ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH UNCONTAINED AIR BREATHING BATTERY

摘要

A portable electronics device includes a case, an electrical plane disposed within the case, and a laminated self-supporting uncontained air breathing membrane electrode assembly (MEA). The MEA includes an air positive electrode, a metal negative electrode, and a solid electrolyte in ionic communication with the electrodes. This arrangement, in certain circumstances, does not require a dedicated casing to surround the MEA—reducing a thickness of the device.
