IMDEA Energy Institute develops a new material that open the gates to the solar fuels...
The generation of green fuels (e.g. H2) is nowadays a very important research topic associated to the growing energy demand. Photocatalysis appears as a challenging path to produce H2 just from water. An international collaboration between scientists from Spain and Sweden presents a new highly robust photocatalyst based on a titanium squarate metal organic framework* (MOF...
