Solar water splitting is one of the most direct ways to produce green hydrogen using sunlight. However, most photocatalysts ...

Photocatalysis promises an efficient conversion of abundant solar energy into usable chemical energy. Polyheptazine imides ...

Electrocatalysts play a key role in enabling hydrogen generation through water splitting. Among the latest materials under investigation, two-dimensional (2D) materials known as MXenes have shown ...

Hydrogen fuel is a promising alternative to fossil fuels that only emits water vapor when used and could thus help to lower greenhouse gas emissions on Earth. In the future, it could potentially be ...

Hydrogen has long been billed as the clean fuel that could power steel mills, cargo ships and even long-haul trucks without pumping carbon into the atmosphere, but splitting water to make it has ...

Distribution of relaxation times analysis (top) reveals a newly observed satellite peak. The diagrams (bottom) illustrate how recombination mechanisms, such as over-penetration induced recombination ...

(Nanowerk News) In nature, the behavior of systems—whether large or small—is always governed by a few fundamental principles. For instance, objects fall downward because it minimizes their energy. At ...

Using a digital platform called DigCat, researchers identified a low-cost metal oxide that performs both OER and HER in acidic conditions and remains stable over time. Hydrogen can be produced through ...

A research team, led by Prof. Ya Yan from the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and including scientists from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Shanghai ...
