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 ...

Electrochemical catalysts used in water splitting often show poor performance due to low electrical conductance of (oxy)hydroxide species produced in situ. To overcome this challenge, researchers have ...

Scientists demonstrate a Schottky junction with metallic Ni-W 5 N 4 and n-type NiFeOOH interface to overcome the conductance limit of (oxy)hydroxide species, producing hydrogen gas via water splitting ...

The new electrode design overcomes the low electrical conductivity issue of (oxy)hydroxide catalysts, improving hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions. The electrode combines metallic nickel-tungsten ...
