New photocatalytic method for the clean production of hydrogen from water

Hydrogen-powered fuel cells and solar energy are the best hope for a more environmentally friendly and resource-sparing energy supply in the future. Previous approaches to this have suffered from high costs and the limited lifetime of their catalytic systems. Researchers have now introduced an efficient, robust photoelectrode made of common, inexpensive materials.

To restore vision, implant preps and seeds a damaged eye

Researchers trying to restore vision damaged by disease have found promise in a tiny implant that sows seeds of new cells in the eye. They built a mesh through a process called electrospinning, which uses electrical charges to draw biodegradable polymers out of a needle and into a fine stream, producing interwoven fibers ranging from 1/20th to 1/1000th the width of a hair.
