TL;DR

Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have developed a method to use sunlight and electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, potentially providing a clean energy source. The study, published in Nature Chemistry, explores a system that induces catalysts to self-assemble into globules, improving their ability to absorb light and produce hydrogen. This research could lead to the development of efficient and sustainable energy technologies, addressing the intermittent nature of solar power generation.
