Photosynthesis, the process which energizes plants by breakdown of water using sunlight got artificial. Nocera and his colleagues conducted an experiment in which solar panels were used to power an electrolyzer with cobalt and phosphate catalysts to break down water into its elemental constituents, hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen thus produced was [...]
