Roll-to-roll (R2R) slot-die coating of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) catalyst layers represents a scalable deposition method for producing 10-20 m·min of catalyst-coated gas diffusion layers (GDLs). This high-throughput production technique will help lower the cost of PEMFC catalyst layers. The uniformity of the wet layer applied by slot die deposition is affected by process parameters such as substrate speed, vacuum pressure applied at the upstream meniscus, gap between the slot die lips and substrate, ink rheology, and other ink and substrate properties.

The concept of implantable glucose sensors has been promulgated for more than 40 years. It is now accepted that continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) increases quality of life by allowing informed diabetes management decisions as a result of more optimized glucose control. The focus of this article is to provide a brief overview of the CGM market history, emerging technologies, and the foreseeable challenges for the next CGM generations as well as proposing possible solutions in an effort to advance the next generation of implantable sensor.
