Scientists have developed a new technique that doubles the amount of hydrogen produced when splitting water molecules with ...

Hydrogen has long been billed as the clean fuel that could power steel mills, cargo ships and even long-haul trucks without ...

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 is an incredibly powerful fuel, and the ingredients are everywhere—in plain old water. Researchers would love to be able to use it widely as a clean and sustainable energy source. One catch, ...

To explore the reason why water splitting suffers from inefficiency, the researchers applied a sophisticated new light-based technique called phase-resolved second harmonic generation. Shown here, the ...

The photocatalytic water splitting process holds appeal for scientists as a solution to both energy and environmental problems. In this process, water is split into oxygen and hydrogen using light ...

University of Michigan researchers developed a new photocatalytic water splitting system that is reportedly able to reach a 9.2% solar-to-hydrogen (STH) efficiency. The proposed system uses the higher ...

Chemists are working on energy storage and conversion research. This work is part of a new study that solves a key, fundamental barrier in the electrochemical water splitting process where the Lin Lab ...

Metal oxides are a promising catalyst for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting to produce hydrogen as alternative energy. However, their effectiveness is restricted at low voltage. A research ...
