Water splitting—breaking water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen—is a ... This quantum mechanical property allows electron transfer to oxygen generation in a highly efficient manner ...

In a major leap toward sustainable energy, a team of Japanese researchers has developed an artificial photosynthesis system ...

For the first time, Dr. Paolo Giusto and his team captured the step-by-step interactions at the interface between carbon nitride and water, detailing the transfer of protons ... into its constituent ...

There are methods to generate hydrogen more efficiently, though, in a clean and sustainable process. that also produces useful heat and oxygen as ... of money to convert transport and industry ...

When two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom get close enough, the electron from each atom feels an attraction from the protons in the other atom's nucleus. This attraction pulls the atoms together. The ...

Topological chiral semimetals are now explored to facilitate the OER by promoting spin-dependent electron transfer during ... that efficiently produces hydrogen and oxygen in separate cells.
