A flexible artificial leaf mimics aquatic plants' light-tracking, increasing solar fuel production by up to 866% even at steep angles - without motors or external controls.
Scientists have developed an artificial leaf that uses sunlight to convert COâ‚‚ into hydrocarbons, offering a sustainable ...
The new artificial leaf combines flexible solar-powered electrodes with a protective gel coating. It also incorporates an ...
Tiny copper 'nano-flowers' have been attached to an artificial leaf to produce clean fuels and chemicals that are the ...
The study builds on the team's earlier work on artificial leaves, which take their inspiration from photosynthesis: the process by which plants convert sunlight into food. "We wanted to go beyond ...
A novel solar fuel generator converts CO2 into complex hydrocarbons using a copper nanoflower catalyst and perovskite, paving ...
Quantum mechanics plays a role in the process of photosynthesis. Engineers have long sought efficient ways to convert solar ...
