In a groundbreaking development in Bengaluru, Indian scientists at the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences have engineered a new-generation solar device capable of producing green hydrogen by splitting water molecules using sunlight and readily available materials. Led by Dr. Ashutosh K. Singh, the team designed a unique photoanode using Titanium Dioxide, Silicon, and Nickel Oxide layered through magnetron sputtering, enabling efficient solar water splitting. This advancement is a significant step towards sustainable energy, aligning with India's clean energy mission under the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav initiative. The device boasts impressive features such as high surface photovoltage, ultra-low onset potential, robust durability, and scalability, making it suitable for real-world applications. Dr. Singh highlighted the use of earth-abundant materials and scalable fabrication methods, emphasizing the potential for large-scale hydrogen production solely powered by solar energy. Published in the Journal of Materials Chemistry A, this work has the potential to revolutionize renewable energy systems by offering a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels for hydrogen production in various sectors.
