University of Birmingham research published today has shown a new low-temperature method for producing hydrogen that is ...

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 ...

Photocatalytic water splitting harnesses solar energy in the presence of a semiconductor catalyst to decompose water into hydrogen and oxygen. Two-dimensional materials, characterised by atomic ...

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 ...

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 ...

Hydrogen is a much-debated option in terms of CO₂-neutral energy production. Electrolyzer units that split water into its constituent oxygen and storable hydrogen are supplied with electricity from ...
