SOLAR-JET: Fuel directly from sunlight, water and carbon dioxide – potentially a fuel revolution
Stanford scientists Matthew Kanan and Christina Li have created an oxide-derived copper catalyst that converts carbon monoxide to ethanol. The catalyst consists of a continuous network of copper nanocrystals with well-defined grain boundaries. The nanocrystalline network may be critical for producing ethanol, the scientists say.

Stanford scientists discover a novel way to make ethanol without corn or other plants
The top of this image shows how early in the heating, magnetic fields, drawn as black lines, prevent heat from flowing easily between the two yellow laser spots. Later in the heating, as depicted on the bottom half, the moving magnetic fields continually connect and provide a channel for heat to flow between the two laser spots. This newly discovered magnetic behavior could advance nuclear fusion. Image credit: Joglekar, Thomas, Fox and Bhattacharjee
