How to Make an Efficient and Robust Molecular Catalyst for Water Oxidation

<p> Energy has been a central subject for human development from <em>Homo erectus</em> to date. The massive use of fossil fuels during the last 50 years has generated a large CO2 concentration in the atmosphere that has led to the so-called global warming. It is very urgent to come...

description <p> Energy has been a central subject for human development from <em>Homo erectus</em> to date. The massive use of fossil fuels during the last 50 years has generated a large CO2 concentration in the atmosphere that has led to the so-called global warming. It is very urgent to come up with C-neutral energy schemes to be able to preserve Planet Earth for future generations to come and still preserve our modern societies&#39; life style. One of the potential solutions is water splitting with sunlight (<em>h&nu;</em>-WS) that is also associated with &ldquo;artificial photosynthesis&rdquo;, since its working mode consists of light capture followed by water oxidation and proton reduction processes. The hydrogen fuel generated in this way is named as &ldquo;solar fuel&rdquo;. For this set of reactions, the catalytic oxidation of water to dioxygen is one of the crucial processes that need to be understood and mastered in order to build up potential devices based on <em>h&nu;</em>-WS.
