University of Michigan researchers developed a new photocatalytic water splitting system that is reportedly ... that can be directly fed into fuel cells.

Compared to conventional water‐splitting systems, the new device is said to have a better light absorbing path, thanks to the superstrate configuration of the solar cells, without inevitable ...

Scientists have long sought to understand the exact mechanism behind water splitting by carbon nitride catalysts. For the first time, Dr. Paolo Giusto and his team captured the step-by-step ...

“Sunlight-driven water splitting using photocatalysts is an ... For example, the most efficient solar cells in the world struggle to capture 30 percent of the energy in sunlight into electricity ...

A flexible artificial leaf mimics aquatic plants' light-tracking, increasing solar fuel production by up to 866% even at steep angles - without motors or external controls.

A team of scientists based at the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology have developed ‘membraneless’ water splitting technology for the low-cost production of green hydrogen at scale, which could ...
