Laser-burned graphene could replace platinum as fuel cell catalyst

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the Tour Lab at Rice University developed an improved cost-effective approach using direct laser scribing to prepare graphene embedded with various types of metallic nanoparticles. Further doping of the material with sulfur allowed for hydrogen evolution, another catalytic process that converts water into hydrogen.
