  • Abstract
    THz Chemical Microscope can visualize the work function shift of the catalytic electrodes in fuel cells. We observed the variation of the terahertz wave intensity at the cathode and anode under fuel cell operation. From this result, TCM is a valuable tool for investigation and evaluation of the catalytic electrode and electrolyte in fuel cells.
