New tools for spying on catalysis at the nanoscale (IMAGE)
Caption
An illustration shows bubbles of oxygen rising from the edges of six-sided, plate-like catalyst particles, 200 times smaller than a red blood cell, as they carries out a reaction called OER that splits water molecules and generates oxygen gas. Researchers from SLAC, Stanford, Berkeley Lab and the University of Warwick have brought together a suite of techniques to study this reaction - a key step in producing clean hydrogen fuel - in unprecedented detail.
