Solar cells use leaves to generate electricity
This innovation, which produces electricity and splits water into hydrogen and oxygen, could transform the way clean fuel is generated. Chinese scientists have developed an artificial leaf that can track the sun's movement, mimicking real plant behavior. And the best part: they work using only sunlight, air, and a bit of humidity. However, scientists have discovered that by. . Researchers led by MIT professor Daniel Nocera have produced something they're calling an “artificial leaf”: Like living leaves, the device can turn the energy of sunlight directly into a chemical fuel that can be stored and used later as an energy source. The solar leaves, reported in the journal Nature Communications, keep cool by. .Read More Download PDF
