The unique interactions between perovskite oxide, its changing surface layer, and iron species that are active toward the OER paves a new path for the design of active and stable materials, bringing us one step closer to efficient and affordable green hydrogen production.

Abstract:
A clean energy future propelled by hydrogen fuel depends on figuring out how to reliably and efficiently split water. That s because, even though hydrogen is abundant, it must be derived from another substance that contains it and today, that substance is often methane gas. Scientists are seeking ways to isolate this energy-carrying element without using fossil fuels. That would pave the way for hydrogen-fueled cars, for example, that emit only water and warm air at the tailpipe.
