| Nanoscale platinum could bring hydrogen fuel-cell advances |
|
rowante writes: Researchers from Sandia National Laboratories and the University of New Mexico have developed a new way to mimic photosynthetic proteins to manipulate platinum at the nanoscale...
...Because the porphyrin remains attached to the platinum nanostructure and active in the presence of light, it can also perform other functions besides growing itself. For example, when exposed to light, the platinum nanostructure extracts hydrogen from water. This reaction could lead to new ways of building hydrogen fuel cells for vehicles.
