A new study identifies how water becomes ionized under electrochemical conditions. Hydrogen is expected to play a major role ...

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 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 ...

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 ...

Japanese researchers are closing in on a long promised energy dream, using only sunlight and water to generate clean hydrogen fuel with no smokestacks or power cables in sight. Their latest technology ...

In recent years, photocatalytic technology has emerged as a promising approach for converting solar energy into storable hydrogen fuel, demonstrating significant application potential in the fields of ...

The material can effectively capture sunlight, using the solar energy for hydrogen production through the photochemical water splitting reaction. Image Credit: Olov Planthaber The material works by ...

Researchers at Tohoku University have developed a stable catalyst suitable for practical use. This stability was achieved through an in-depth study of "reconstruction," a complex chemical and ...

Splitting water molecules takes more energy than calculations suggest, and is a key roadblock to cheap hydrogen fuel production. Now, scientists have discovered why. When you purchase through links on ...
