Research by Dr. Manashi Nath, associate professor of chemistry, and colleagues was featured on the cover of the journal ChemSusChem (Chemistry & Sustainability Energy & Materials). The research examines a low-cost and energy efficient way to split water into its elements of hydrogen and oxygen, which would make hydrogen fuel a more viable energy source in the future.
The article, “A Molecular Ni-complex Containing Tetrahedral Nickel Selenide Core as Highly Efficient Electrocatalyst for Water Oxidation,” is published in the Nov. 23 issue of ChemSusChem. Nath’s co-authors are Dr. Jahangir Masud, a post-doctoral researcher at Missouri S&T, and collaborator Dr. Panayotis Kyritsis and his group members, Dr. Polydoros-Chrysovalantis Ioannou and Dr. Nikolaos Levesanos, all from National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece.
