Researchers from the University of Cambridge have developed an ‘artificial leaf’ that uses sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into ethanol and propanol. These so-called ‘drop-in’ fuels can ...
Scientists have been trying to mimic the energy-generating ability of photosynthesis for decades. The ideal technology would be a device that integrates photovoltaic materials, which convert sunlight ...
At Cambridge University, it’s not uncommon to glance at the River Cam and spot a punt boat crammed with students, or perhaps an emerald-headed mallard floating along the water. A more extraordinary ...
A research team affiliated with UNIST has introduced a cutting-edge modular artificial leaf that simultaneously meets high efficiency, long-term stability, and scalability requirements—marking a major ...
Tiny copper 'nano-flowers' have been attached to an artificial leaf to produce clean fuels and chemicals that are the ...
In an effort to harness energy from wind and rain, Italian researchers have created an innovative system that can be integrated into plants, according to a report by IEEE Spectrum. This new technology ...
What if we could copy how plants create their own energy—and use it to power our world? In a study published last week in Nature, researchers say they’ve created a prototype of a device with the ...
(Nanowerk News) Engineers at the University of Illinois Chicago have built a cost-effective artificial leaf that can capture carbon dioxide at rates 100 times better than current systems. Unlike other ...
Engineers built a cost-effective artificial leaf that can capture carbon dioxide at rates 100 times better than current systems. Unlike other carbon capture systems, which work in labs with pure ...
