Stanford researchers led by Dr. Arun Majumdar have developed photocatalysts combining transport- and reaction-selective nanostructures for direct methanol production.
Stanford researchers have shown how to use fluorescent and phosphorescent materials to provide plants with photons in the photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) range for increased crop yields and CO2 fixation.
Stanford researchers have made an electrochemical redox refrigeration device that provides high cooling power densities without the environmental liabilities of hydrofluorocarbon refrigerants.
Engineers in Prof. Arunava Majumdar's laboratory have formulated high-entropy phase-change materials that can split water to produce hydrogen at moderate temperatures using a scalable, carbon-free process.
