New film is a step toward ‘artificial leaf" for energy
March 13, 2015 /
Inspired by a chemical process found in leaves, scientists have developed an electrically conductive film that could help pave the way for devices capable of harnessing sunlight to split water into hydrogen fuel.
When applied to semiconducting materials such as silicon, the nickel oxide film prevents rust buildup and facilitates an important chemical process in the solar-driven production of fuels such as methane or hydrogen.
