Artificial photosynthesis provides a blueprint to harvest solar energy to sustain the future
energy demands. Solar‐driven water splitting, converting solar energy into hydrogen …

Computational models are an essential tool for the design, characterization, and discovery
of novel materials. Computationally hard tasks in materials science stretch the limits of …

The four-electron oxidation of water (2H2O→ O2+ 4H++ 4e−) is considered the main
bottleneck in artificial photosynthesis. In nature, this reaction is catalysed by a Mn4CaO5 …

The development of technologies for the production of chemical fuels or useful compounds
with renewable energy (eg, sunlight) and inexpensive feedstocks relies on an abundant …

The sustainable production of clean energy constitutes one of the most important scientific
challenges of the 21st century. Currently, the major part of the global energy supply is …

All cyanobacteria, algae, and plants use a similar water-oxidizing catalyst for water
oxidation. This catalyst is housed in Photosystem II, a membrane-protein complex that …

Melatonin is a well-known agent that plays multiple roles in animals. Its possible function in
plants is less clear. In the present study, we tested the effect of melatonin (N-acetyl-5 …

The dye-sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cell (DSPEC) integrates high bandgap,
nanoparticle oxide semiconductors with the light-absorbing and catalytic properties of …

As the world's population increases, the US Department of Energy has estimated that energy
consumption will increase with it, increasing from 5.7× 1020 J in 2012 to 8.1× 1020 J in …
