Researchers have made a significant breakthrough in photocatalysis, identifying that electrons trapped near metal cocatalysts, rather than free electrons, are crucial for hydrogen evolution. This discovery, facilitated by using a Michelson interferometer in operando FT-IR spectroscopy, overturns previous beliefs and opens new avenues for designing advanced catalysts that could enhance sustainable energy practices. History and [...]
