Researchers at the University of California – Santa Barbara are pretty excited over this new solar cell they’ve been working on, and who can blame them? For the past 100 years or so, everybody’s been tinkering around with solar energy conversion based on semiconductors and meanwhile a promising new field … [continued]
The next generation of low-cost fuel cells could take your home off the grid and free your car from the gas pump with clean, renewable energy, and researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have brought us one step closer to that future. The team has deployed a biomimicry-based hydrogen … [continued]
Titanium dioxide, better known as a key ingredient in white paint, is beginning to carve out an all-purpose spot for itself in the field of air pollution control. While not yet up to the ShamWow standard for range of applicability, this common substance could be on the verge of playing … [continued]
Hydrogen has yet to live up to its full promise as an emission free way to power cars and other vehicles, partly because it is extremely temperamental in terms of handling. Now scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory have found a way to make the cantankerous beast behave like ordinary gasoline … [continued]
