The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

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 ...

A research team from two London universities have developed a multi-layer device that addresses the instability of organic materials in water to further their use in direct solar hydrogen generation.

University of Michigan researchers developed a new photocatalytic water splitting system that is reportedly able to reach a 9.2% solar-to-hydrogen (STH) efficiency. The proposed system uses the higher ...

In the wake of the sobering news that atmospheric carbon dioxide is now at its highest level in at least three million years, an important advance in the race to develop carbon-neutral renewable ...

Hydrogen can be produced by electrolysis of water, ideally with solar cells or wind power providing the electrical energy required. This "green" hydrogen is expected to play an important role in the ...

Researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a scandium (Sc)-doped titanium dioxide (TiO 2) semiconductor in the rutile crystal phase. Schematic diagram of TiO 2 facet control and ...
