Abstract
An electrochemical device () for generating a desired gas of the type includes an ionically conductive electrolyte layer (), a porous electrode layer (), and a current collector layer () that has a high electrical conductivity and is porous to a desired gas () generated by the electrochemical device (). The current collector layer () is substantially formed as a film comprised of a layer of spherical refractory material objects () having a conductive coating () of a precious metal. The coated spherical objects () have a desired diameter () making them suitable for forming into the film.
