Abstract
An apparatus comprising: one or more cells, each cell comprising: a proton conductor region configured to conduct proton charge carriers; a electron conductor region configured to conduct electrons; a first electrode associated with one of the proton conductor region and the electron conductor region; and a second electrode associated with the other of the proton conductor region and the electron conductor region; a removable barrier layer that is impermeable to water vapor extending over and protecting the one or more cells from water vapor; and a buffer layer that is permeable to water vapor between the one or more cells and the barrier layer.
