Bubbles of oxygen forming from water oxidation, catalyzed by the new tetra-cobalt water oxygen catalyst (WOC). The new WOC is based on the cheap and abundant element cobalt, adding to its potential to help solar energy go mainstream. This “has really upped the standard from the other known homogeneous WOCs,” says Craig Hill. (Credit: Benjamin Yin)
EMORY (US)—Chemists have developed what they say is the most potent homogeneous catalyst known for water oxidation, considered a crucial component for generating clean hydrogen fuel using only water and sunlight. Continue…

Superconductivity in iron compound
CORNELL—A surprising discovery of electronic liquid crystal states in an iron-based, high-temperature superconductor is another step toward understanding superconductivity and using it in such applications as power transmission. (more…)
