Sergey Stolbov and postdoctoral research associate Marisol Alcántara Ortigoza Create More Efficient Hydrogen Fuel Cells by making gold and palladium better suited for the ORR reaction. Mar. 15, 2012 — Hydrogen fuel cells, like those found in some “green” vehicles, have a lot of promise as an alternative fuel source, but making them […]

The International Business Times, one of the world’s leading business news organizations, has published an article entitled “More Efficient Hydrogen Fuel Cells Developed by Researchers” about our new approach to rational design of cost-effective catalysts for hydrogen fuel cells published in Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters ( J. Phys. Chem. Letts. 3, 463 (2012)) http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/318299/20120323/more-efficient-hydrogen-fuel-cells-developed-researchers.htm#.Ue-Rj403uSo

An article “Researchers seek to improve efficiency of hydrogen fuel cells” featuring Prof. Stolbov and my work has been published in “The Engineer” the only magazine serving the United Kingdom’s engineering technology community since 1856.
