Symposium F-3
Materials for the Production of Hydrogen Energy From Water
Scope
Sunlight-driven water splitting reactions are an exciting area of research with the potential to enable large-scale green hydrogen production. The practical application of this technology will undoubtedly pave the way for a sustainable society. To achieve this, it is necessary to develop innovative materials that can produce green hydrogen with high efficiency and to design materials and systems that can be used on a large scale in the future. It is also critical to understand and verify the functionality of such cutting-edge materials and systems involved in sunlight-driven water splitting reactions with state-of-the-art measurement technologies to advance their development. In this session, we will bring together cutting-edge research on synthesis and preparation methods that can effectively activate, stabilize, and scale up functional materials for green hydrogen production from water, focusing on photocatalysts, photoelectrodes, and electrodes for sunlight-driven water splitting reactions, as well as technologies for measuring these materials at different spatial and temporal scales. The goal is to foster interdisciplinary discussions and a deeper understanding of the structure and function of materials for hydrogen energy production from water from both fundamental and technological perspectives.
