The breakthrough is in the new system's ability to bind titanium dioxide (Tio2) a photocatalyst that reacts under ultraviolet light.
and hydrogen by combining these proteins with titanium dioxide and platinum and then exposing them to ultraviolet light.
titanium dioxide only reacts in the presence of ultraviolet light, which makes up a mere four percent of the total solar spectrum.
and connect with the titanium dioxide catalyst: in short, a material like graphene. Graphene is a super strong, super light, near totally transparent sheet of carbon atoms and one of the best conductors of electricity ever discovered.
Electrons from this reaction are transmitted to the titanium dioxide on which these two materials are anchored, making the titanium dioxide sensitive to visible light.
Simultaneously, light from the green end of the solar spectrum triggers the br protein to begin pumping protons along its membrane.
which sit on top of the titanium dioxide. Hydrogen is produced by the interaction of the protons and electrons as they converge on the platinum.
The nanoparticle hydrophilic layer essentially locks in the active ingredient, a hydrophobic chemical called padimate O. Some sunscreen solutions that use larger particles of inorganic compounds, such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide,
as well as highly efficient photovoltaic cells (known as gallium arsenide photovoltaic cells) to convert that concentrated solar energy into electricity. Though concentrated solar thermal power
Its gallium arsenide photovoltaic cells though more efficient than standard PV cells, are not cheap. Add up construction costs and the costs of the fancy cooling system,

The majority of today's wireless devices use gallium arsenide-based microwave chips due to their superior high-frequency operation and power handling capabilities.
However, gallium arsenide can be environmentally toxic, particularly in the massive quantities of discarded wireless electronics.
"I've made 1, 500 gallium arsenide transistors in a 5-by-6 millimeter chip. Typically for a microwave chip that size,
Typical semiconductor lasers for telecommunication systems made of gallium arsenide for example however are costly and consist of elements from main groups III
