Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

The purpose is to explore new photocatalytic systems for solar-driven hydrogen generation. This is basic research where we are trying to find "what works" using variations of (new) photosensitizers and catalysts. The results may constitute a foundation for development of new technologies for hydrogen evolution that are environmentally friendly and economical from an energy perspective. However, the great challenge will be to find practical technologies that are economically viable.
