'Artificial leaf' makes cheap and clean energy from water


'Artificial leaf' makes hydrogen from solar cell | Green Tech - CNET News
Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Daniel Nocera thinks he can draw cheap and clean energy from water.
At the National Meeting of the American Chemical Society, Nocera yesterday presented results from research on making an "artificial leaf" to split water to get hydrogen fuel and oxygen. The goal is to use the solar cell to make hydrogen, which would be stored and then used in a fuel cell to make electricity.
