Researchers from the University of Houston (UH) have developed a cobalt(II) oxide (CoO) nanocrystalline catalyst that can carry out overall water splitting with a solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of around 5%. Even with an improved solar-to-hydrogen efficiency rate of around 5%, the conversion rate is still too low to be commercially viable.
