Silicon and gallium nitride (Si/GaN)

A material combination used in the artificial photosynthesis device that exhibits unusual self-improving properties for solar hydrogen production. The material becomes more efficient and stable over time rather than degrading.

Artificial Photosynthesis

A process being researched to replicate natural photosynthesis for the production of alternative fuels like hydrogen. It aims to give alternative fuels the strength needed to break the world's reliance on fossil fuels.

Hydrogen Fuel Cells

Electrochemical devices that convert hydrogen and oxygen into electricity to power electric motors in aircraft.
