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

A catalyst made from manganese, an abundant and inexpensive metal, developed as an alternative to platinum for hydrogen fuel cells.

A water electrolysis technology that splits water into hydrogen and oxygen while shuttling hydroxide ions through an alkaline polymer membrane. AEMWE combines the cost benefits of traditional alkaline electrolysis with the compactness and efficiency of membrane-based technologies.

Research and development of a non-precious-metal catalyst system for anion-exchange membrane water electrolyzers, combining a nanoscale heterostructure of two complementary metal phosphides with a nickel-iron anode.

A nanoscale heterostructure composed of two complementary metal phosphides designed to replace platinum in anion-exchange membrane water electrolyzers. The cathode operates at industry-level current densities for over 1,000 hours without degradation.
