Dr. Ager's research interests include the fundamental electronic and transport characteristics of photovoltaic materials, development of
new photoanodes and photocathodes based on abundant elements for solar fuels production, and the development of new oxide - and sulfide - based transparent conductors.
In two years, the scientists have already pinpointed 12
new photoanodes.

«After watching the
photoanodes run at record performance without any noticeable degradation for 24 hours, and then 100 hours, and then 500 hours, I knew we had done what scientists had failed to do before,» says Ke Sun, a postdoc in Lewis's lab and the first author of the
new study.
According to Business Standard, the
new system utilizes three main components: a membrane and two electrodes — one
photoanode and one photocathode.
Our joint theory - experiment effort has successfully identified
new earth - abundant copper and manganese vanadate complex oxides that meet highly demanding requirements for
photoanodes, substantially expanding the known space of such materials.
